CytoMCT™ contains emulsified medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) with a great-tasting natural pineapple/coconut flavor. Its emulsification allows for unparalleled absorption, and it will completely disperse when mixed into any liquid.
What are MCTs?
MCTs are medium-chain triglycerides from coconut oil and are easily broken down for the body to use as energy instead of being stored as fat! When your liver breaks down fats in the body, they create ketones that provide energy.
Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are a particular type of fatty acid metabolized more fully for energy in the body. Normal fats and oils contain long-chain fatty acids (LCTs). Compared to these fatty acids, MCTs are much shorter in length, thus resembling carbohydrates more than fat. As a result, they are more quickly absorbed by the body and metabolized as fuel. Because of this quick metabolism, the calories in MCTs are very efficiently converted into fuel for immediate use in the mitochondria instead of being stored as fat.
Why are we lacking MCTs?
The modern diet lacks MCT nutrition due to the low use of coconut oil and natural dairy products from a good source.
Benefits of MCTs:
These oils provide beneficial fatty acids into our diet, which are very important for overall health and wellness.
Not only does MCT oil fuel your brain, but it also helps you think more clearly, experience better digestion, balance hormone levels, and fight off infection!
How can I use MCT oil?
Some great ways to incorporate MCT oil are in salad dressing, sauces, beverages or cooking as a source of beneficial fatty acids.
* MCTs have been shown to enhance thermogenesis (heat production) in the body, thereby promoting fat burning.
* MCTs contain fewer calories than LCTs, are metabolized quicker, and actually contribute to an enhanced metabolism to burn even more calories!
* MCT Oil can also be used as a substitute for conventional oils in salad dressings, sauces or cooking as a source of beneficial fatty acids. It is not recommended for use in frying due to its low boiling point.
Recommended Use: Take 2 tsp. Daily alone or mixed into a liquid.
