Description
- NOW Virgin Coconut Oil 1000 mg is an unrefined, cold-pressed oil, and does not utilize any solvents in the manufacturing process.
- Coconut oil is abundant in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), such as lauric acid (C12) and caprylic acid (C8).
- MCTs are less likely to be stored in the body as fat than most other fatty acids.* When combined with essential fatty acids, it is a perfect addition to an overall balanced lipid program.*
- Coconut oil is a traditional dietary staple of the people of Asia, Africa, and the Pacific Islands and has been used in Ayurvedic herbalism for thousands of years.
