Capsules vs. the Oil-form







There’s a lot of VCO beauty or health products in the market that offer VCO in pills or specifically soft gel. Now, the largest softgel one can make is 1000 mg (1 gram). Researchers recommend about 3.5 tablespoons of coconut oil to eat everyday. 1 tablespoon is 14 grams, so the amount required per day is 49 grams. Imagine how much capsules you have to take that is equivalent to the dosage? It is about 49 capsules per day! And Usually the company producing this pills recommend only about 3 to 6 capsules, which is only a few drops of coconut oil. Plus, one bottle is about RM150-200/month for only a tiny bit of oil in comparison to taking the real oil, a 400 ml bottle for 3-4 months of sufficient daily dosage. What value are those expensive pills? 

Not only that, think about what else are you consuming besides the oil inside them? The capsules are made from gelatin capsules made from who-knows-what.  We don't see anyone advertising organic grass-fed derived gelatin capsules. (If they are "vegetarian" capsules, then they are likely corn or soy-based with GMOs.) So any toxins currently existing like the growth hormones, antibiotics, etc.) will also be in these gelatin capsules. 

Please be alarmed by the company that are taking advantage of their clients and give them a product that has little or no value, and could potentially be even harmful to them.
