MCT oils in the BeKeto store

Although many people still overlook the potentials of MCTs, it should be one of the more important parts of the diet for athletes, physically active people and those on a ketogenic diet.

The MCT oil formulations that our company produces are excellent for supporting the digestive and immune systems, as well as the production of ketone bodies. Due to the different needs of our customers, MCT oil can be found in many different variants.

You can choose between products in oil and powder form. You can find formulations with just caprylic acid (C10), caprylic acid (C8), or products containing a combination of both. More common is MCT in oil form, but there are some people who are too sensitive to it. Therefore, for them MCT powder is recommended, which our store also offers, so everyone will find something ideal for themselves in the assortment.

What is MCT oil?

MCT oil is a type of oil made up of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). It is commonly derived from coconut oil or palm kernel oil. MCTs are a type of saturated fat that are metabolized differently than other types of fat, making them a popular supplement for those following a ketogenic or low-carbohydrate diet.

Reducing saturated fats is most often recommended, but there is an exception to this - MCT oil. The distinction between unsaturated and saturated fats is less important for health than their division into long-chain and medium-chain. Unlike other saturated fats, MCT oil is medium-chain. Therefore, although it is classified as a saturated fat, it is significantly different from other compounds in this group. It is different in terms of properties and absorption. Other saturated fats raise cholesterol, so they can negatively affect health. Supplementation with MCT oil should be taken by athletes, physically active people who want to lose weight and those who lead a healthy lifestyle. It is a good way to add variety to your daily diet. MCT oil is recommended for people on keto as well as those on a low carbohydrate diet.

Coconut oil and unrefined palm oil are considered the best sources of MCT oil. The capric, caprylic and caprylic acids in the oil are responsible for its properties. In high-quality products, close attention is paid to the correct ratio between capric and caprylic acids.

MCT oil can be found in both oil and powder form, and different formulations may contain only caprylic acid (C8), capric acid (C10), or a combination of both. The dosage should not exceed 50 ml per day. MCT oil can be added to many foods and is popularly added to coffee, herb butter, salad dressings, and water.

Benefits of using MCT oil

The fact that MCT oil is so often present in health food stores is no coincidence. It has a lot of valuable health properties, which will not only be appreciated by athletes, but by everyone who wants to take care of fitness and prevent diseases. Caprylic acid found in the oil stimulates the digestive system. In addition, it shows anti-inflammatory properties and is an alternative for the brain to draw energy. Because it does not draw it from carbohydrates, the oil is suitable for people on a ketone diet. Capric acid, on the other hand, is easily absorbed, but at the same time the body converts it into energy more slowly. In addition, it has antiviral properties. Its advantages do not end there.

MCT oil has beneficial effects on intestinal function, including normal intestinal flora. Going along with this, it is important for the immune system. As mentioned earlier, it has antiviral and antifungal effects. It is used for health problems such as Candida overgrowth and short bowel syndrome. Some studies suggest that by having an effect on brain function, including memory, MCT oil may be invaluable in the diet of people suffering from Alzheimer's disease.

Cholesterol is also worth mentioning. Not only do medium-chain fats not contribute to bad cholesterol, but they also improve your lipid profile and your cholesterol may improve.

Oils on a ketogenic diet - when to use MCTs?

The ketogenic diet is characterized by the fact that the recommended proportions of nutrients are changed. In contrast to the usual diet, the basis is not carbohydrates, but fats. Proteins and carbohydrates account for 10 to 20%, and the rest is just fats. The effectiveness, efficiency and health impact of the diet depends on what foods you use and what supplements you support your body with, which is very important with ketosis. How does MCT oil relate to this?

First of all, it is an excellent source of energy, which on the one hand can be used easily and quickly, and on the other hand does not contribute to the rise in blood glucose. So there is no insulin release and the sugar level stabilizes. This is very important when it comes to weight control.

With a ketogenic diet, ketosis occurs in the body, meaning that energy is taken from fats instead of carbohydrates. This is exactly what happens with MCT oils. This is even more important because medium chain fats increase the number of ketone bodies in the blood.

Dosage is an important issue, because if there is too much of it in the diet, despite all the health-promoting properties, it can increase cholesterol levels. Nevertheless, there are no official standards related to the dosage. It is assumed that a safe daily dose is no more than 50 ml.

How to consume MCT oil?

MCT oil can be added to many foods. Adding it to coffee is extremely popular, but there are many more possibilities. It will work well as an ingredient in herb butter, salad dressing, water, or a smoothie. You can reach for it before and after a workout. Interesting recipes using MCT oil are posted on our website.

It is interesting to note that MCT works well not only as a dietary ingredient, because it will also find use in skin care. It is easily absorbed and the skin will be smooth and firm. It works especially well when combined with essential oils.
