Food supplement in the form of a soft capsule containing C8 - caprylic acid obtained from coconut (Cocos nucifera). Caprylic acid is a medium chain fatty acid. Free from palm oil. Caprylic acid, otherwise known as octanoic acid, belongs to the medium-chain fatty acids (MCT). The body does not need bile and lipase to digest caprylic acid, so acid is an easy source of energy for the body. Caprylic acid is found mainly in coconut oil, palm oil, as well as in milk and other dairy products. A ketogenic and fatty diet is a diet in which energy comes from fats provided with food, and carbohydrates make up a small percentage of the energy. For these diets to benefit, the body must learn to draw energy from fats. The presence of ketone bodies in the blood or urine while on such a diet is an indicator of whether we are following the diet correctly. Supplementation with caprylic acid will be helpful in obtaining the appropriate level of ketone bodies. Caprylic acid can help the body draw energy from fats. This effect is most noticeable when acid is taken after an overnight fast and before meals. Caprylic acid may also have antibacterial and antifungal potential. These properties are observed in supporting the treatment of Candida albicans yeast infections or Dermatophilus congolensis bacteria. A healthy microflora throughout the body is essential for keeping your digestive system healthy and acne-free skin. By influencing the satiety center caprylic acid promotes appetite regulation, which is important for maintaining a healthy figure.
