Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO), an ordinary product with extraordinary capabilities. VCO is rich in saturated fats and more easily digested than fats found in other oil. It has Lauric acid that has anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties, and is the most important essential fatty acid for building and maintaining the body’s immune system. VCO is also known to help increase the body’s metabolism, and is quick source of energy.

Imagine if these benefits can be found in the multivitamins that we drink every day?

Enersel Forte is the first and only  multivitamins with VCO that enhances the body’s immune system by giving it antibacterial and antiviral properties through the release of lauric acid. The human body converts lauric acid into monolaurin which helps in dealing with harmful viruses and bacteria.

Enersel Forte is SEL-J Pharmaceuticals Corporation’s multivitamins for children and young adults with a unique formulation of Vitamins A, B, C, D and E and minerals Niacinamide and Zinc. It also contains Chlorella Growth Factor responsible for height development among children, and the elements Taurin and Lysine.

With Enersel Forte, the New, revolutionary Formula for Giftedness, children and adults can excel in sports, academic, arts and music, and other fields.

“Since we started covering pediatricians, general practitioners and family med doctors, Enersel Forte is being prescribed. Coupled with free clinics and a sensible school program, it is also recognized and bought by parents of children aged 6 months to 12 years old,” SEL-J Pharma Chief Executive Officer Jay Lacnit says.

When SEL-J launched Enersel Forte, the company also held a medical mission for children in Laguna, where free medicines and vitamins were given after consultation with physicians. (http://www.malaya.com.ph)

Organic Certification For The VCO In Indonesia, Is It Possible?

Although almost all the coconut plantations in Indonesia were never fertilized with chemical fertilizers, but it is difficult to obtain organic certification, why? This is because the location of coconut plantation is generally adjacent to agricultural land use chemical fertilizers and various pesticides that coconut plantation will be exposed to its influence.Location of coconut plantation is quite far from agriculture is likely to be found outside the island of Java, while Java is almost non-existent.

Organic certification that requires for certifying of plantation as raw material sourse and its production processes VCO aspect, will generally be constrained to issue plantation as be described above. Of course this will be very difficult for VCO producers in Indonesia especially in Java who have buyers who require organic certification as above.

Raw Material Is The Key Factor in VCO Production

Although various methods or processes have been developed by different parties, but the quality of raw material  (coconut fruit)  is a key factor to obtain a quality VCO. It means that the ability to select materials that will make the quality of the resulting VCO will be stable. Old coconut fruit with certain varieties and where the growth will mainly determine the levels of lauric acid content.

The reliable VCO manufacturer certainly has a strong sense to make the selection of raw materials. Some cases show that to obtain a quality VCO is not easy especially for a large quantity. This is because of the availability of raw materials, production processes and markets as the main variable of this business. Some VCO manufacturers capable of producing quality VCO marked especially by the delicious smell like fresh coconut and high lauric acid content, but the quantity is not much that if there is a large quantity order will be trouble.

HEALTH OILS FROM THE TREE OF LIFE (NUTRITIONAL AND HEALTH ASPECTS OF COCONUT OIL) adapted from Jon J. Kabara, Ph.D*

Coconut Tree

Coconut and palm tree has a long history of providing man with useful materials for his daily life. None is more important than the oils obtained from these coconut and palm nut. Coconut and palm kernel oils were recognized as health oils in Ayurvedic medicine almost 4000 years ago.


The same health effects were also found in Sanskrit medicine for mother’s milk. Mention was made that freshly expressed human milk was adopted as an "antibiotic" after eye surgery. Modern research has now found a common link between these two natural health products----their fat or lipid content.


For over thirty years Kabara's lipid laboratory has pioneered finding relationships between natural and synthetic lipids and their biological activity. Kabara indicated that the fatty acids and monoglycerides found in these two natural products had extraordinary antimicrobial properties.


Over a period of 30 years his teams screened other lipids hoping too improve on nature. During this period they screened some 300 lipids and other structures for antimicrobial activity.


His team failed and so Kabara returned to nature for clues. The medium chain fatty acids and monoglycerides found primarily in these two

Monolaurin

tropical oils and mothers milk have miraculous healing power. It is rare in thehistory of medicine to find substances that have such useful properties and still be without toxicity or even harmful side effects.
