Product Description
Azukar coconut flour is 100% natural and organic and is a wonderful substitute for wheat flour with a gourmet texture. Coconut four is high in protein and is a low digestible carbohydrate and high fiber. Coconut flour is made from fresh organic coconut meat that is dried, defatted and finely ground into a powder very similar to the consistency of wheat flour. The scientific name for coconut is Cocos nucifera. Early Spanish explorers called it coco, which means "monkey face" because the three indentations (eyes) on the hairy nut resembles the head and face of a monkey. Nucifera means "nut-bearing."The coconut provides a nutritious source of meat, juice, milk, and oil that has fed and nourished populations around the world for generations. Nearly one third of the world's population depends on coconut to some degree for their food and their economy.Coconut is highly nutritious and rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. It is classified as a "functional food" because it provides many health benefits beyond its nutritional content. Coconut is also extensively used in traditional medicine among Asian and Pacificpopulations. Pacific Islanders consider coconut oil to be the cure for all illness. The coconut palm is so highly valued by them as both a source of food and medicine that it is called "The Tree of Life." Only recently has modern medical science unlocked the secrets to coconut's amazing healing powers.
