Monolaurin is a derivative of coconut that has been shown to have anti-fungal and anti-viral properties. Nontoxic and non-irritating to the intestinal tract, it works directly on the envelope of the virus. By disrupting the lipid bilayer of the virus, Monolaurin inactivates the virus by preventing attachment (absorption) to susceptible host cell walls. This prevents the uncoating of viruses needed for replication and infection.
Monolaurin 600 is an economical, convenient way to get twice the dosage of Monolaurin in the same size capsule. It costs 40% less per gram of Monolaurin. (Monolaurin 300 is the original product.)
In studies performed at the Respiratory Virology Branch, Centers for Disease Control, Monolaurin was shown to remove all measurable infectivity against the following 14 RNA and DNA viruses including:
Herpes Simplex 1 and 2
Epstein-Barr
Bronchitis
Influenza
RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus)
Rubeola
Newcastle's
Cytomegalovirus
Monolaurin also has shown to be effective against fungal (candida) infections, staph, strep, chlamydia, and giardia.
Dr. Rosemary Waring's work on fatty acids effects on the gut has shown that lauric acid increases levels of tyrosyl protein sulfotransferase, an enzyme important for the regulation of intenstinal function and known to be low in children within the autism spectrum.
