A method is provided for treating pathogens with a lipid-based carrier and organic acids. More specifically the lipid carrier may have a pKa of 2.5-4.0 and/or may be acid oil, such as Acidulated Vegetable Oil. Furthermore, compositions consistent with the method are provided wherein the lipid-based carrier increases antipathogenic action of the organic acid. For example, the carrier may have a pKa that increases the antimicrobial action of the organic acid and/or an additional essential oil. The carrier may be acid oil, such as Acidulated Vegetable Oil derived from soapstocks and/or gums, but is not limited to same. The organic acid may include, but is not limited to, formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, and combinations thereof.
