Composition and therapeutic and prophylactic effect

A wide range of health-improving effects of coconut oil, as well as its various cosmetic uses, are primarily determined by the high concentration of saturated fatty acids in this plant product (lauric (50%), myristic (20%), palmitic (9%), capric (5%), caprylic (5%), stearic (3%), etc.), as well as the presence of coconut oil in the composition of the mono-unsaturated fatty oleic acid (which accounts for 6% in the fatty acid composition of coconut oil). The content of polyunsaturated fatty acids (linoleic omega-6 acid and linolenic omega-3 acid) in coconut oil is insignificant and is about 0.5%.

The composition of coconut oil also includes betaines, fatty ester ethoxylates, ethanolamides, polysorbates, monoglycerides, polyols of esters, vitamins (A, E, B1, B2, B3, K and C), iron, calcium, phosphorus and other macro and microelements .

Lauric acid, whose content in coconut oil exceeds 50%, in the human body is converted to monolaurin - a substance that is very effective in combating various pathogenic viruses, fungi and bacteria. In addition, lauric acid helps accelerate the healing of skin lesions and activates skin regeneration.

Such a component of coconut oil as a myristic fatty acid promotes better penetration of cosmetic ingredients into the skin, and plays an important role in stabilizing proteins used by the immune system.

The oleic acid included in the composition of coconut oil promotes skin moisture preservation and restoration of barrier functions of the epidermis, prevents the accumulation of fat in the body and atkizes the "burning" of fat accumulation, and also this useful substance reduces the blood content of "bad" cholesterol (associated with low density lipoproteins) and prevents the oxidation of cholesterol, thereby inhibiting the development of atherosclerosis.

Caprylic acid contained in coconut oil has a pronounced fungicidal property, helps restore the acid-base balance of the skin and improves skin oxygen saturation. The antifungal action of lauric and caprylic fatty acids strengthens caprinic kilo, which possesses an antibacterial property and promotes strengthening of immunity.
