VCO

3. Discovery of Lauric acids
1966- Professor Jon. J. Kabara, Ph.D. from Michigan State University discovered the miracle of lauric acids found in coconut oil.
This medium chain fatty acids:- are similar to the fats in a mother’s milk have nutraceutical effects
naturally protects and nourishes the human body.
Since then, numerous researches all over the world have consistently confirmed that VCO is one of the healthiest types of oil

4. 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.

5. Benefits of Lauric Acids
VCO is rich in lauric acid. Lauric acid within our body is converted into monolaurine that has anti-viral, antibacterial and antiprotozoan properties.
In other words, VCO helps to enhance our immune system
