Title: Coconut Oil or Coconut Cream
Post by: John Worfin on August 04, 2013, 04:11:02 am
I notice that Aajonus suggests eating coconut cream but never coconut oil. I have read many positive benefits around eating coconut oil especially regarding improving brain function. If raw and cold pressed they seem to be very similar in composition save the cream having the coconut meat fiber. I have purchased raw coconut cream from several sources and while I like it I have some reasons why I prefer oil. Coconut cream sours very quickly, always before I finish it. Also the the only raw sources I have found require shipping from out of state. This shipping is very expensive and wasteful with all the cold packs and padding used. I wonder why one could not substitute more easily obtainable and cheaper coconut oil for for coconut cream.

I use coconut oil :).
Sometimes you should let go of the guidelines and try something new!

coconut cream is better because you can make it yourself with the green star juicer and thus ensure that it is 100% raw.

many coconut oils claim to be raw but are not. this is a problem with many other raw foods like raw honey and raw cheese as well.
