Jase: What is this MCT oil made from?
Kimmi: Organic coconut-derived medium-chain triglycerides. The panel lists 14g of fat and 100 calories per serving, including caprylic and capric acids.
MCT oil is a dietary fat, not a thermogenic treatment, and it does not guarantee weight loss or a change in body composition. It can cause cramps, nausea or diarrhoea, especially when introduced quickly; the label says to take it with food to reduce stomach upset.
The product is for adults and is not recommended for frying because of its low smoke point. Follow the storage instructions after opening. Coconut-derived ingredients may matter for allergy, and the allergen statement also notes shared-facility processing.
