This form is derived from medium-chain triglyceride oil sourced from coconut and palm kernel oil, often used in supplements for its fatty acid makeup.

What Does Caprylic Acid Do?

Caprylic acid supports antimicrobial and antifungal action in the gastrointestinal tract and helps maintain a healthy balance of gut flora.
