The fresh coconut meat is then granulated using a desiccator and dehydratedly automatic drier at a controlled and at desired temperature to maintain its nutrients.  using a fulOnce the coconut meat is dried, it is then passed through a mechanical pressed using an expeller to extract the Virgin Coconut Oil.

Virgin Coconut oil does not increase blood cholesterol levels and thus does not cause heart disease. Coconut oil has a neutral effect on blood cholesterol, even in situations where coconut oil is the sole source of fat” (George Blackburn M.D., Harvard Medical School). There are two types of saturated fats which are MFCA (Medium Chain Fatty Acids) and LCFA (Long Chain Fatty Acids). The difference between the two types is that MCFA does not raise cholesterol while LCFA raises cholesterol. Coconut oil is composed mostly of MCFA, so it does not raise blood cholesterol nor does it increase the risk of contracting heart disease.

Virgin Coconut oil is less likely to cause obesity compared to other oils. Coconut Oil is composed mostly of MCFA. Thus, it is easily digested by the body and processed as energy rather than being stored by the body as fat.

In another study on coconut oil, results showed that raw coconut oil is neutral and does not cause an increase in the level of cholesterol. The results also revealed that coconut oil also increased the level of HDL (known as good cholesterol) while it decreased the level LDL (known as bad cholesterol) in humans.
