It is also believed that it lubricates tissues, improves elasticity, enhances memory and stimulates digestion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"jsx-4098198752 c--grey-neutral-800\">Anyway, <strong>there is concern about the presence of saturated fats in its composition<\/strong> and its possible inappropriate use.
