Coconut oil is isolated from mature coconuts and is widely used in food, medicine and manufacturing. Fractionated coconut oil, a specialized form of the oil, has several advantages over the traditional oil. It is more stable and has more specialized uses in certain diets and medicines. Even though it may be more useful, fractionated coconut oil has a couple of disadvantages.
Coconut oil is produced from the mashed meat of mature coconuts and is purified to remove free fatty acids that cause the oil to go rancid more quickly. The quality and efficacy of the oil is dependent on the quality of the coconut and the manufacturing process. Coconut oil is very stable to light and heat due to the high amount of saturated fatty acids. Fractionated coconut oil is further purified to remove longer-chain fatty acids to obtain a product that consists mostly of fatty acids that contain 8 or 10 carbon fatty acids.
Fractionated coconut oil has many advantages over traditional coconut oil since it is highly purified. It primarily contains the fatty acids capric and caprylic acid. Since the majority of the impurities are removed, it is much more stable and has a longer shelf life. It is much more useful in cooking since it will have a purer taste with absence of impurities. In addition, the oil is a better choice for use in health products.
Fractionated coconut oil is widely used in health products, lotions, hair care products and soaps. It is readily absorbed by the skin and doesn't leave a greasy feeling. Since it is thinner than unrefined coconut oil, it is an excellent oil for use in massage. It is also very useful as a carrier oil in aromatherapy products. In addition, it is practically odorless and tasteless and can withstand very high heat, so is ideal for use in cooking
