Caprylic Acid, 1200mg - 120 softgels

Food supplement in the form of a softgel containing C8 - caprylic acid, derived from coconut (Cocos nucifera). Caprylic acid is a medium-chain fatty acid. In addition to palm oil. If you are following a ketogenic or high-fat diet and your main source of energy in your diet is fat, it is worth supplementing your diet with caprylic acid. Caprylic acid can help produce ketone bodies, which are the main energy molecule in a diet rich in fat. Caprylic acid, also known as octanoic acid, belongs to the medium-chain fatty acids (MCT). The body does not need bile and lipase to digest caprylic acid, making the acid an easy source of energy for the body. Caprylic acid is mainly found in coconut oil, palm oil, as well as milk and other dairy products. A ketogenic and low-fat diet is a diet in which energy is derived from dietary fat, with a small portion of energy coming from carbohydrates. For these diets to be beneficial, the body must learn to get energy from fat. The presence of ketone bodies in the blood or urine while on this diet is an indicator of whether we are following the diet correctly. Supplementing with caprylic acid will help to achieve adequate levels of ketone bodies. Caprylic acid can help the body get energy from fat. This effect is most noticeable when the acid is taken after an overnight fast and before meals. Caprylic acid may also have antibacterial and antifungal potential. These properties are seen in the treatment of Candida albicans yeast infections or Dermatophilus congolensis bacteria. Healthy microflora throughout the body is essential for a healthy digestive system and acne-free skin. By acting on the satiety center, caprylic acid promotes appetite regulation, which is important for maintaining a healthy figure.
