About COCONUT OIL
This product is coconut oil, a vegetable oil derived from the kernel or meat of mature coconuts. As a cooking oil, it is nearly pure fat (93.33g per 100g) and a significant source of calories (867 per 100g), with no measurable carbohydrates or protein. Coconut oil is composed primarily of saturated fatty acids, including medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs).
While coconut oil can add flavor and texture to dishes, its high saturated fat content should be considered within the context of a balanced diet. Dietary guidelines generally recommend limiting saturated fat intake, and individuals should consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian to determine the appropriate role of coconut oil in their specific dietary needs.
