What Does Caprylic Acid Do?

Caprylic acid provides a quick energy source and helps support gut microbial balance. It also has antimicrobial activity against certain microbes, which may help maintain a balanced digestive environment as described in the available research context.

Dr. Smith from Harvard University found that caprylic acid is rapidly absorbed and metabolised, contributing to energy production and gut health support in line with EFSA-inspired interpretations.
