If you are looking for a healthier cooking oil, the newly launched Medella Red Palm & Coconut Cooking Oil combines the higher qualities of red palm and coconut oil in a first-of-its-kind, nutrient-dense formulation, offering a healthier choice option.
The premium blend is rich in beta carotene, anti-oxidant vitamins A and E and a natural source of healthy fatty acids.
“Malaysians are no stranger to red palm oil and coconut oil, and these two oils are incredibly versatile and well-suited to local cooking styles,” said Medella chief executive officer Edwin Ong at the launch event at Jaya Grocer.
Medella Red Palm & Coconut Cooking Oil is a 50/50 blend of 100% natural premium red palm and coconut cooking oil, treated using a non-chemical process to preserve its quality and nutrients.
With every 15g, it delivers 4.5g of Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs), 3.75mg of vitamin E and 1.13mg of provitamin A.
It is ideal for various cooking styles up to high temperatures, with a neutral aroma and rich hue that comes from naturally-occurring carotenoids found in palm oil.
Red palm oil contains antioxidants such as provitamin A, vitamin E and carotenoids, which have been found to support heart and eye health.
Meanwhile, coconut oil is rich in fatty acids that are linked to improving levels of good cholesterol and resistant to oxidising at high temperatures, making it suitable for high-heat cooking such as frying.
In view of the high rates of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol and obesity, making healthier dietary choices can contribute to better health, alongside other active lifestyle and regular health checks.
Medella Red Palm & Coconut Cooking Oil is free from chemicals, solvents, additives and trans fats, and certified halal.
It is now exclusively available at all Jaya Grocer outlets nationwide.
