Product Description

USDA_organicseal_1in.gifWith its rich texture and natural sweetness, coconut flour is a good source of protein. It is high in fiber and low in digestible carbohydrates and a delicious, healthy alternative to wheat and other grain flours.

Coconut brings a wonderful flavor and texture to foods. It can be substituted for flour in cakes, breads, cookies, muffins and any of your favorite recipes that call for flour.

Made from the meat of coconuts after the milk has been removed, coconut flour is loaded with nutrients that offer numerous health benefits.

It is gluten free, thus does not trigger an inflammatory response within the body. It can be used in baking and cooking your favorite desserts and sauces.

Coconut flour contains almost double the amount of fiber found in wheat bran. Fiber has numerous health benefits, from reducing the absorption of sugar into the blood stream, to lowering cholesterol.

A report from the Coconut Research Center states that coconut flour contains more protein per serving than the other leading flours, such as white, rye or cornmeal.

Coconut flour is an alternative to grain-based flours; people on gluten-free diets can use it. For gluten-free cooking, you can use it in combination with other gluten-free flours such as brown rice or amaranth. In regular wheat-based baked goods, you can use coconut flour instead of up to 20 percent of the wheat flour called for in recipes without altering the texture. If using coconut flour, add an additional liquid to the recipe -- equal to the amount of coconut flour you use -- for the best results.

One ounce of coconut flour, equal to about ¼ cup, contains 160 calories. Coconut flour contains 4 g of fat per ounce, all of which is saturated. It offers just 16 g of carbohydrates, with 6 g of protein.

Coconut flour has 8 percent of the daily value for iron, based on a 2,000-calorie diet, per 1/4-cup serving. It also offers 10 g of fiber. Iron helps with your energy levels and red blood cell function while fiber improves digestion.

It's high in manganese. Manganese is helpful in absorption of many different minerals including choline, biotin, vitamin C, and thiamine. It also helps promote a healthy immune system, thyroid health, and also helps to promote and stabilize healthy blood sugar levels.

And it's high in lauric acid. Lauric acid is a healthy saturated fat which is essential for immune health. It is also known to help promote healthy skin and thyroid health.

Ingredients: Coconut Flour. USDA Organic. Certified organic by EcoCert.
