Long Story Short: Refined is great for cooking due to higher smoke point.
Unrefined is great for applying to hair and skin due to natural antioxidants.
Ty da answer I been looking for love you
Gratitude 💚
I realize this video is old, however, relevant. Very informative. Great video!
Of all the videos I've seen explaining these differences, yours is the best!
Thank you TrojanMars1! Glad you found it helpful :)
I said also the best explained
Finally...a video that breaks it all down. Thank you! Can you also tell us the difference between cold and expeller pressed?
I used to use the organic virgin coconut oil. But it's so hard to maintain because it's so expensive. Now I'm trying the refined coconut oil w/ retinol because the price difference is 300% cheaper.
I am guessing you use this for skin care purposes? Glad you found one that works for you!
I love both use it for hair, removing making, cooking,for dry hands ect.
Let me tell u guys this....Virgin coconut oil absolutely has to be in my house. I use it in replacement of lotion. Since I've started using it on my skin, I've noticed how beautiful my skin has been. It's softer and clear. I also made a lotion for after I take my baths at night. I put coconut oil and drops of tea tree oil in a clean lotion bottle with a pump. It works great for eczema and acne. I'd much rather make my own instead of buying these expensive tea tree soaps and lotions that have lots of other things in it.
So you obviously heated the oil and put it in a bottle for the lotion you made? Does it stay clear?
Best comparison of Refined vs unrefined I ever had. It's very easy to undrrsatnd.
Thanks a lot Crystal. May the Lord use you more and more that many people would be blessed by your knowledge
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I'm writing my monthly grocery list and deciding between the virgin and refined coconut options. So glad I found this video, because the unrefined vesrion is very expensive for me and not suitable for what I want to use it for. 👌🏿
Well that's 2021 and this video was made in 2016 and I want to thank you very much for defining the differences in this coconut oil it's been very helpful. I appreciate you
thank you for this important clarification. nutiva coconut oil is my present oil. it is refined, which I hesitated to buy, but a great sale made me do it. so thank you thank you. I feel better now. you were so clear..
My hair love refined coconut oil.
Unrefined Coconut oil is awesome in my hair however it smells so strong. Not sure if refined will work well with my natural hair.
Thank you so much! I love your explanation and that you backed it up with science :)
Thank you Colette!
The best explanation iv ever had
Thanks a lot, very simple explanation of the difference. Today I was in Walmart and could not make a choice :).
I found this to be super helpful thank you very much for the video
Thank you so much! This clears up a lot that I've been wandering about.
I use Unrefined for everything which gets to be expensive.
I just began making a lot of keto desserts which calls for a lot of coconut oil. Would it be a crime If I use Refined for desserts?🤔
Thank you very much for breaking this topic down to me in such plain and concise english.
Glad it was helpful George!
can unrefined coconut oil used for cooking and frying
I HIGHLY recommend UNrefined,
COLD pressed ORGANIC coconut oil !!
no matter what you are using it for !
Justin Case using it for the penus in order to dig deep into Uranus for copper a rare mineral in space with methane gas.👉🏼👌🏼OMG🙈
💩
💩💩
💩💩💩👈🏼COPPER😷cover your nose🙊
Especially if you like your eggs tasting like coconuts. Can't stand UNrefined coconut oil. I always used refined because it doesn't have any taste at all.
@@j-4691 nigga
Sorry I have to disagree with you because the Cold Pressed Organic Unrefined coconut oil tasted horrible when cooked. I made rice, curry, popcorn using that type and had to throw away all my food. And I am one of those people who can literally eat anything.
@@j-4691 Your comment is Not nice and not necessary
This video was super helpful. Thank you for putting this together!
Both are using and in seperate way of it. Cold and hot use is totaly different. This is the nature.
Basically refined for hair and unrefined virgin for cooking y’all.
NostalgiaXOXO thanks
@@roslynwoodall2572 No wrong, refined oil for cooking (higher smoke point). Unrefined (more natural) for body/hair. 3:02
great video thanks! and btw for anyone watching, I'd increase the speed of the video for time saving-sake
Thank you. This was very beneficial as I cooked with organic coconut oil and it tasted so bad. Used it both making popcorn and coconut curry. I had to throw away my entire batch of popcorn and my food. :( What I didn't know what the low flash point of the unrefined coconut oil. I will be purchasing a refined coconut oil for all my cooking from now on and use the unrefined one for my hair and skin. Thank you.
Perfrct lol thsts how i looked at it tberes cooking version and virgin is best for skil and coldness
Thank you for explaining, I greatly appreciate you!💕
I got refined coconut oil clover valley I used it on my hair today I hope it safe on my hair
Which one is sweet which I don’t want… thank you‼️‼️
I really appreciate this video!!! #FamTimeWithLita❤️
Thanks, very informative. I got the refined because of the higher smoke point, then I thought about using it on my sking and really wasnt sure of the difference.
Surely the refining process oxidises the oil making it higher in omega 6?
Wouldn't that would be the most pertinent difference considering the negative effects of omega 6 on people with arthritis and auto immune diseases.
Thank you! This is a helpful video.
Very well explained , To the point. Thanks for sharing etc.
Excellent, thankyou.
I don't cook with it at all, I put on my bread or oatmeal
How about oil pulling? Should I use refined or unrefined
Unrefined is best
Refine by heat we use it for hair and for cooking and its virgin so, i have never had problem with it coz i made it myself. Unrefine only for hair and body. Not much difference at all. I have used both.
Okay so The difference is what? The smell? I just bought refined coconut oil and I don’t know if it was a good choice :/
Wonderful.
But i wouldve at least like to see q montage of photos of coconuts lol. Black screen?
Great and informative...thanks!
William Jackson thank you!
God bless you i find what i need thank you for your information .
How to tell if the refined oil is made with harsh chemicals like petroleum-derived hexane?
Hey, thanks Cystal. I just found some frikin unrefined coconut oil for like $4 for a big jar! I was curious to see if the unrefined was safe to use on my hair or maybe cook with! So thank you for the help!!!! P.s. damn you're beautiful!
Would I benefit my body from having refined organic tablespoon raw coconut oil
Coconut oil it's in original form is kinda gold in color. I see most of these items are white colored. To get the real coconut oil you have to process the dried up coconut. Just saying.
great information! heart heart!
I unknowingly bought refined coconut oil, it is slightly yellow and still has a somewhat strong coconut smell. I contacted the company and they said, they use heat to extract the oil, so is it still good to use it on my skin and hair?
Can i use the spectrum brand organic unrefined virgin coconut oil from publix it comes in a glass jar 14oz can i use it for my daily cooking ? I heard a lot of bad commemta it can you cancer when is throw on the stiring frying pan and the smokes comes up i heard gives you cancer.. Please let me know im so confused
I prefer refined.
Thank you! Very informative!
thank you for stopping by!
Thanks Crystal!

Madiki Khiangte thank u!❤
Staci B welcome..😘
What would be a good coconut oil for whitening teeth, hair & skin uses?
You could use virgin coconut oil!
If it’s going in you body or on your body it should be organic unrefined always! That’s for those who are looking to be as non-toxic to their health as possible.
Thanks for the information sharing!!
So I can't eat my refined cocunt oil for my skin?):
Good stuff❤
Organic and not refined i want it all natural and organic they way GOD meant it to be not processed into un natural resources
yes.i like .thank you.
The internet is really bad at explaining this oil
I think so :( I just bought coconut oil and it says refined I wonder if it was a good choice or not :/
Michi Gt ive been using it and refined is fine. But unrefined is more natural and a little better from what I’ve seen
I went to buy some today and could only find deodorised deflavoured coconut oil, was wondering if the unrefined is better. Thanks for the info😀
you are welcome!
Thank you very much!
Nothing compares to Nutiva Cocomut Oil for me! I bought Cold Pressed Unrefined Extra Virgin by Better Body Foods at a grocery store and it sucked! It did not smell good, did not taste good and really just seemed greasy or just for cooking and only cooking.
thanks for your brand suggestion!
Thanks so much for the info. God bless you always
Thanx...very informative
Is it okay to use refined coconut oil for massage?
Which one is best refined or u refined?
I have both refined and unrefined
Can the 2 be mixed together. Just a thought. Great video. Thank you so helpful 👍❤
👍Thank you. 💞
Thank you dear
God bless you
Use Virgin Coconut oil always, refined(yellowish) oil is not good
Does anyone know if I can use the refined coconut oil for massage body
I purchased some unrefined it tastes funky. i wanna use coconut oil in coffee can i use refined
Yes you can
Thanks so much
unrefined breaks me out, refined doesn't :) go nutiva they don't beach the crap out of their products
Extremely difficult to focus on the info.
thank you for your advice
you are welcome!
thank you
Is there a difference between expeller-pressed, cold-pressed? And I've also heard RAW and Virgin and Extra-Virgin are actually three terms for the same product? No
Expeller pressed uses higher heat to extract the oils, so it would take away some of the possible benefits in oil. If it is expeller-pressed than it would be refined. When it comes to coconut oil I do not believe there is a difference in virgin and extra-virgin, the composition of the oil would be the same (unlike some other oils). There could be some differences in raw and virgin oils, both are minimally processed. At that point when deciphering these terms it can be helpful to look more into the company and not just "marketing terms"
Zen Functional Wellness I bought c.oil from Wal-Mart. It says organic, virgin, expelled pressed, & unrefined.... is this still good for hair, skin (& acne), weight, all the other beneficial things?
Ahhw E-Any interesting it's expelled pressed yet unrefined
Ty!
would it be okay to use refined coconut oil as a makeup remover?
Yes! It is an awesome makeup remover :)
thanks for that🎶😁
hello, i have coconut oil but mines says 100% pure refined coconut oil and i want to use it for weight loss, would that be helpful
Jessica D1mplezz25 virgin or pure "mct" oil may be better, but you will still get the beneficial fatty acids that aid in weight loss from refined coconut oil too
Jessica D1mplezz25 does it smell or something? I just bought refined coconut oil but I don’t know if it was a good choice at all.
is the refined version still a solid?
Dean Avanti yes!
Is it ok to use refined coconut oil in my hair?
yes, that is fine, although virgin may have slightly more benefit it would not be damaging in any way and still very good! :)
I asked my hubby to get me coconut oil n I didn't even think to tell him get unrefined n he got refined Uggg well I'll have to finish this n from now on when I ask him to get me some I'll tell him unrefined,that's what I always get
@@lisaprettypetals I sent a pic of unrefined coconut oil to my dad and he bought refined also😂. It's nice to know that refined coconut oil doesn't damage hair.
Hi, would unrefined organic oil that is expeller pressed good for a skin moisturizer? And also eating? I eat 1tbsp a day.
yes that is fine to do :) great moisturizer and wonderful to eat
Katie Lee Girard is refined good for hair n skin? I have a big container n need to use it up,my hubby got it,I get unrefined
You can definitely use both. unrefined will have more antioxidants that would be good for hair, but if refined is what you have then that is totally okay! They both have the same important fatty acids
Where you bought those plates from though?
They are Fiesta Ware :)
@@Fertilitypotentialprotocol thank you
can i use refined oil for oil pulling?
yes, unrefined is best, but if that is what you have then you can definitely use that
Is refined organic coconut oil good for my hair?
Can I oil pull with refined coconut oil
you can definitely if that is what you have on hand, may be better to do unrefined in the future if you have the option:)
@@Fertilitypotentialprotocol will do.. thank you
You are beautiful and great video!
thank you!
Can i use refind oil for sink? plzz reply me
not sure exactly what you mean by this?
Beautiful lady, for sure.
Is it safe to use it in my tea?
yes totally! Can make tea and coffee a nice and creamy source of healthy fats and energy if you can blend it with an emulsion blender (stick blender)
Zen Functional Wellness , oh well and whats the best option: liquid coconut oil or butter coconut?
