Common Problems when buying VCO from Community

The most common problem encountered when buying VCO from the community is, rancidity and high water content. Rancidity is a sign that the VCO has been damaged, the organoleptic not feel fresh. VCO damage from rancidity  is free radicals or free fatty acids that would be bad for the body's metabolism. Long contact between oil and water at the manufacturing process  also accelerate the oil rancidity. Bad packaging also resulted in these rancidity.

While high water content  will make the VCO looks cloudy, visible layer at the bottom of the pack and will accelerate the destruction of oil through the hydrolysis reaction. This high water content caused by phase separation of oil and water are not good, so much water from ending up on oil.

Only fresh VCO  is consumable and good for the health effect. Be careful to get good quality VCO. Select only VCO that has used modern technology to manufacture.
