Do You Trust Your Olive Oil?

Estate-bottled Cold Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Chile

What is Unique about an Estate-bottled olive oil?

I have recently incorporated fresh sea moss (also sometimes referred to as "seaweed" or "macroalgae") gels into my diet which has had a very positive impact on health.

One study published last year (2025) identified the polysaccharides in sea moss as modulating gut microbiota.

Another study published last year found that bioactive compounds derived from brown, red and green seaweeds showed promising results in cognitive decline prevention in Alzheimer's patients.

A previously published study by Korean researchers found that the bioactive compounds in marine algae had many benefits for healthy skin.

Another study published a few years ago showed promising results of certain components of marine algae in type 2 diabetes.

In 2022 Chinese researchers looked at seaweed-derived bioactive compounds in treating colorectal cancer.

This is just a sampling of the research published on the health benefits of sea moss, and as you can see, the research is mostly on certain components within sea moss that can be extracted and made into medicines, because sea moss itself is a natural product that cannot be patented.

You are better off with the REAL THING, if it is fresh and not mass produced like the processed forms with their added preservatives and chemicals that go along with most food that is mass-produced for the mass market.

The consumption of sea moss can be dated back to the fourth-century in Japan and the sixth-century in China.

Before I explain the source where I found my fresh sea moss gel at, and that my online store, Healthy Traditions, is now also selling, let's review the history of "gelatin".

Tropical Traditions: Supplying Coconut Oil to America for 25 Years!

Tropical Traditions began exporting Virgin Coconut Oil from the Philippines to the US in 2001.

At that time, there were only one or two other companies in the US even selling coconut oil, and they were highly refined coconut oils, mostly used for cosmetics and skincare products.

The prevailing belief was that coconut oil was dangerous to consume as an edible oil, due to its high saturated fat content.

But having lived in the Philippines for several years, I was forced to challenge my own thinking that coconut oil was bad, seeing firsthand how the older generations in rural areas consumed home-made coconut oil from fresh coconuts, and thriving from a high-fat diet where coconut oil was their main dietary oil.

We started making our own coconut oil by hand, the traditional way, and consuming it as a family. We decided to make this product available to the US market. Distinguishing this hand-made traditional coconut oil from the refined coconut oils mass produced by machine, we called it "Virgin Coconut Oil."

We were the first ones to export Virgin Coconut Oil from the Philippines to the US market. The success overwhelmed us.

Today, more than 25 years later, there are many other companies now selling coconut oil again in the US, most of them mass-produced by machines.

But we are committed to time-honored traditional practices that have produced natural coconut oils for hundreds, if not thousands of years.

Our Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is still made by hand by small-scale family producers in the Philippines.

Today, it is much more difficult to market on the Internet, as the large Big Box retailers along with Amazon.com dominate search engines and other ways of attracting new customers.
