discoloration. Coconut hair oil soothes and nourishes the scalp and the
hair follicles encouraging rich and lustrous color and abundant growth.
The
benefits of Coconut oil are neither lost in cooking, it is both tasty
and bears many healthy fats and fatty acids. Though coconut oil is
almost 90% saturated fats, these are medium length fats which assimilate
well into the body. They are immediately converted into energy rather
than into stored fat. Principal among these, comprising almost 40%, is
the acclaimed Lauric acid which is found elsewhere only in human breast
milk. Lauric acid is converted in the body into monolaurin which is a
notable anti-microbial and anti-bacterial agent, and essential for
auto-immune support in growing infants, however, adults are not spared
these benefits. Lauric acid and the other fats present provide the fats
necessary for a wide variety of physiological functions and in many
cases improve one’s blood cholesterol profile, making it a good
alternative to partially hydrogenated fats when solid fats are
necessary. Further, the fats in coconut oil are uniquely stable and
resistant to oxidation and rot, making it suitable for high temperature
cooking like frying and for long term storage. Furthermore, the
diversity of fats, vitamins, minerals, and singularly subtle blend of
nutty aroma and taste make it ideal for many recipes. Indeed, you can’t
get a good curry without coconut oil!
Whether
for a soothing massage after a hot summer day or a healthy and filling
curry or stir-fry, one is hard pressed to find a better candidate than
coconut oil. Coconut oil is highly delicious and nutritious for the
stomach and the skin, cooling and moisturizing both. This coconut oil
has a pure and natural flavor bearing many benefits of the tropics for a

Hindi meaning Gopala is ‘The Nurturer of the Cow’. The cow is an
auspicious blessing from Mother Earth for the good of all humankind.
They who care for the blessings which our Mother has given us, care for
the Mother herself. It is through this care that the bountiful provision
which is our inheritance is enjoyed, preserved and multiplied for
ourselves, our children and generations to come. This is our deepest
desire and purpose: that all humanity may have life and have it more
fully. Our name in every way reflects this desire and the means by which
we propose to pursue it. It is for this reason that we use only 100%
organically grown, harvested, and processed herbs in our products,
support sustainable economics, and endeavor to continue the millennia
old tradition of natural and holistic science. The
roots of Gopala Ayurveda reach deep into the rich and ancient
naturopathic tradition of Ayurveda. Utilizing the wisdom of this four
thousand year old science with the technological potential of modern
science we render these ancient formulations in a potent form, all the
while maintaining faithful adherence to the formulae and therapies of
the ancient texts. To this end, we have spearheaded research to develop
Ayurveda’s vast herbal tradition into a comprehensive range of products
to support healthiest and longest lives for our customers. These
