Virgin Coconut Oil 250 ML

Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is a type of coconut oil that is extracted from fresh coconut meat (not dried copra) without the use of high heat or chemicals. This helps it retain more natural nutrients and antioxidants compared to refined coconut oil. It is called “virgin” because it is unrefined and pure.

🌴 How It’s Made:

• Cold-pressed or wet-milled from fresh coconut milk or meat.

• No bleaching, deodorizing, or refining involved.
