Coconut oil at its best, cold pressed and naturally processed from freshly harvested organic mature coconuts.
NewLife™ Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is coconut oil at its best. It is cold pressed and naturally processed from freshly harvested organic mature coconuts under strict hygienic conditions set by internationally accepted food safety and quality control standards (ISO 22000 and ISO 9000).
The oil has such a light, delicate flavour and aroma that you can take it directly by the spoonful. It is certified organic, certified Halal and Kosher. No chemicals and preservatives are added, so you are guaranteed of a pure unadulterated organic extra virgin coconut oil.
Extensive researches have proven that not all saturated fats are harmful. Coconut oil is made up of beneficial medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) that are easily digested and converted into energy. It improves blood cholesterol profile, promotes heart and artery health. The small molecular size of MCFAs facilitates its penetration into the cell membrane without the need for a carrier protein. Upon entry into the body cells, MCFAs are digested instantly and the fat-soluble nutrients can be absorbed rapidly.
You need not worry as the oil would not end up in your belly! Regular intake of Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is able to rev up metabolism, speeding up fat burning, which is good news for those who want to shed of the extra pounds. Meanwhile, it also contributes to immune boosting and better nutrient absorption. MCFAs have powerful antibacterial, anti-fungal and antiviral properties which are able to relieve infections associated with bacteria, fungus and viruses.
Note: The oil contains natural antioxidant properties of Vitamin E, fatty acids and enzymes. It is rich in medium chain fatty acids which are naturally found in mother’s milk.
- A randomized controlled trial involving 24 healthy overweight men with body mass indexes between 25 and 31 kg/m2 who consumed diets rich in medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) and long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) for 28 days showed that those whose diet are rich in MCFAs had a greater loss in upper body adipose tissue compared to those who take LCFAs, due to increased energy expenditure and fat burning associated with MCFAs intake1.
- Research have proven that monoglycerides found in coconut oil, namely, monocaprin and monolaurin are most active against helicobacter pylori bacteria after 10 min incubation time at room temperature, suggesting that these fatty acids may affect and disrupt the lipid coated membrane of viruses and plasma membrane of bacteria, which would eventually kill them2.
- Lauric acid, a medium chain fatty acid at concentration of 25 μg/mL showed profound anti-Candida activity when tested3.
- Comparison between commercial virgin coconut oil in Malaysian and Indonesian markets revealed that the virgin coconut oil evaluated have higher antioxidant activity denoted by their total phenolic content compared to refined, bleached and deodorized (RBD) coconut oil4.
- Virgin coconut oil with its high polyphenol content was capable in supporting normal cholesterol level and other blood lipid profiles, which included the increase in HDL cholesterol level5.
For adults, take 2-4 tablespoons daily
For children, take 1-2 tablespoons daily

Previously, many have shunned away from coconut oil, believing it to be an artery-clogging saturated fat. This misconception capitalised on people’s fear on how bad saturated fats are. Many, even some health professionals, assume that all saturated fats are harmful to the body. Because of this, coconut oil was replaced with hydrogenated vegetable oils made from soy, corn, sunflower and canola which are perceived as heart-friendly fats.
Unfortunately, as researches continue, scientists finally found out that people who consume partially hydrogenated oil (trans-fat) made of vegetable oils had developed high cholesterol level, and are at greater risk of heart attack than those who did not consume trans-fat. Due to the overwhelming evidence that linked trans-fat consumption to heart disease risk, coconut oil has now received a resurgence of interest in the recent years.

Testimonies
I started to try coconut oil as an enhancer for my immune system. It was a miracle and I noticed my health was improving. I had some sort of fungal growth on one of my fingers. I tried many other products but to no avail. Amazingly, after applying NewLife™ Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil on my finger 3 times a day for only 1 week, the itchiness has gone and my finger recovered about 80%. I’m so happy that I can see my finger is getting better and better.
Later on, I introduced it to my friend who had patches of liver spots on his face. After using it for some time, I was very pleased to see that his liver spots were diminishing.
I will continue to support this marvellous product. Thank you NewLife™ for having such a wonderful product.
