Review:
I love coconut oil in all it's forms but to ingest it I have to have some kind of pill or gelcap. I have a texture issue with foods and swallowing down a spoonful of oil just makes me shudder. These are the perfect alternative to having to do this and still getting the benefits from the oil. This company gets major points for being certified organic and made in the US. The only drawback I can see is the size of the capsule. They are about the size of a multivitamin but they go down pretty easily since they are in a soft gel form.

Company info:
Coconut oil has been given a bad reputation in the past because it contains 90% saturated fat. Most of the fatty acids in human diet are long-chain, but the medium-chain fatty acids in coconut oil are metabolized differently and much more efficiently, becoming available immediately as energy as well as offering additional health benefits including a boosted immune system, improved digestion, enhanced brain function, and stronger hair, skin, and nails.
Our bodies rapidly metabolizes Medium Chain Triglycerides in the liver immediately, opposed to having to go through the lymphatic system, converting this into energy as fuel for muscle function or turned into ketone bodies as fuel for the brain. Because MCT's are burned so quickly and efficiently, it is very difficult for your body to store it as fat.
The medium chain triglycerides or medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) allow the body to quickly convert coconut oil into energy. Coconut oil is used as a healthy way to boost energy levels when a pick-me-up is needed. Many athletes also use coconut oil to improve performance and endurance. oil is digested by enzymes, it also forms a monoglyceride called Monolaurin. Lauric Acid and Monolaurin have both been found to kill harmful pathogens like bacteria, viruses and fungi in the body resulting in a stronger immune system.
