Everybody loves a product with a story. And the story behind Jungle Product’s Red Palm Oil is so good, it could have come right out of a movie.
Jungle Products CEO Ted Robb and his brother were both diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) as children. SMA is a chronic motor neuron condition which weakens muscles throughout the body and is often fatal. But a passion for natural health and love for her children propelled Robb’s mother on a quest to find a cure.
According to Robb, his mother, a trained biologist, discovered tropical oils while doing Internet research on stimulating the myelin sheaths, the coating that protects the nerves. After experimenting with palm & coconut oil, she was impressed by the healing power of the antioxidants and other nutrients they contain.
Red palm oil contains a rich, balanced mixture of saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, providing a higher level of bioavaliable nutrients than any other vegetable source. Like coconut oil, palm oil is rich in medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), which mobilize body fat stores, increase the metabolic rate and are a great source of energy.
Palm oil is a rich source of antioxidants, especially vitamin E. While the health benefits of Vitamin E are widely know, less widely know is the fact that Vitamin E is a complex of many constituents broken into two groups: tocopherols (alpha, beta, gamma and delta) and tocotrienols (alpha, beta, gamma and delta). And while alpha tocopherol is the form most commonly marketed as vitamin E, the full spectrum of both tocoperols and tocotrienols are required for optimal assimilation.
The super-antioxidant tocotrienols are particularly important for optimal health. These natural antioxidants act as free radical scavengers and are believed to play a protective role in cellular aging, atherosclerosis, cancer, arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers now believe that the tocopherols and tocotrienols together provide constituents that help limit damage during a heart attack.
Jungle Products Red Palm Oil is made from the native Dura Palms of West Africa, harvested from trees that grow along the streams & rivers, and in small scale farms. The oil is purchased directly from a women’s cooperative in West Africa, where it is handmade in small batches to maintain the original integrity. No fruit from commercial plantations is used, and the oil is non-GMO and not refined in any way.
Red Palm Oil is one of nature’s most versatile creations. You can use it in place of any cooking oil for baking, sautéing, frying or spreading. Or, you can take it by the spoonful, or, as new research suggests, rub it on your skin for maximum antioxidant absorption.
Red Palm Oil: A Better Choice For Home and Commercial Use
Prized by the pharaohs of ancient Egypt, palm oil has been used as both a food and a medicine for thousands of years. In this new book, Dr. Bruce Fife N.D. of the Coconut Research Center explores the health-promoting and culinary properties of this remarkable tropical oil.
