Dr. Bronner's - Organic Virgin Coconut Oil (Whole Kernel, 14 Ounce) - Coconut Oil for Cooking, Baking, Hair & Body, Unrefined & Fresh-Pressed, Rich & Nutty Flavor, Fair Trade, Vegan, Non-GMO

Honestly I’ve hated coconut oil, and anything coconut-related since I was a kid which was always heartbreaking given my awareness of its benefits. I decided to give Dr. Bronner’s a try one day and I can easily say It’s the best coconut oil on the market, that I have officially been a DB coconut oil lover ever since and that i’m never going back. To me it’s reminiscent of buttery popcorn with a lovely rich flavor/soft melty texture, while also being up to my standards in terms of quality (fair trade/regenerative/ USDA organic certification). I now use it for cooking foods stovetop, to tempering chocolate, to baked goods, to having my dog take his morning enzyme capsules in a small ball of this coconut oil too every morning (which he LOVES). I actually bought myself a new jar to restock just in time for Christmas, and have now been able to slowly venture out in terms of coconut related food attempts. I am Super thankful for this product because after 33 years of despising coconuts I can say I love Dr. Bronner’s.

I’d always read about people who eat coconut oil by the spoon but I could never do that until I found this. I’ve been using Dr. Bronner’s various soaps for 30 years and they are one of my favorite companies. I got some of this to try and I am sold. It’s absolutely delicious. The flavor is so superior to other coconut oils that it’s a treat. My dogs and cats also love it. It is expensive but it’s absolutely worth every penny. Dr. Bronner’s is a company I trust without reservation, on both the quality of their amazing products and the ethics of their production and sourcing. There is a reason they have been around for so long and have such devoted customers. I won’t be without this!

Great product and fast delivery. Coconut oil is great for dry skin. Dr. Bronners Virgin Coconut Oil — was tested and found to have one of the lowest levels of Phthalates = 126 ppb Coconut Oils with the Least Contamination are much safer to use. Scientific experts in endocrine disruption are deeply concerned about the simultaneous effect of the mixtures of phthalates present in food supplies and cooking oils. Phthalates Have Specific Problematic Health Effects: Phthalates are linked to many health effects from several studies on both animals and humans. This is very problematic because phthalates are linked with hormone disruption of the endocrine system, which regulates the body’s hormones, even in trace amounts in low concentrations. Epidemiological studies have revealed that exposure to phthalates adversely affects the level of hormones within the body, which can impact several important health functions. Here are some health effects phthalate exposure is linked to. • Weight gain & obesity • Shorter height • Precocious puberty • Asthma • Allergies • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) • Lower IQ • Social impairment • Type II diabetes and insulin resistance • Poor cardiovascular health • Thyroid function and increased risk of thyroid cancer • Females: pregnancy loss and preterm birth, low birth weight, earlier menopause • Males: genital development, semen quality, reduced “masculine” play, Inhibits testosterone production, Shortened anogenital distance, or shortened “taint” , Shortened length of penis Phthalates are anti-androgens—they disrupt male hormone action. Currently, highly chemicalized countries like America are experiencing a steady drop in male fertility, quantified through a population-level decline in mean sperm count and quality. Phthalate exposures are suspected of playing a role in the declines. Phthalate contamination of food oils is completely unacceptable! Like the olive oil manufacturers, the coconut oil manufacturers should begin acting to better protect their customers by rummaging through every aspect of their supply and manufacturing chains to ensure that all phthalates are eliminated. And then they should learn much more about endocrine disruption and become extremely diligent in producing products that are free of endocrine-disrupting chemicals. One has to wonder why the FDA appears to be asleep on the job.”

Wonderful product !! It smells fantastic the moisture level is the best.

I use this product for pumping breast milk as it is supposed to provide anti microbial and antiviral properties. It makes my skin super soft and eases any discomfort. The coconut oil has a great smell to it and is high quality. Melts perfectly! Definitely get your moneys worth out of this product.

Hands down best coconut oil. The aroma is amazing too.

My skin is always dry when I use regular lotion. so, I use the coconut oil and mix some castor oil with it and use that as a moisturizer! my skin stays hydrated all day! love it!

Please be aware that while (IMHO) this is the very best of the coconut oils... the product picture is deceitful. This is actually the 14 OUNCE jar of coconut oil and not the 30 OUNCE jar that I normally buy for this price. It looks like the exact same thing in the picture but this is actually the SMALLER size. So I am not happy to have paid so much for the little 14oz jar... and (of course) it is not returnable.
