- MCT stands for medium-chain triglycerides.
- A triglyceride is a type of fat or lipid found in your body that plays two main roles: triglycerides can be burned for energy or stored as body fat.
- Most fats, such as those found in meats, olive oil, fish, and avocado, are long-chain triglycerides. These longer and more complex triglycerides take much longer to break down by your body compared to the smaller, less complex MCTs.
- Medium-chain triglycerides can be broken down quite quickly and are therefore considered to be a useful energy source.
- It is believed that because MCTs can be converted into energy, they are less likely to be stored by the body as fat.
- 100% Pure MCT Oil is a convenient and concentrated source of triglycerides that is vegan-friendly, derived exclusively from coconuts through a process called fractionation.
- The fractionation process used in the production of 100% Pure MCT Oil sourced from coconuts uses steam distillation and no chemicals, leaving behind an intact, unadulterated oil that provides the body with 100% MCT.
- It is completely free from palm oil and GMOs.
- It does not contain common allergens such as gluten, dairy, yeast, and soy.
