Organic MCT Oil C8 - 500ml
Organic MCT oil C8
Caprylic acid (C8) is one of the MCT fatty acids. MCT stands for Medium Chain. Triglyceride is a type of fatty acid and medium-chain means that the fatty acids have a medium chain. Mattisson organic C8 MCT oil is made from 100% organic coconut oil and contains 99% Caprylic acid and 1% Capric acid.
What are the benefits of MCT fatty acids?
MCT fatty acids are medium chain fatty acids. While long-chain fatty acids first pass through the lymphatic system before being absorbed, medium-chain fatty acids (MCT fats) are absorbed directly into the blood via the intestines. MCT fats are therefore more quickly available as nutrients than long chain fatty acids. This energy can be used quickly by the body.
MCT fatty acids are converted by the body into molecules called ketones. These ketones (and therefore the fats from which they come) play an important role in the Keto diet.
These quickly absorbed fats are also beneficial as nutrients during workouts for athletes.
How do you use MCT oil?
You can use MCT oil to replace other oils and fats. MCT oil has a neutral taste and is suitable for cold and hot use. It gives a creamy twist to coffee or a shake, for example.
