Product Review

MCT stands for medium chain triglycerides, as opposed to long-chain triglycerides (LCT), which are found in most foods. MCT is comprised of primarily caprylic (C8) and capric (C10) fatty acids, and is a light-yellow, odorless, translucent liquid at room temperature. MCT Oil occurs naturally in coconut oil and other foods. Recently, athletes, bodybuilders, and diet gurus have jumped on the MCT bandwagon, embracing its fat burning and energy sustaining powers. So why are so many people claiming this oil is the fuel needed to help burn unwanted body fat? When MCT Oils are into the blood stream, they bypass the digestion process that longer chain fats go through. MCT's provide quick energy for the body and thus less likely to be stored in the fat cells. Further research has shown that when a meal includes MCT's there is a significant increase in the number of calories burned (thermogenic effect.) When more calories are used, fewer are stored as fat, which helps to reduce body fat levels.
