Cold Pressed Virgin Coconut Oil
Benefits of TANAMERA Cold Pressed Virgin Coconut Oil for ‘Baby Massage’
Virgin coconut oil extracted by the cold compression method is considered better than that extracted by the fermentation method, since the oil extracted by fermentation has higher moisture content and goes rancid quicker. Virgin coconut oil undergoes no or very minimal processing. It is subjected to very low, if not totally nil, heat and sunlight
Thus in comparison to ordinary coconut oil, virgin coconut oil is richer in benefits, higher in vitamin content, minerals, medium chain fatty acids, taste, fragrance, and even the amount of protein. Its antioxidant properties are far better than those of ordinary coconut oil. This preserves all the natural goodness of this oil (including a high content of vitamin-E).Virgin coconut oil also does not go rancid easily. VCO can be used for:-

Special Instructions
We recommend keeping VCO at room temperature- above 24 degrees celcius. Pure VCO solidifies at temperatures below 24 degrees celcius – becoming milky white instead of clear and transparent.
If you ever need to melt it, do not put VCO directly on the heat(as VCO is subjected to very low, if not totally nil, heat and sunlight). Instead, put it in a small cup and put the cup in warm water.
