What is MCT Oil Powder?

As a protein energy bar, a low-fat meal replacement, and a muscle-building protein powder, Mct Powder has always been active around us. Today, we have a comprehensive understanding of the application and efficacy of MCT powder, mainly from the source, mechanism of action and application of MCT powder.

First of all, I will give you a picture: understand the source of MCT powder.

MCT oil

English name: Medium Chain Triglycerides

Chinese name: medium chain triglyceride; caprylic acid triglyceride

State: Colorless or light yellow oil at room temperature, solidified at low temperature.

Source: Medium Chain Fatty Acids from vegetable oils and Glycerin from the same vegetable oils are esterified, distilled, decolorized, deodorized, and filtered.

Medium-chain fatty acids are mainly from two sources:

1. Coconut oil (Coconut Oil-based/CNO-based)

2. Palm oil (Palm Kernel Oil-based/PKO-based)

 

MCT powder

Name: Caprylic acid triglyceride (MCT) powder, also known as medium chain triglyceride powder.

Main effects:

Compared with long-chain fatty acid triglycerides, MCT is easier to be hydrolyzed and absorbed in the stomach and intestines.

It is transported to the liver through the vein, does not participate in the peripheral circulation, quickly supplies energy and does not accumulate fat

effect

1. Replenish the energy needed by the body, speed up the healing and metabolism of body cells.

2. The chain fat of the health food does not accumulate, maintains a healthy weight, and improves metabolism.

3. This product is used as a sports drink to speed up metabolism and provide more energy.

4. This product can be used as pet feed to supplement energy and improve survival rate.

 

 

What is the difference between MCT oil and coconut oil?

 

Coconut oil (CoconutOil) is the best source of medium chain fatty acids (MCT), because coconut oil is rich in 62% MCT. Compared with other vegetable oils, coconut oil is a good fuel oil because it contains a lot of medium chain fatty acids. Can quickly provide human body energy. However, coconut oil contains several different medium-chain fatty acids, and not every medium-chain fatty acid can quickly produce energy.

MCT oil (MediumChainTriglycerides, MCT), Chinese for medium chain fatty acid, is a saturated fatty acid. It is a highly refined edible oil produced through the process of separating fats and oils (fractional distillation), and it contains only medium-chain fatty acids. The MCT oil sold on the market is mostly made from caprylic acid (C8) and capric acid (C10) extracted from coconut oil or palm kernel oil. Compared with long-chain fatty acids with complicated digestion procedures, the rate of digestion and decomposition is about 10 times faster than that of long-chain fatty acids. This is one of the reasons why MCT is burned by the body for energy or “fuel” instead of being stored as fat.

 

 

‌What is the ketogenic diet?

 

The difference between the ketogenic diet and any other diet is that it needs to eat a lot of fat. The body produces a lot of ketones to provide energy instead of using carbohydrates to provide energy. Being in a ketosis state will bring many benefits to the body, including helping maintain healthy energy levels, controlling appetite and helping manage weight. It can also provide energy to the brain. , This will make people’s energy better, more focused, and overall upgrade of the brain’s ability to function. The ketogenic diet can also quickly lower blood sugar and stabilize blood sugar. However, to obtain these benefits, you need to maintain the correct intake of macronutrients. To Although the use of MCT oil to increase fatty acid intake is not entirely necessary, it is undoubtedly a popular and convenient method. This oil is also a source of easy-to-digest fats and has a very weak taste, making it easy to use in drinks and other liquids.

MCT oil is completely colorless, odorless and tasteless. The use of mct oil in coffee is purely to eliminate the bitterness of coffee without using cream, and it does a good job. The following points need your attention.
1) It is not recommended that you take MCT oil alone.
2) It is a bit troublesome to allocate the dose. It is recommended that you use less than one teaspoon for a single dose.
3) You have to use something like a stick mixer to mix it. It still tends to separate over time, which will affect the taste.

 

 

How does MCT promote ketosis?

 

Some people believe that due to the chemical structure of MCT oil, it is easier to convert into ketone bodies, because the human body can break down the carbon bonds of MCT oil more easily than other types of fats (such as long-chain triglycerides). To

The benefits of taking MCT oil on a ketogenic diet include:

1. Help you more easily generate ketone bodies and enter a state of ketosis. After entering the state of ketosis, MCT oil can also help you maintain this state.

2. Help you manage your weight healthily. When on a ketogenic diet, MCT oil and other fats can help reduce hunger and control calories.

3. Help maintain healthy energy levels. When on a ketogenic diet, it is important to consume enough fat, because ketone bodies can be produced; these ketone bodies are used as fuel and help reduce fatigue.

4. Help maintain healthy metabolism and promote metabolic rate. Eating fat sends a signal to the brain that the body is absorbing enough energy, which is helpful for thyroid health and overall calorie burning.

5. Help improve sports endurance and performance.

6. Maintain cognitive function and mental health (strengthen concentration, mental endurance and concentration).

7. Assist people who are undergoing intermittent fasting. Ketones can help control hunger and appetite, allowing you to more easily extend the time of comfortable fasting.

 

 

What are the benefits of MCT oil and coconut oil?

 

MCT oil and coconut oil are often confused as being the same thing, or offering the same benefits, but this is a mistake. There is a lot of hype surrounding coconut oil, but there is a little evidence suggesting that it is completely healthy. The American Heart Association updated its guidelines 2017, urging people to be wary of anything that contains high levels of saturated fat, like coconut oil. This is because saturated fat can raise LDL, or “bad cholesterol” in the body.

Some research suggests that coconut oil may be better about how it impacts cholesterol. In conclusion, experts agree that coconut oil is a better choice when used as an alternative to traditional butter.

Coconut oil is the richest natural source of MCTs, but MCTs make up only about 54% of its fat content. It contains lauric acid, caprylic acid, and capric acid (types of MCTs), and some LCTs, like unsaturated fats, as well. The trouble is, lauric acid digests and absorbs more slowly than other MCTs, so, despite the abundance of MCTs in coconut oil, it’s NOT considered a great choice for those seeking the benefits of MCTs.

MCT oil is often derived from coconut oil, but with MCT oil, you’re getting a pure source of 100% MCTs, with a higher concentration of fast-digesting caprylic acid.

Since MCT oil was first developed, a number of studies have shown some interesting benefits. While the oil is already known to help improve digestion, further research suggests that it may help reduce the risk of people with cardiovascular disease. Another study points to MCT as a way to help patients suffering from dementia or Alzheimer. While oil is not a way to prevent Alzheimer’s disease, research suggests that it can help ease symptoms in individuals who are already suffering from it.
