What is MCT oil?
You may have seen this term often, yet may still be wondering what it really is or why everyone is talking about it? Simply put, MCT oil is a concentrated source of 100% MCTs known for boosting metabolism, energy production, and improving mental focus. It’s popular with bodybuilders and endurance athletes who use it to increase energy, decrease body fat, and increase lean muscle mass.
What is MCT Oil?
MCT oil is short for Medium-Chain-Triglycerides, a triglyceride consists of three fatty acids and a glycerol molecule. This all natural, saturated fat, derived from refined coconut or palm kernel oil, and extracted. Making it 100% pure, this process is called fractionation. This separates the MCT from the original oil and concentrates it.
MCT Oil in a Keto Diet
MCT oil is popular among those following a keto diet. A keto or ketogenic diet is a low-carb, moderate protein, higher-fat diet that can help you burn fat more effectively. The high intake of fat and low intake of carbs puts your body in a state of nutritional ketosis, in which it burns fat instead of glucose for fuel.
While you eat far fewer carbohydrates on a keto diet, you maintain moderate protein consumption and may increase your intake of fat. The reduction in carb intake puts your body in a metabolic state called ketosis, where fat, from your diet and from your body, is burned for energy. Yes, you can burn your own fat and turn it into energy with the help of MCT oil! There has also been evidence that it may boost strength and endurance in your workouts, by raising energy levels in your muscles.
Compared with coconut oil, MCT oil is better for ketone production and maintaining ketosis. Fatty acids that promote the formation of ketones are called ketogenic.
