MCT Oil (Medium Chain Triglycerides) - 16 ounces

Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) are unique vegetable-source fats that digest easily, and yield about ten percent fewer calories than other fats or oils. MCTs can be a valuable part of a weight control program since they enhance metabolism and help suppress appetite when taken before meals. MCTs readily enter the mitochondria where they can be burned as fuel, and so they contribute less to fat storage than other fats or oils.

MCTs" rapid uptake and metabolic conversion makes them popular with athletes seeking to increase energy levels and endurance during high-intensity exercise. MCTs can also provide an alternative energy source for high-protein, low-carbohydrate diets.

Since MCTs are stable toward oxidation, they do not increase the body"s requirement for vitamin E as polyunsaturated oils do. MCTs have been shown to provide benefits in the areas of cardiovascular health, blood sugar support and immune function.
