Coconuts- perfectly at home in holiday hotspots
Cultivation of the coco palm is a tradition going back thousands of years: indigenous people were even growing coco palms 3000 to 4000 years ago. The prized fruit of these palm trees, the famous coconut, provides a precious flesh, also known as copra. This is the source of the valuable coconut oil.
If you crack open the hard shell of the coconut, you’ll be rewarded with a healthy mix of precious power nutrients. The coconut oil hidden in the flesh contains 90% unsaturated fatty acids, as well as sterols, tocopherols, calcium, amino acids, potassium, sodium, vitamin E, and more. It even has antibacterial properties and provides valuable moisture.
