When this palm oil is harvested, How many Orangutans are killed/burned/lose their homes to forest fires in the process?

It's ethically sourced. You lose. Take your rant back to Facebook where you belong

If you call palm oil paleo friendly? I recall they had palm oil added! Tasty enough, though. I don't think paleo people used palm oil! :/

I've just counted and apart from the vitamin E there are 6 other oils - so you're correct! The missing oils are Eucalyptus and Rosemary. It's still called Miracle Oil so who knows?

the sugar is shipped from TX It is a "product of INdonesia" I am sorry to say, although I believe it to be one of the healthiest natural sugar options, the process of making coconut sugar destroys the trees! making them unable to produce our precious coconuts for coconut, coconut milk, coconut oil, etc :( I found this out only weeks ago and will no longer support this process... have to find another organic sugar option that is not agave.

probably a lot, if burning pine in a fireplace that's a big mistake as it creates a lot of creosote ( the black, tar-like stuff ) that causes chimney fires.

It is not approved by FDA, for that type of use, so I suspect it would be toxic. Perhaps a Google search for an FDA approved wood oil

Please, please, please do not. Tea tree oil is highly toxic in even small doses when ingested for *humans*. Dogs are even smaller in size (obviously), and are therefore even more vulnerable to tea tree oil toxicity. In fact, it's best to keep tea tree oil away from coming into contact on dog's skin regardless of whether or not they can directly lick that part of their bodies; skin is the largest organ that absorbs "stuff", and it's no different for dogs.

Yes. It states the basic process on the website how their organic virgin coconut oil is made. "To make our Organic Virgin Coconut Oil our supplier starts with freshly harvested coconuts that are de-husked and grated. Then, when the meat of the coconut is still fresh, it's cold pressed and filtered to remove any remaining pieces of the fruit. That's the process. Nothing more. Some coconut oil is extracted using high heat, chemicals and even bleach. Not ours. Producing the oil in this more pure, natural way, we are able to retain the nutrients, flavor characteristics and aromas of fresh coconuts."Retrieved from: http://www.traderjoes.com/fearless-flyer/article.asp?article_id=554Hope that helps. :) Yes.

The tree from which the oil came originally was Indonesian. Now produced in Hawaii.

This is from the Eklund site:We produce our fish oil from wild Anchovies and Sardines from the South Pacific Ocean off the coast of Peru. The Peruvian Fishery is consistently ranked as one of the worlds most sustainable fishing grounds, and in 2008 the Peruvian Fishery was ranked the worlds most sustainable. We consider only the top 5% of raw materials available, selecting fish that are naturally low in environmental toxins, while high in beneficial Omega 3 Fatty Acids. We never use farmed fish, and can trace the source of every batch of fish oil we produce.Then they are processed in Norway.

I certainly hope the animals were not killed for the shell. I will investigate and post on Amazon.

No! This oil does NOT occur in nature. It's what's left after taking out the lauric acid, which is what makes coconut oil, the extremely healthy coconut oil it is. I use it because fractionated coconut oil is easily absorbed by the skin so when you combine it with OTHER products (like essential oils), they absorb into your skin much better because they hitch a ride on the fractionated coconut oil.

It says on the label : Certified Organic Vanilla Beans ( Vanilla Planifolia) Product of Indonesia. Doesn't say anything about the processing

hello, i've nothing to do w/okonatur; i bought it once & had to toss it b/c it was so very bad -- incidentally, i don't think there is any red palm oil that is actually raw (all need some processing heat above the so-called "raw" limit)

No palm oil, just almonds. It's delicious. You have to stir it a bit but it is worth the stir! wonderful product
