Monolaurin is a chemical derived from lauric acid, which is a component of both coconut fat and breast milk.  It’s been used in cosmetics and as a food additive, but recently it’s making waves as a homeopathic remedy for preventing and treating colds, flu, herpes, shingles and urinary tract infections.

If you’ve been listening to our podcast you first heard about monolaurin when we interviewed Teju Owoye, who told us that she uses monolaurin to treat infections. We were certainly intrigued and decided to dig a little deeper into this supplement. In this episode we talk to Damon Sununtnasuk, the founder of Natural Cure Labs, about what monoluarin is, how it came to be discovered, and why you may want to consider adding this supplement to your overall wellness plan. As this is not yet regulated by the FDA, Damon provided some helpful links for you to do your own research.
