"Products That Really Work, Naturally"
**Fatty Acid Percents will vary slightly batch by batch depending on natural variations in the coconut oil content of each batch.

Cholesterol Control: Not all fatty acids are alike. Lauric acid, for example, is a “good” saturated fatty acid.* An analysis of 60 cholesterol research studies shows that the lauric acid in coconut oil helps maintain cholesterol levels that are already within the normal range, as measured by the ratio of total cholesterol to “good” (HDL) cholesterol.
Immune System: The lauric acid and monoglycerides in mother’s milk help the immune system of the new-born baby. The same lauric acid and monoglycerides in coconut oil help support the adult immune system.*
Intestinal Health: By helping maintain the healthy intestinal flora, coconut oil contributes to the healthy functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.*
