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.

FAQ
- Why Take a Coconut Oil Supplement?
Coconut oil supplements provide a convenient way to incorporate the beneficial fatty acids found in coconut oil into your daily routine. They are particularly popular among individuals seeking support for energy production, metabolism, and ketogenic lifestyles. - What Are Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) and Why Are They Important?
MCTs are a type of fat naturally found in coconut oil. Unlike longer-chain fats, MCTs are rapidly absorbed and utilized by the body for energy, making them a popular ingredient in wellness and active-lifestyle supplements. - What Is the Difference Between Coconut Oil and MCT Oil?
Coconut oil contains a variety of fatty acids, including naturally occurring MCTs, while MCT oil is a concentrated source of specific medium-chain triglycerides. Coconut oil provides a broader fatty acid profile, whereas MCT oil is designed to deliver higher levels of MCTs. - Why Is Coconut Oil Popular on Keto Diets?
Coconut oil is popular on ketogenic diets because it contains naturally occurring MCTs, which are readily used for energy. This makes coconut oil a convenient source of dietary fat for individuals following low-carbohydrate or ketogenic eating plans. - What Makes Swanson Certified Organic Coconut Oil Different From Other Coconut Oil Supplements?
Swanson Certified Organic Coconut Oil features organically sourced coconut oil in a convenient softgel form, making it easy to enjoy the benefits of coconut oil without measuring liquid oils. Each softgel delivers 1,000 mg of certified organic coconut oil, providing naturally occurring medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and other beneficial fatty acids in a convenient daily supplement. - Is Swanson Certified Organic Coconut Oil Suitable for Special Diets?
Swanson Certified Organic Coconut Oil is USDA Organic, non-GMO, gluten free, and dairy free. However, it is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets because the softgels contain gelatin.
