Now Foods - COCONUT OIL 1000MG. 120 SGELS

Coconut oil (Cocos nucifera) is an unrefined, cold-pressed oil that is produced without the use of solvents. Coconut oil is free of trans fats and is rich in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), such as lauric acid (C-12) and caprylic acid (C-8). MCTs are less likely to be stored as body fat than most other fatty acids. When combined with fatty acids, it is a great addition to an overall fat health program. Functional action: Contains saturated fats: Mostly these saturated fats are medium chain fatty acids or triglycerides. When applied to the skin, they give it a smoothness. Due to the presence of these fats, coconut oil also retains the moisture content of the skin, because the fats will eliminate moisture loss through the pores of the skin. When ingested through regular consumption of coconut oil, these fats are constantly present under the skin, while keeping it healthy and smooth, giving it an even tone and reducing the appearance of pores. Capric / Caprylic / Lauric acids: They are not very different from the usual fatty acids, but it is still important to mention them separately here because they have their own benefits. These three fatty acids have strong disinfectant and antimicrobial properties. As a result, when applied to the skin, coconut oil protects against microbial infections that can enter open wounds or even through pores. It can be taken internally, thus boosting immunity as the body converts monocaprines to monolaurin. In addition, capric, caprylic and lauric acids easily break down fatty acid chains, which means they aid in weight control and weight loss. Losing weight is a great way to improve the quality of your skin by reducing excess fat, stretch marks and skin folds that can be unsightly. Directions: Take 3 softgels 2-3 times daily with meals.
