June 25, 2026
Coconut oil is a powerful antifungal, more than the leading drug fluconazole (antifungal medication used to treat and prevent a wide variety of fungal and yeast infections, such as vaginal thrush, oral thrush, and severe internal organ infections), in vitro.
In cultured cells, coconut oil outperformed the standard antifungal prescription medication.
Clinical trials have shown that MCT oil can substantially reduce Candida colonization.
Thanks to the membrane disrupting properties of MCTs.
