Coconuts are harvested in the Pacific islands and atolls. The pulp is taken out of the shell and then dried under the sun. Coconuts help lower cholesterol and regulate thyroid function. Coconuts with lighter brown shells generally are not as fully matured; the meat is delicious as a snack in itself, or shredded to make fillings and toppings for snack foods, appetizers and desserts.

Coconuts play a unique role in the diets of mankind because they are the source of important physiologically functional components. Coconut Butter/Oil is extracted from mature coconuts that have fallen to the ground. Coconut butter is one of the most medicinal foods on the planet!
