Swanson EFAs Coconut Oil softgels are a great way to introduce energy-enhancing medium-chain triglycerides into a diet. Medium-chain triglycerides are different because they are rapidly absorbed by the small intestine and are quickly used for energy. Coconut oil is also a beneficial source of fatty acids, especially lauric acid. The body is able to metabolize these quickly for energy. Our virgin coconut oil supplement is made from certified organic coconut oil and has 400-560 mg of lauric acid per serving.
