Is this coconut oil extracted with solvents or other chemicals? Thank you.

It is refined so Yes they use some chemicals to remove the oil. Only unrefined is pressed without chemicals.

it is in a plastic bottle. Migration from plastics is much less of a worry with aqueous solutions than with oils etc. if that is the reason for your concern i suggest you read up first. http://www.chemicalforums.com/index.php?topic=16282.0P.S. I would highly recommend this product.

The container is plastic, but dark brown. It has a code number of "7". I know that "7" means something, I just don't know what. I do know that this brand coconut oil was liquid when another brand that I had was still solid. I think this means something good... I'm just not sure what? I don't keep my oil long enough to worry about leaching, I don't think?

I don't think so. I don't recall seeing it in the ingredients and I stay away from products with mineral oil.

I'm afraid so. Ingredients: Water, saponified coconut, hemp and olive oils with retained glycerin, organic shea butter (butyrospermum parkii), vitamin e oil (tocopheryl acetate), peppermint oil, sea salt, citric acid and rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis) extract. Ingredients : Purified Water (Aqua), Saponified Coconut and Olive Oils (with retained Glycerin), Hemp Oil, Tocopheryl (Vitamin E), Sea Salt, Citric Acid, Organic Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii), Rosemary (Rosmarinus Officinalis) Extract.

I'm sorry I don't know. I buy the fractionated specifically for blending with essential oils. The label states that fractionated coconut oil used in some skin and hair products. But no directions for this specific product

The ingredients say: Saponified organic oils of coconut, olive, and jojoba, natural essential oil blend, organic aloe vera and rosemary extract. I hope that helps!

Purified water, coconut oil, virgin olive oil, hempseed oil, Jehoba oil, lavender alcohol, sunflower seed oil, glyceryl stearate, non-GMO soy, glycerides from Coconut oil, bran extract, Coco butter, calendula extracts, rosemary extract, chamomile oil, and the million other things.... I have to say that they're pretty good about not having a bunch of icky stuff in their product--think harsh ingredients. I was impressed on that.

This coconut oil is refined .Refining is a very toxic process which gets rid of the characteristic smell and taste of coconut oil.I had bought 4 jars not realizing it was refined and I had to return all.Buy only the unrefined.

I don't think it's oil free. I doesn't claim to be. There's a very long list of ingredients, including cocoa seed butter, mineral oil, and coconut oil. So even though those items are only a tiny percent of the ingredients, I guess that makes it not oil free.

no, sorry I said yesterday, yes, before looking at the bottle. It is Organic Virgin Coconut Oil.

No but it may be used with carrier oil, which could. I mix with coconut oil, as it doesn't clog. I suppose anything could if you use too much. Sometimes I use without carrier.

Ingedients: Organic Coconut Oil (100%). This is exactly the way it appears on the label. Hope this is helpful!

Coconut oil is non-hydrogenated, rest assured. It looks like it because of being white and solid below 76 degrees. I use it to make biscuits but have to be careful handling it as it will turn to liquid in your hands, cut it in with a butter knife. This oil is for the most part a medium chain triglyceride, too, and all MCT's do not require your gall bladder to process the oil as it does literally every other oil, highly recommended for those without a gall bladder. If there is a magic oil, it's this (followed by olive oil), forget the rest. Always make sure they're extra virgin and cold pressed.

Yes but processed so it is a liquid. Virgin coconut oil is a solid but melts around 76 degrees. Either would be a good choice. They do not smell or taste like coconut. Have very little smell or taste. Absorbs into the skin very well. Hope that helps

"EXTRA" virgin, when it is applied to coconut oil, is a meaningless marketing ploy. "There are essentially two types of coconut oil -- virgin and refined. Virgin coconut oil, or VCO, is made by pressing fresh coconut meat, milk or milk residue. Refined, bleached and deodorized, or RBD, oil is made from the coconut copra or dried kernel and may be chemically treated." http://www.livestrong.com/article/266229-what-is-the-difference-between-virgin-extra-virgin-coconut-oil/
