There has been a running joke since the start of the pandemic about NOT wishing that people are positive (because being positive came to be connected with being COVID-positive). But seriously, recent events have given us every reason to be positive about being happy and healthy and it has to do with virgin coconut oil (VCO).
In early 2021, I wrote about clinical trials starting for VCO that would test if its properties would be adequate support for those suffering from COVID-19. By early 2022, the verdict was out. The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) announced that virgin coconut oil can be considered an adjunct therapy for mild to moderate COVID-19. DOST will work with the country’s foremost industry association of coconut processors to get VCO approved for indications for mild COVID-19 cases by the Food and Drug Administration.
Most VCO products are in liquid form but one stands out because it comes in a capsule — very easy to bring around during your travels and convenient to just pop into your mouth any time — Growrich VCO Capsules.
Growrich VCO capsules are made from pure virgin coconut oil extracted from fresh coconut meat, a patented process that ensures the oil is free of added chemicals without subjecting it to heat. Virgin coconut contains lauric acid and monolaurin, medium-chain fatty acids which have demonstrably significant antimicrobial activity against gram-positive bacteria and a number of fungi and viruses.
According to Dr. Ed Lalusis, President and CEO of Growrich Manufacturing, Inc., “Growrich Virgin Coconut Oil Capsules, our breakthrough product, will make it easier for people to take virgin coconut oil and enjoy its health benefits. Among other things, the high amount of lauric acid in extra virgin coconut oil helps the heart by reducing total cholesterol and increasing good cholesterol”.
The recommended dosage for Growrich VCO Capsules is 1-2 a day, to be taken with meals. I have been taking VCO daily since 2013 and with Growrich Virgin Coconut Oil Capsules, that daily regimen has become a lot easier and convenient.
Growrich VCO capsules are available at Mercury Drug, Watsons and Southstar Drugstore for Php11.50 per capsule. They come in a blister pack of 10. You may also get them from Shopee (just search “Growrich Virgin Coconut Oil”).
