MCT Oil 500 ml Nyttoteket

MCT oil is one of the absolute fastest sources of pure energy for your body and brain. An excellent addition to boost your active lifestyle.MCT stands for medium-chained triglycerides, which are recognized for providing quick energy since they are not metabolized like traditional fatty acids. These medium-chain fatty acids diffuse from the small intestine into the portal vein and eventually reach the liver, where they are converted into direct energy for the body in the form of ketones. Ketones are one of the two energy sources the brain uses.Nyttoteket’s MCT oil is exclusively based on coconut oil. We package our MCT oil in dark glass bottles to prevent plastic from leaching into the oil and to protect it from light. We have actively chosen to avoid palm oil-based MCT oil, as palm oil production contributes to the destruction of habitats, including those of orangutans—something we do not want to support. The oil contains 65% caprylic acid (C8) and 35% capric acid (C10). These two types of fatty acids are particularly valuable for their quick conversion to direct energy in the body compared to traditional fatty acids.
