This organic MCT oil is a purified form of coconut oil, derived from mature coconuts, that is rich in Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) 98% C6, C8 & C10. These are a type of dietary fat most commonly found in coconuts.
MCT Oil is odourless and unflavoured, making it a suitable to add to a range of foods and drinks. It has a low smoke point of 160C so it is best added to fresh and uncooked foods like smoothies, salads, dressings, coffee and hot drinks. It can also be taken straight.
MCT stands for ‘medium chain triglycerides’ which refers to the length of the carbon chains in the oil. It is easily absorbed and converted in the liver to ketones which help fuel the brain and body for mental and physical performance. As it is more readily available to fuel the body, it is less likely to be stored as fat.
Take 1-2 teaspoons per day to begin with. It can be slowly increased in 1-2 tsp increments weekly. Maximum 2 tablespoons advised.
