MCT oil is a supplement made from a type of fat called medium chain triglycerides.
MCT molecules are smaller than those in most fats we eat (long-chain triglycerides [LCT]). This makes them easier to digest. You can quickly absorb MCT in the blood and then use it for energy.
Pure Nutrition MCT oil is made from coconut oil - the most popular source of MCT.
The oil helps to lose weight by helping you reduce the amount of food you eat. It keeps you full longer, so you eat less food and fewer calories. MCT oil has about 10% fewer calories than long-chain triglycerides (LCT), which are found in foods such as olive oil, nuts and avocados. It also has the ability to improve your intestinal environment, which is very important when it comes to your weight. MCT oil can help optimize the growth of good bacteria and support the lining of the gut, which can also help you lose weight.
MCT OIL DURING KETO DIET
Your body produces ketones when you break down very low-carb fats. This can lower your insulin levels and help you burn fat. MCT helps you produce more ketones. This can help you get to the fat burning phase faster.
MCT OIL to increase energy in athletes
MCT can increase the amount of energy used by your muscles. In addition, taking MCT oil before a workout can help you use more fat instead of carbohydrates for energy.
MCT OIL for concentration
MCT can help your body produce ketones, a carbohydrate-free energy source for your brain. This will make you more focused and fresh.
MCT OIL for healthier and more radiant skin
MCT can also help soothe and treat skin infections. The lauric acid in MCT acts as an antimicrobial agent, breaking down the walls of bacteria and viruses to destroy them.
