Hey there lymster..

I tried to get caprylic acid a couple months ago for someone.. and darn if it wasn't REALLY hard to find. I tried many places before I found it.

Here is the place where I got it.... always good service and excellent prices. I don't know what brand I got... because it was shipped to someone else for them... but they had caprylic acid.

Actually here is their caprylic acid selection, if you are interested. I just noted they aren't doing online orders anymore.. but I always call to make the orders for people anyhow.

Dear Tincup:

Our local, relatively well-stocked, health food store sells caprylic acid. Might want to check around locally.

Not the same brand, but it seems to work just as well.

You could also try adding coconut oil to your diet. Caprylic acid is made from coconut oil.

LLMD just recommended this during a phone consult last night!

I muddled around with the spelling before being able to locate it:

CAPRYLEX, made by Douglas Labs

I ordered from myvitanet.com, but there are several on-line sources.

Hope this helps,
Viva
