The product is comprised primarily of free fatty acids, with the majority identified as Palmitic, Oleic, Linoleic, Stearic, and Myristic acids. There may be residual triglycerides in trace amounts, however, no additional testing is performed to further confirm or identify these components. The method of manufacturing is considered proprietary. The analytical data does suggest that the product has been refined to some degree.
