Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are a type of fat that is found in certain oils and dairy products. MCT oil is a concentrated form of these fats.

We recommend as a gentle addition to a gut health protocol due to its anti-microbioal properties and like to add to morning coffee to ensure ingestion of good fats to ensure slow release of energy. 

Some potential benefits of MCT oil include:

  1. Quick Source of Energy: MCTs are rapidly absorbed by the body and transported to the liver, where they can be quickly converted into energy. This makes MCT oil a convenient and efficient energy source, particularly for individuals following ketogenic or low-carbohydrate diets.

  2. Weight Management: Some studies suggest that MCTs may help with weight management by promoting a feeling of fullness and increasing the number of calories burned. They are less likely to be stored as fat compared to long-chain triglycerides (LCTs).

  3. Improved Cognitive Function: The rapid conversion of MCTs into ketones in the liver provides an alternative energy source for the brain. Ketones may have neuroprotective properties and are considered a more efficient fuel for the brain, potentially improving cognitive function.

  4. Supports Ketosis: MCTs can help individuals maintain or enter a state of ketosis, where the body primarily uses fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates. This is especially relevant for those following a ketogenic diet.

  5. Enhanced Exercise Performance: The quick energy provided by MCTs may benefit athletes and individuals engaging in high-intensity exercise, helping to improve endurance and performance.

  6. Digestive Health: MCTs have been suggested to have antibacterial and antiviral properties, which may contribute to a healthier gut environment. They can also be easier to digest for individuals with certain digestive issues compared to LCTs.

  7. Blood Sugar Regulation: Some studies suggest that MCTs may help regulate blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity, which could be beneficial for individuals with insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes.

  8. Heart Health: While more research is needed, some studies indicate that MCTs may have a neutral or slightly positive effect on cardiovascular health by improving lipid profiles.

It's important to note that while MCT oil offers potential benefits, individual responses may vary. Additionally, excessive consumption of MCT oil can lead to digestive issues, and it is calorie-dense, so moderation is key. As with any dietary supplement, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional, especially if you have specific health concerns or conditions.
