Virgin Coconut Oil
The term "Virgin" is used to emphasize that, all nutrients in a nut/seed/ or fruit is preserved when it is converted to the format of oil. For example if leafy greens or veggies are cooked components like vitamins, anti-oxidants, are lost and the maturation percentage of each nutrient is a bit altered. Thus, if an oil (coconut, olive, avocado) is termed "virgin", the original fruit/nut is "COLD-PRESSED" (Like squeezing out oil of a fruit or seed by hand or in Sekkuwa. There is no high heat generation). The fruits/nuts used for the pressing should also be fresh in its original form. It cannot be dried in sunlight for weeks (like in copra), or heated with fire to take out moisture.
