LipoVital MCM C8-C10 is a combination of monoglycerides of caprylic and capric acid, which have specific antibacterial properties against pathogenic gram(-) bacteria such as E. coli or Salmonella spp. The monoglyceride form is more efficacious than its corresponding fatty acid form. Short-chain fatty acid and medium-chain fatty acid monoglycerides are powerful inhibitors of gram(+) and gram(-) bacteria, positively influencing the gut microbiota.
