my new favorite oil is a cooking oil and body oil all in one! USDA Certified Organic, Pure Unrefined, Cold Pressed, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil by Carrington Farms. it is amazing! i got this huge 54 oz jar of it at Costco for about $16 to $17. You can get on Amazon too for about the same price. ($16.99 at the time of this posting)...3 months later it is almost gone. i've completely replaced all of the gross toxic vegetable and canola oils that i've been using my entire life and will never go back. i may even end up abandoning my extra virgin olive oil as well. (not that it's bad for you, i just like coconut oil better) - plus coconut oil tastes a lot better in cakes and sweet tasting baked goods, just melt it and use it like regular oil in your recipes.
i use it for sauteing my vegetables, turkey burgers, and baking....i've melted some of it into a separate glass jar and added drops of lavender essential oil to it. YUM! i slather it all over my body after a shower, rub it on my chapped lips. they say you can use it to condition your hair but i'm not convinced walking around with a greasy head is a great look on me, probably you're supposed to wash it out though. lol.
i use it to wash my face (i'll never use soap on my face again) and it works great as an eye make-up remover. you can also use it for "oil pulling" which i've only tried once, but will again....as a personal, ah-hem lubricant? yes! because have you seen the chemicals in KY Jelly?...i haven't made a toothpaste out of it yet, but i'm going to try that also. with so many uses, it's pretty much a miracle oil!
anyway, if you guys are looking for a healthier (possibly the healthiest oil on the planet), you should try this. if you aren't a Costco member, that's okay, because like i said, Amazon will deliver it right to your door and you click this link to go straight to this product! Carrington Farms Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, 54 Ounce $16.99 ...thanks Carrington Farms i give it two thumbs WAY up!
