Swanson Caprylic Acid 600mg | Energy and Metabolism | Promotes Gut Health | 60 Softgels Exp 10/2026

Caprylic acid was first popularized as a dietary supplement by Dr. William Crook, author of the famous book on internal ecology, The Yeast Connection. Today it's widely used as a companion to other effective supplements, such as acidophilus and FOS, for healthy microbial balance. It's also gaining popularity among athletes, who appreciate it for its quick energy.

• Unique medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) fatty acid that supports microbial balance in the gut and promotes increased energy levels
• MCTs are digested in the liver and deliver quick energy—twice that of glucose

Swanson Caprylic Acid delivers 600 mg C8 caprylic acid in one easy-to-swallow softgel to support energy and metabolism. Caprylic acid is a medium-chain triglyceride (MCT), a type of lipid that is not digested in the gut, but rather in the liver, like carbohydrates. As such, it delivers quick energy—more than twice that delivered by glucose.

Directions:

As a dietary supplement, take 1 softgel 2 times per day with water before meals.
