I have not used this particular brand, but I use safflower oil for stir-frying because it has one of the highest smoke points of any vegetable oil.

Check out Young Living web site, but all their products are of high grade quality, you can even eat them. The specifics, I'm not sure of. If you check the web site, they list all the details of each oil.

It is not olive oil. You should research it so you know what you are getting. Some people feel it is safe, others think it is a very unhealthy oil. I use this particular brand because it is non-GMO.

Fish oil is healthy when ingested. Unless you're going to eat the fish oil soap, I don't think there's much point :)

I contacted the company with the same question and here is their answer: "Yes Food Grade. These are the highest grade oils. Top quality Lemon and many other Essential oils are very popular in cooking & baking applications among others particularly during the holiday season so in that way are fine for internal use and when properly diluted external use as well. But due to their powerful pure undiluted nature they can be irritating or toxic if not used at appropriate levels and dilutions. A few drops of lemon oil in a glass of drinking water or a small amount of topical lotion is much too powerful for example. One needs to often think of distributing fractions of a drop in a carriar oil like olive oil or grapeseed oil. Always follow recipes or protocols strictly."

The coconut solids are delicious. If the oil has separated to the top, I scrape it off and use it as cooking oil. I use it in smoothies and cookies for an intense coconut flavor. I don't know exactly what coconut butter is. But this stuff is truly delicious.

From the now food site: "A lot of people ask if our essential oils are edible. The answer for most is "Yes, but..." Essential oils are typically labeled For External Use Only as a warning to use them very cautiously, even such pure edible oils as those from lemon or orange peels. Essential oils are very strong and even non-toxic ones may be irritating or uncomfortable if not used carefully and sparingly. If you use a recipe, a greater measure of both success and safety is more assured. The book Aromatherapy for Everyone is co-written by a NOW herbal specialist."

Yes! I have used veg glycerine for years as a solvent in preparing herbal medicines. Some consider it the best edible preservative on the planet. More than likely you have already eaten glycerine and did not know it - it is in 1000s of foods.

Aloha Audrey, I would not eat this oil, just use it on your skin and pillows. Very pleasant to sleep with the fragrance.

Hi Nikki . Well , although these oils are 100% pure and certainly there is nothing about them to harm you , they are also certainly not created as a food flavoring . They work as a fabulous ingredient in all of my home made skin and hair care products .

According to all the research I've done on coconut oil, it is definitely beneficial health-wise to consume it, whether by itself or in things. I have taken it by itself, but couldn't get past the oil in my mouth. Might try again, though.
