Hanan,

Mary was talking about Human milk, which has a high water content.
Hydrolysis of fats and oils is a reaction with water, which causes free
fatty acids to come into solution. Freezing can actually cause this
reaction, by forcing the dehydration of the lipid and thereby speeding
up the reaction. However most oils have little water content and
freezing can actually protect them from hydrolysis.

To obtain monolaurin from coconut oil...eat the oil.
