Caprylic/ Capric triglycerides are sometimes erroneously referred to as fractionated coconut oil, which is similar in composition but typically refers to coconut oil that has had its longer chain triglycerides removed.

Fractionated Coconut Oil is ideal for increasing the topical distribution of essential oil. One of its primary benefits is that it is non-greasy and is easily absorbed into the skin. Thus, it helps to soften and soothe the dry skin very effectively.

Fractionated coconut oil is made by separating the different types of fats in regular coconut oil. What remains are two medium-chain fatty acids that may lead to modest weight loss and several other health benefits. While fractionated coconut oil may offer some benefits, it's more processed than the regular coconut oil.
