MCT Oil
Form: 32 fl oz (957 mL)
Pure Medium-Chain Triglycerides for Supporting Health and Well-Being*
MCT Oil provides a high proportion of capric acid (C10) and caprylic acid (C8) from pure coconut - nature’s richest source of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), however, coconut is predominantly rich in lauric acid (C12), which may not be as beneficial as capric acid and caprylic acid.
As such, consuming coconut oil is not the same thing as consuming NutriDyn MCT Oil, which is made through proprietary processes to yield an oil that contains over 12 grams combined of capric acid and caprylic acid in each serving (providing 14 grams of total fat).
Why Use MCT Oil?
Research suggests that regular consumption of MCTs, particularly capric acid and caprylic acid, may have a multitude of benefits throughout the body, specifically for supporting gastrointestinal integrity, cardiovascular function, skin health, metabolic function, and more.*
Key benefits of the MCT Oil formula:
- Supports healthy cardiovascular function*
- Supports healthy gastrointestinal integrity*
- Promotes skin vitality*
- Cognitive support*
- Promotes ketone body production (in conjunction with a very-low-carb diet)*
- Easy-to-digest and add to almost any food or liquid
How MCT Oil Works
MCTs are a special class of triglycerides (fats) that contain between
6-12 carbons in their fatty acid chain structure. While most dietary
fats are long-chain triglycerides, which are digested and absorbed
through the lymphatic system, MCTs are rapidly absorbed through
the portal system and readily oxidized.
Thus, MCTs serve as an efficient energy source for the body. Many
individuals on low-carb diets (like the ketogenic diet) will use MCT
oil throughout the day to help support their energy levels, cognitive
function, and ketone body production.
Moreover, research suggests that regular consumption of MCTs,
particularly capric acid and caprylic acid, may have a multitude of
benefits throughout the body, specifically for supporting gastro-
intestinal integrity, cardiovascular function, skin health, metabolic
function, and more.
