Benefit Evidence
Research sources
Antimicrobial (4)
- Reduction in Staphylococcus aureus growth and exotoxin production and in vaginal interleukin 8 levels due to glycerol monolaurate in tampons
PubMed ID: 19863450
GML-treated tampons lowered S. aureus exotoxin production and reduced a vaginal inflammation marker—strong antibacterial/microbicide signal.
- Novel antibacterial and emollient effects of coconut and virgin olive oils in adult atopic dermatitis
PubMed ID: 19134433
Topical virgin coconut oil markedly reduced Staphylococcus aureus colonization on atopic dermatitis sites.
- Oral Helicobacter pylori, its relationship to successful eradication of gastric H. pylori and saliva culture confirmation
PubMed ID: 25179088
GML+lysine mouthwash largely cleared oral H. pylori and increased gastric eradication success, demonstrating antibacterial effect in the oral/gastric context.
- Glycerol monolaurate inhibits Candida and Gardnerella vaginalis in vitro and in vivo but not Lactobacillus
PubMed ID: 20008774
Vaginal GML gel lowered yeast (Candida) counts in vivo, providing clinical antifungal evidence for GML formulation.
Gut health (3)
- Five Percent Monolaurin Vaginal Gel for the Treatment of Bacterial Vaginosis: A Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial
PubMed ID: 32379102
5% monolaurin gel increased Lactobacillus counts in the vagina despite no BV cure, showing an effect on local microbial composition.
- Oral Helicobacter pylori, its relationship to successful eradication of gastric H. pylori and saliva culture confirmation
PubMed ID: 25179088
GML+lysine mouthwash largely cleared oral H. pylori, indicating meaningful modulation of the oral (not intestinal) microbiome.
- Glycerol monolaurate inhibits Candida and Gardnerella vaginalis in vitro and in vivo but not Lactobacillus
PubMed ID: 20008774
Vaginal GML gel reduced Candida and Gardnerella while leaving Lactobacillus unchanged, indicating microbiome-sparing pathogen reduction (vaginal niche).
Inflammation (2)
- Novel antibacterial and emollient effects of coconut and virgin olive oils in adult atopic dermatitis
PubMed ID: 19134433
Topical coconut oil decreased atopic dermatitis severity and S. aureus colonization, reflecting reduced skin inflammation.
- Reduction in Staphylococcus aureus growth and exotoxin production and in vaginal interleukin 8 levels due to glycerol monolaurate in tampons
PubMed ID: 19863450
Tampons finished with GML reduced vaginal IL-8, a clear marker of reduced local inflammation.
Oral health (1)
- Oral Helicobacter pylori, its relationship to successful eradication of gastric H. pylori and saliva culture confirmation
PubMed ID: 25179088
Mouthwash containing glycerol monolaurate (plus lysine) largely cleared oral H. pylori and was associated with higher gastric eradication, a direct oral hygiene outcome.
Allergy relief (1)
- Novel antibacterial and emollient effects of coconut and virgin olive oils in adult atopic dermatitis
PubMed ID: 19134433
Improvement in atopic dermatitis (an allergic inflammatory condition) with coconut oil suggests potential allergy-related symptom relief.
Skin health (1)
- Novel antibacterial and emollient effects of coconut and virgin olive oils in adult atopic dermatitis
PubMed ID: 19134433
Topical virgin coconut oil (rich in lauric acid/monolaurin precursors) significantly reduced S. aureus colonization and improved atopic dermatitis severity.
