Does anyone know where I can buy Extra Virgin Coconut Oil in Cairo?
EVCO is not manufactured in Egypt so I obviously mean imported EVCO.
Imtenan Health Shop has tiny CO bottles which are for internal use and don't seem to be cold pressed or EV.
If I fail to find it in Cairo, is there anyone coming from Europe or USA to Cairo soon who would be willing to buy some for me (with a personal profit margin of course)?

I use coconut oil for my hair regularly. I either buy the Nefertari oil (available in most organic stores and) or the Asala oil which is available in all bigger pharmacies.

Thanks Chef Mick. I appreciate you wanting to help :-)
If you happen to hear of a place that sells it here, do let me know please.

Thanks Dalia, but I was thinking EV Coconut oil for internal use not for cosmetic purposes.

The reason I'm re-posting the main post is that I tried to edit it but got a message that it was too late to do so.
Anyway, the edited sentence is: Imtenan Health Shop has tiny CO bottles which are NOT for internal use and don't seem to be cold pressed or EV.

Oh, ok.
I've never seen the one for internal use here. There's a small chance you might get it in the exotic food section of one of the hypermarkets.
May I ask what you are planning to use it for?

I use extra virgin coconut oil cold compressed for hair, body, cooking and I eat three tablespoons everyday. I never heard of coconut oil just for internal use

Thanks Dalia for the suggestion, but I've already checked all the possible sections in almost every hypermarket/supermarket in Cairo.
I take two teaspoons a day (for its health benefits) and use it for cooking (also for its benefits).

Hi unsure, nowhere in my post did I mention it was for internal use ONLY. What I said is that the coconut oil made in Egypt isn't fit for oral consumption (IMHO) due to it not being cold-pressed and EV.
