Monolaurin: The Origin and Lauricidin®

Monolaurin in the sn-1 position was originally discovered in human milk, where as a naturally occurring medium-chain fatty acid it provides specific nutritional benefits to infants. Lauricidin® is identical to this form of monolaurin, but it is not extracted from breast milk. Instead, it is produced from coconut oil, also in the sn-1 position, and moreover it is >95% pure.

The Difference Between Coconut Oil, Lauric Acid and Lauricidin®

Coconut oil is extracted from the flesh of mature coconuts (Cocos nucifera) and contains approximately 40%-60% lauric acid, a 12-carbon medium-chain saturated fatty acid (C12:0 triglyceride). Lauricidin® is made by combining lauric acid from coconut oil with a vegetable glycerol, resulting in a pure ester known as monolaurin (monoglyceride). Monolaurin is also found in other plant sources, such as Saw Palmetto and Bitter Melon. However, the lauric acid in coconut oil is inactive in our bodies because we don't have the enzyme needed to break down coconut oil into the monoester of lauric acid. Lauricidin® is present in this unique ester form. It is natural, non-toxic and suitable for daily use. In its natural state, Lauricidin® is widely applicable.

About Med-Chem Labs

Med-Chem Labs was founded in 1966 by Professor Dr. Jon Kabara, the monolaurin pioneer. Dr. Kabara discovered the beneficial effects of monolaurin in breast milk in the 1960s, which led to the establishment of Med-Chem Labs and the introduction of the brand and product Lauricidin®, based on monolaurin. Lauricidin® is a pure monolaurin extract made from a combination of lauric acid and glycerol, derived from pure coconut oil.

Tips for Beginners

  • Do not chew the pellets or ingest them in powder form.
  • Take Lauricidin® with or after a meal. The mini-pellets can be placed in the mouth and swallowed with water or juice. Do not take them with hot liquids.
