Details
Monolaurin (glycerol monolaurate) is a potent viricidal and bactericidal agent with efficacy across an impressive array of pathogenic organisms and viruses. Unlike conventional antibiotics, it has not been shown to result in antibacterial resistance, nor to have adverse effects on the beneficial intestinal flora. As such, in addition to acute use it may also be used as a potential preventive measure during cold and flu season, or taken on an ongoing basis by those susceptible to recurrent infection and illness.*
Mechanism and Targets of Action
Monolaurin is believed to inactivate lipid-coated viruses by binding to the lipid-protein viral envelope, thereby preventing it from attaching to and entering host cells.* Additionally, as a lipid-based surfactant, monolaurin has been shown to be effective against microbial biofilms.* Biofilm-associated bacteria are typically less susceptible to antibiotic therapy than are free-living bacteria, possibly owing to the inability of some antibiotics to fully penetrate the biofilm and interact directly with bacteria.
Recommended Use
As a dietary supplement, take two capsules per day with meals, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
