MCT = Medium Chain Triglycerides MCT's are known for providing quick energy and a sharper brain. They’re absorbed more quickly than other fats and easily converted into energy. The way they are metabolised in your body is unlike other fatty acids and it gives them a unique edge in providing brain fuel and a host of other benefits. MCT's bypass your digestive tract and go straight to your liver where they’re broken down into energy-packed ketones, then sent out to the rest of your body via your bloodstream. That quick conversion of fat to ketones for energy is what most people look for when they buy MCT's. This is a powder for improved tolerance – oils can create a challenge to digest - and makes it much easier to use.
