What does it do?

Palm oil is a plant-based fat extracted from the fruit of the oil palm tree, primarily used in pharmaceuticals for nutritional supplementation and energy supply. Fats are an important energy source in the body, particularly beneficial for patients with poor nutritional status.

The fats contained in palm oil are broken down in the body and utilized as an energy source. This provides the energy necessary for maintaining and recovering physical strength.
