Caprylic acid is one of the major medium chain triglycerides (MCT), chemically known as octanoic acid. It is a saturated fatty acid containing eight carbon atoms. Caprylic acid occurs naturally in the milk of different mammals. It is also found as one of the components of coconut and palm kernel oils. Caprylic acid has potential antimicrobial activity to inhibit the growth of a broad range of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, and algae. It acts as an active fungicide by preventing the infection of Candidafungi, commonly known as Candidacells. Caprylic acid also functions to activate ghrelin, a protein that stimulates hunger and increases appetite. It oxidizes the fat component in the body, enabling burning of excess calories, and aiding in weight loss.
