Desiccated Coconut Powder
Coconut powder is made up of the dried, ground-up meat of a mature coconut. It is typically blended with water and strained to create coconut milk. However, one can also add it directly to different cooked or baked foods for flavoring. Commercial coconut powder is also defatted and contains significantly fewer calories than dried, pure coconut that has been ground
Benifits
Coconut powder contains high levels of healthy saturated fats that the body requires, like MCFAs (medium chain fatty acids). Your body uses MCFAs to assist in supporting a more healthy metabolism, for energy and to help balance your blood sugar levels, among many other things. Coconut powder is also chock-full of fiber.
