What is the conecting link of coconut oil with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)?
According to Dr. Conrado Dayrit, the coronavirus which has been identified as the virus causing the SARS is also lipid coated which means that lauric fatty acid and monolaurin could possibly have an inactivating effect on it. The pathogenic organisms causing influenza and pneumonia are both part of the list of lipid-coated viruses and bacteria which are found to be inactivated by lauric fatty acid and monolaurin which in turn is derived by the human body from coconut oil. It should be noted that the symptoms being exhibited by SARS infected patients are similar to symptoms of pneumonia and influenza. THEREFORE, by inductive reasoning, it can be said that lauric fatty acid and monolaurin which are derived by the body from coconut oil can be a POTENTIAL CURE FOR SARS.
