Wholistic Pet Coconut Oil

Wholistic Pet Coconut Oil is extra virgin, cold-processed, and unrefined. This certified organic, non-GMO, non-hydrogenated Coconut Oil looks, tastes and smells like fresh coconut because it is made from fresh coconuts!!!

Most of coconut oil’s health benefits come from medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs), also known as medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). One of the chief benefits of Medium-chain fatty acids is that they are efficiently metabolized to provide an immediate source of fuel and energy, enhancing athletic performance and aiding weight loss.

As an antioxidant, Coconut Oil is 50 times more potent than Vitamin E, 15 times more potent than carrots, and 300 times more potent than tomatoes.

Coconut Oil also contains Lauric and Caprylic acid that has anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial and health-protecting properties. When applied topically to cuts, wounds, infected ears, fungal infections, bites and stings it acts to disinfect and promote wound healing.

Many other benefits of using coconut oil include:
Reduction of skin and body odor
Aids in elimination of hairballs and coughing
Aids healing of digestive disorders like inflammatory bowel syndrome and colitis
Contains powerful antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal agents that prevent infection and disease
Prevents and treats yeast and fungal infections, including Candida
Promotes normal thyroid function

Aids in arthritis relief

Improves skin health and hair condition
