What is the Lauric Acid percentage &amp; the medium chain fatty acids percentage of this coconut oil please??
182903
According to the product description, it's about 50% lauric acid, which is a medium chain fatty acid. This is a fully organic product, very healthy and relative to comparable market offerings a worthy value.

It says on the label that it's concentrated by molecular distillation (which 2yrs ago everybody was saying was the best!) so there probably are some EEs. The top 2 Google (TM) hits are diametrically opposed on whether it actually matters: http://www.ascentahealth.com/health-science/science-articles/fish-oil-triglycerides-vs-ethyl-esters-as-nature-intended http://www.sciencebasedhealth.com/Fish-Oil-EE-vs-TG-omega-3s-which-is-better-W119.aspx The Ascenta website has a test you can do: you put 20ml of your fish oil in a styrofoam cup. EEs will leak through it in 10min, triglycerides won't. Tempted to do it, because now you've got me curious, but I wonder how many of these capsules I'll have to squeeze open to get 20ml? I picked these because I wanted buckets of DHA for my brain. I'd like to see some quantitative data: for instance, one of these supposedly has 500mg DHA, whereas maybe a triglyceride one only has 80. So if this DHA is only, say, half as bioavailable as the triglyceride, I'm getting 250mg from this one which is STILL better than 80. Also, even the EEs-are-bad articles seem to say it only actively harms people who have certain conditions or are taking certain other meds - though I admit I skimmed, because the whole "last year's Underdog's Super Energy Pill is this year's poison" thing gives me a fatal Out-of-Patience Error.

The Nutrition label says 50% HCA and the bottle says standardized to 65%. the reason is because potassium is a key component of HCA, HCA isn't as potent or effective without potassium. Basically like the potassium compounds or boosts the effects of HCA and we have 15% potassium in our Garcinia Cambogia Extract, that's how it's standardized to 65%.I hope i've been able to shed light on this subject, please let me know if you have any further questions or need help with anything, I'll be more than happy to assist.Very Sincerely,George Okafor

Well... the only thing I can do is tell you what it states on the jar. That is: 'pure silicone grease'. Nothing more, nothing less. It does not state any percentages or other ingredients. I hope this helps...Steve

I'm looking at the back of the bottle. According to the label, the guaranteed analysis breaks down as: Crude fat (min) 67%, moisture (max)3%, Total Omega 3 fatty acids (min)21%, EPA (min) 10%, DHA (min) 6%. Ingredients are: anchovy oil, sardine oil, gelatin, water, glycerin, d-alpha tocopherol (a preservative). Nordic Naturals is based out of Canada. I don't know if they only distribute it from there or if their processing plant is also there. I do recommend it, though. My dog has been on it for about 2 years now and it's made such a difference in his coat and claws, that I started taking their human version. I'm looking at the back of the bottle.

Coconut oil in general consists of about 65% MCTs, but only about 15% is that which is found in products marked as MCT oil. Hope that helps! As Lois stated, this coconut oil does have the flavor of coconut. It is good for baking and cooking certain foods. However, if you don't want the full coconut flavor, try a refined, organic oil....most of the same benefits but no taste or smell.

Yes, i think its pure. In comparison To the other fractionated Coconut oil, its exactly the same. Works very well.

They must have added those percentages since this question was posted cuz it is stated in the title: Vitamin C Serum 22% C + 11% Hyaluronic Acid + 1% Vitamin E + 1% Ferulic, also Contains Organic Aloe & Jojoba Oil + Advanced Amino Complex

Hello, the container is now mislabeled and is only 16 oz. It says so in the listing. He gave a discount because of it. Still Amazing coconut oil though

It's 100% pure Emu oil. It's got .00022% Vita E so it won't go rancid.. IF you're good in MATH, that's about as pure as you can get. :&gt;)

Just an FYI about he "Fatty Alcohol Ethoxylate"... The fatty part comes from coconut oil which is natural, yes... BUT the ethoxylate part comes from ethylene oxide which is a raw material used in the chemical industry for making a variety of surfactants and emulsifiers, etc. The ethylene oxide comes from ethylene itself which is sourced from petroleum. Don't be fooled by ingredient names or label claims about naturally-derived. This coming from an actual chemist.

I don't know. This is a coconut oil that is made into a thin consistency. It is used for mixing with my essential oils to dilute them. It works great because the thin consistency matches that of the oils so it comes out of the bottles easily and mixes well. Non greasy too. And oderless. Nice for moisturizer too.

This is definitely refined. A easy giveaway is the packaging - coconut oil is solid and only liquifies at 76 degrees or greater which is why it's sold in jars not bottles. I prefer to buy the huge jar of raw, unrefined coconut oil that way it has multiple uses and there's no degradation in the effectiveness.

Hi Pen, I am a user and you right. Currently the front image is not having the label statement "Chemical-Free . pH Balanced"; the same in the label below. Also there is other change in the lowest label instead of saying "with Coconut Oil" now says "with KuKui Oil". That indicates that they changed the original formulation. I have still a bottle saying the original descriptions. Chemical-Free is the main reason for me to buy this product. While they keep guaranteed that this product is pH-balanced and continue having No SLS and Organic Ingredients also no animal or human cruelty tests I will continue buying it otherwise they will lose a great customer. Regards...

well the vegetable glycerine is 67%, I am assuming from fats and oils as well as long chain carboxylic acids, it is used as a preservative.
