Organic Coconut Sugar
Organic coconut palm sugar is a nutrient rich, low glycemic,
unrefined sweetener. Containing high amounts of many vitamins and
minerals such as Potassium, Magnesium, Zinc, Iron, and B Vitamins. With
a low glycemic level (GI-35), this sweetener is a good alternative for
those watching their sugar levels.
Naturally brown in color, palm sugar tastes similiar to brown sugar
with notes of caramel and butterscotch, making it perfect for
baking. Purely Elizabeth's Palm Sugar is sustainably harvested from the
island of Bali
and comes from the nectar of the coconut palm flowers. According to the
Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) coconut palm sugar is
considered the single most sustainable sweetener in the world.
Organic Raw Virgin Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is made up of lauric acid, a medium-chain fatty
acid found in mother’s milk that supports healthy metabolism as well as
offering anti-fungal, anti-viral, and anti-bacterial properties. The
medium chain fatty acids get used as energy rather then being stored as
fat in the body.
For centuries, communities around the globe consumed the coconut for
its high nutritional value. Unfortunately, coconut oil started to get a
bad reputation when studies came out claiming how unhealthy the
saturated fat was. What the studies failed to mention, was the fact
that the oil being studied was hydrogenated (which is the real
problem). It turns out, that unrefined coconut oil has a long list of
health benefits.
Coconut oil is thought to help us to lose weight, lower cholesterol,
improve diabetic conditions and reduce the risk of heart disease. It has
also been shown to fight Candida or yeast overgrowth as well as balance
the flora in the digestive system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why dairy free?
Dairy can be difficult for many people to digest, with almost 40% of
adults in the world lactose intolerant. Research shows it can be
inflammatory in the body- showing up in a variety of symptoms such as
acne, asthma, congestion, cancer and weight gain.
Why gluten free?
Gluten is the protein found in wheat, rye and barley (just to
name a few). According to the Center of Celiac Disease, 1 in 132 people
have celiac disease and 15 times that number have a gluten sensitivity
or intolerance. Reactions to gluten show up in various ways from mucus,
congestion and irritability to diarrhea, constipation and low energy.

grains are a better alternative for the body often causing less
bloating, digestive problems and sometimes hidden inflammation.

Sugar is an addictive substance that wrecks havoc in the body.
