Foodin’s coconut milk
The coconut palm is known as the tree that gives you everything you need for life. Many delicious and healthy products are made from the coconut inside this precious fruit. One of them is coconut milk, which is delicious and nourishing.
Foodini’s organic and creamy coconut milk is made from the white pulp of the coconut. Coconut milk has been a staple ingredient in cooking and rituals in South Asian and Pacific cultures for centuries. Of all plant milks, coconut milk has the longest and richest history of tradition – in many countries where coconut milk has been a staple in the kitchen, it is the main “milk” of the population.
Foodini’s coconut milk originates from Vietnam, where coconut palms are grown on forest farms, supporting biodiversity and farmers’ welfare. Due to its versatility, the forest farm system provides farmers with livelihoods in many ways. Farmers are paid a fair wage for their work, are provided with appropriate training and tools, and their children are educated.

The medical medium (Anthony William) has said that coconut enhances the effects of everything it comes into contact with. It has incredible power. When coconut is combined with any healing food, it combines with and enhances their beneficial properties. The flesh of the coconut (and its oil) is anti-pathogenic because of its lauric acid and other antioxidants, so choose coconut when you need an anti-bacterial and anti-viral food. As coconut moves from the stomach to the intestines, it destroys any pathogens it comes into contact with. In addition, medium-chain fatty acids help break down other fats and carry them out of the body. Read more about coconut on the Medical Medium blog.
