NEW ROOTS HERBAL ORGANIC COCONUT OIL 1000MG SOFTGELS

New Roots Herbal Organic Coconut Oil 1000mg Softgels

New Roots Herbal extra virgin coconut oil is cold-pressed from fresh coconuts. They are pressed within 48 hours of being picked from the trees. The fresh meat is placed under pressure and is expeller-pressed instead of by using chemical solvents to yield pure, uncontaminated coconut oil. This gentle and natural pressing yields pure oil with low moisture and 50–57% lauric acid content.

Research shows that some saturated fat is in fact necessary for human health and the latest research shows that the medium chain fatty acids help to increase metabolism and are more easily digested than fats found in other oils.* This is because they are processed directly in the liver and immediately converted into energy. Therefore, there is less strain on the liver, pancreas and digestive system and these MCFA provide the body with a wonderful, quick source of energy.* It also helps prevent premature aging and wrinkling of your skin.*

The fatty acids may also help prevent infections caused by viruses, protozoa, fungi and bacteria.* Lauric acid also has adverse effects on enveloped viruses.* It destroys the lipid membrane of such enveloped viruses as measles, influenza and cytomegalovirus. Apart from coconut oil, the only other source of lauric acid found in such high concentrations is in a mother’s milk.

Coconut oil is unusually rich in short and medium chain fatty acids.* Shorter chain length allows fatty acids to be metabolized without use of the carnitine transport system.* Mildronate is said to protect cells against stress partly by opposing the action of carnitine, comparative studies show that added carnitine has the opposite effect, possibly promoting the oxidation of unsaturated fats during stress, and may increase oxidative damage to cells.*
