Healthy and Beautiful with Anvi Earth Organic Coconut Oil
Organic Coconut Oil is loaded with beneficial fats and does not contain cholesterol. These fats are primarily medium chain triglycerides (MCT). MCTs’ have numerous health benefits. The fatty acids that are responsible for its health benefits are:
- Lauric acid
- Capric acid
- Caprylic acid
Lauric acid has a particular structure that allows the body to absorb it easily. Once absorbed, it morphs into monolaurin, found in human breast milk, coconut milk and virgin coconut oil. Monolaurin is known for its antiviral, antimicrobial and antibacterial properties.
Virgin coconut oil also contains linoleic acid, oleic acid, phenolic acid, myristic acid and vitamin E.
