Lauric acid is reportedly great for the immune system. It is a fatty acid that they do use in soaps and various cosmetic products. It is uniquely antiviral and along with capric acid, also found in coconuts, has been studied for it's action against everything from Influenza to even HIV. It is also antifungal and touted to help combat candida fungal yeast infection in large amounts.
