So Coconut Inhibits 5ar, What About Coco-Glucoside?

Hey,

I read a few opinions here and on other websites that coconut oil inhibits 5ar due to lauric acid and their high beta sitesterol content.

Beta sitesterol is a 5ar inhibitor:

Anyways, my question isn't about that anyway. I have a product that has Coco-Glucoside (derived from coconut oil) in it, hence I wonder if lauric acid and beta sitesterol is separated from Coco-Glucoside. Thanks.

Couldn't find if the fatty alcohol has c12(lauric acid) in it. Maybe someone else knows.
By the way, that's not the only thread haidut made in regards to coconut oil being androgenic.
