NuMedica Caprylic Acid is categorized as an 'Other Combinations' supplement, featuring four ingredients with full label transparency. The product includes 1350mg of Caprylic Acid, 100mg of Calcium, 50mg of Magnesium, and 5mg of Zinc. Research suggests Caprylic Acid is commonly used for its potential antifungal properties, while Zinc may support immune function. However, the N+ Score for this product is 49, earning it an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average quality assessment. While 5mg of Zinc is noted as being at a clinical dose, both Calcium and Magnesium are identified as underdosed based on typical clinical recommendations.
