A new study conducted by King Mongkut Thonburi University of Technology in Thailand has shed light on the health benefits of coconut flour. The study found that coconut flour contains mannooligosaccharides, a type of prebiotic fiber that can help fight the spread of colorectal cancer. Mannooligosaccharide extract from coconut powder has been shown to inhibit the proliferation and migration of colorectal cancer cells, prevent capillary formation, promote apoptosis in cancer cells, and reduce the activity of free radicals in the body.
