  • Its 8,400 mg of lauric acid is higher than 96% of the 70 lauric acid products that print an amount; 2 list more.

The NIH database records one serving a day from the label's directions; its % Daily Values are for adults and children 4 or more years of age. The directions as printed are further down this page.
