In Panama, Central America coconut oil is drunk by the glass full to overcome sickness. In Jamaica it is considered as a heart tonic. It is used in Africa, the Pacific and Asia as a major source of food and medicine.
Traditionally these people who's diet is high in coconut oil are healthy, have strong physiques, low incidence of heart disease and cancer and are generally resistant to many of the local tropical diseases.

Sococo Coconut Oil – A Quality Oil
Hinako Island is one of a small group of atolls located off Nias Island In Sumatera. These atolls are hundreds of miles from any city and are surrounded by the Indian ocean. There is one motorbike on the island; the area is remote and the air pure. Fertilisers are not used on the islands, the total population is approximately 1500.

The Process
Most inexpensive coconut oils come from copra: the white coconut meat, which is smoked over smouldering coconut husk until dry then transported to a large factory to process with similar copra from a large area. Sometimes oil from this process is bleached and or deodorised to remove the yellow colour or excessive smell caused by the smoke, in other cases the oil is sold, even as cold pressed, containing the residue from the smoke in it colour and taste. Pure coconut oil should be clear like water when liquid and as white as snow when solid.

Sococo oil coconuts do not need to be smoked: as soon as the meat is removed from the coconut it is shredded, pressed, the milk removed and allowed to separate from the oil. There is no need for preservative, as the oil is packaged within 24 hours of being removed from the coconut. As there is no smoking involved, our oil is as clear as water, please compare it to other brands, you may be able to guess which process has been used.
