This heart-healthy organic coconut oil is the ideal all-in-one alternative to regular hydrogenated cooking oils. Lemcke brings you a cold-pressed, virgin coconut oil, filled with the goodness of lauric acid and a wealth of other nutrients. Use it for cooking and baking, frying eggs, popping popcorn and making smoothies or salad dressings – you can even spread it on your morning toast or enjoy a spoonful straight out of the jar! Lemcke’s nutritious coconut oil has a unique fatty acid composition and is low in calories, making it better for your heart, digestion and waistline than any other cooking oil.

Our strict ingredient policy means that you can always shop according to your values. Every item on FtN is checked to be better for the environment, socially responsible, good for you and free from toxic ingredients.
Description
  • Cold-pressed from the “meat” of fresh coconut fruit
  • Mild, pleasant coconut flavour & smell
  • Source of medium-chain fatty acids (MCAs) including lauric acid
  • No trans-fats, additives or preservatives
  • Storage: Store in a cool dry place
  • Shelf life: 24 months

Coconut oil the highest smoke point of any natural oil (approx. 180°C) and is highly resistant to heat and light. This means that unlike other cooking oils, it won’t break down and lose its beneficial nutrients at high temperatures.

Please Note: Coconut oil is solid at room temperature but becomes liquid in warmer weather.

Health Benefits of Coconut Oil:

  • Disease prevention: Lauric acid is antibacterial and antiviral, and helps to defend the body against infections. Coconut oil is the richest plant-based source of lauric acid.
  • Immunity: The lipids in coconut oil are antimicrobial, and support a healthy immune system.
  • Heart health: Saturated fatty acids like lauric acid are “good” fats; they work to regulate blood pressure and maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
  • Weight loss: Contains fewer calories than any other oil; MCAs boost your metabolism and burn fat. Coconut oil also supports healthy thyroid function.
  • Digestion: Coconut oil is easier to digest than hydrogenated cooking oils.
  • Nutrient absorption: Improves your system’s ability to absorb other vitamins and minerals.

Did You Know? Apart from coconut oil, the only other known sources of lauric acid are laurel oil, palm kernel oil and human breast milk!

Beauty Benefits of Coconut Oil:

Because of its unique fatty acid profile, coconut oil is a must-have organic beauty product as well.

  • Skin: Makes a richly moisturising hand and body lotion.
  • Hair: Great as a hydrating hair mask or leave-in conditioner.
  • Nails: Keeps nails strong and cuticles hydrated and soft.
  • Ageing: A very effective wrinkle cream, reducing fine lines around the eyes.

Coconut oil can even replace your usual makeup remover or shaving cream!

Directions

  • Substitute for hydrogenated cooking oils when frying or baking.
  • Spread on toast or bread as a substitute for butter or margarine.
  • Mix into smoothies and salad dressings.
  • Simply enjoy it straight from the spoon!
  • Please Note: Recommended daily intake should not exceed 3tbsp a day.

Can't imagine a better tasting or feeling coconut oil.

I use it as a natural sunblock, prevents burning while still creating a beautiful golden complexion.
I oil pull in the morning for tooth and gum health, add to my hot chocolates for an extra fat.
Good quality for price ratio, I keep coming back again and again.

Great product feels and smells amazing.
03/11/2021, By Katlego
Like the oil, it is versatile, hair, face and body. Disappointed that the jar was cracked open at the bottom and got pieces of glass in my fingers as I was unwrapping. Lucky the oil was still a in solid state. Need for a more secure packaging. Now struggling to find a container to hold the oil.
14/07/2021, By Jana
Got this as a gift. Not my preferred brand of virgin coconut oil but it's high quality and comes in a glass bottle.
04/06/2021, By Mitzi
I have been using Coconut oil for years. I started giving it to my late husband who had Alzheimer's. It was recommended as a means to assist in restoring his cognitive function. I particularly like the fact that this is not only a good product but it is packed in glass rather than plastic.

Thicker texture in cold weather, but it melts quickly and is easy to absorb. This is a lovely body moisturiser; it penetrates the skin if used as a leave-on/ overnight treatment -very effective for dry and sensitive skin types.

Great product, will be buying it again :)
10/05/2016, By Malieka
I really love this product. I use it everyday. In my cooking, food etc. Even as a deodorant! Definitely value for money.
20/04/2016, By Sheena
As a family, we have been using coconut oil for awhile, usually obtained from our local store which sells all sorts...so was particularly pleased to find it on FTN.

It is pure, and because it comes from FTN I believe the claims on its extraction process so am comforted that it is of the highest quality. Another point that confirms this is that you need only a small quantity as the quality is great.
08/03/2016, By Anel
I use this coconut oil (alternating with the Soil Stretch mark oil) for my pregnant belly. At 7 months my bellys skin looks so healthy, and no sign of stretch marks! It absorbs really well all over the skin, and love the subtle coconut scent. Lovely on dry hair ends too. The consistency is very thin, and feels like it really gets into the skin and hair.

For food, it is delicious in baked and no bake brownies, for frying bananas, cooling sweet potatoes, or any food that works with a mild coconut flavour. Ideal for cooking because of its health benefits even when used at higher temperatures.
24/02/2016, By Sarah
My mom and I use it and it is an amazing moisturizer and smells great
21/11/2015, By Heidi
Yummy! We use this coconut for all our baking and cooking. I use it to oil pull with and to rub on my little boys body.
29/10/2015, By Binta
This is a delicious and healthy alternative to other oils and I use it as much in the kitchen in cooking, baking and raw smoothies, as I do in the bathroom as part of my beauty routine. Love the smell and texture/taste.
22/09/2015, By Tam
The best coconut oil Ive used so far, smells great, delicious taste.
