Virgin Coconut Oil The lauric acid content contains characteristics of a mother’s milk which is the very foundation of human nourishment. VCO extracted through our bacteria fermentation process yield three times higher lauric acid than mother’s milk. VCO contains no trans fatty acids (TFA) that are linked to cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer, among others.
