Caprylic acid (octanoic acid) is an eight-carbon saturated fatty acid. Binding it to calcium and magnesium produces a dry powder that is easy to encapsulate and releases the fatty acid progressively. Calcium and magnesium contribute to normal muscle function, and magnesium contributes to electrolyte balance and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Directions
One to three capsules with each meal as a food supplement, or as otherwise directed by a healthcare professional.

Biotics Research Corporation was founded in 1975 and is based in Rosenberg, Texas, where it formulates and manufactures its own products in a cGMP-compliant facility with in-house laboratories for raw material and finished product testing. The company has a long practitioner-only heritage and is known for its vegetable-culture technology, emulsified fat-soluble vitamins and active nutrient forms. In the UK, its range is supplied through the practitioner distributor Nutri-Link. This research-led, quality-first approach aligns with Welzo's commitment to clear, quality-led nutrition, and Welzo's healthcare professionals assessed the brand for alignment with our standards. Caprin stands out in the caprylic acid category for the simplicity and stability of its delivery form. Many caprylic acid products use liquid or oil-based triglycerides in softgels, which can be bulky and prone to oxidation; Biotics Research instead binds the fatty acid to calcium and magnesium, producing dry caprylate salts that release gradually and keep the ingredient list to just three components plus the capsule shell. The result is a clean, practitioner-friendly product that is gluten, dairy and GMO free and allows flexible dosing from one to three capsules per meal. It has been part of the Biotics range for decades and is distributed in the UK through Nutri-Link. This disciplined approach to a single-ingredient formula reinforces our trust in their quality philosophy.
