An absolute must in every (Paleo) kitchen is without a doubt: coconut oil. Standard diet rules that this is a BAD choice, since it's a source of saturated fats, but we know better.

Royal Green is a brand by Frenchtop Natural Care Products, a Dutch company located in Hoorn.
Founded in 1979, they produce hair care, skin care, sun care and food supplements. Their products are sold in over 35 countries worldwide.

Why coconut oil?
Coconut oil is a great source of MCT's (Medium Chain Triglycerides) which are metabolized differently by the body. It is shown that MCT's increase energy expenditure by 5% in 24 hours.

About 50% of the fatty acids is Lauric acid, which helps fight off bacteria, fungi and viruses.

Coconut oil is very heat stable, it will not oxidize easily, making it very suitable for baking and frying.

Study shows that it lowers total and LDL cholesterol.

Coconut oil reduces your hunger, causing to you to eat fewer calories and lose weight.

Why Royal Green Coconut Cream?
