I have been using and recommending virgin coconut oil for quite some time. There are numerous beneficial reasons to take mct oil.
Here are some of the benefits of this coconut oil:
Production of ketones due to the medium chain triglyceride (MCT) content, which helps to metabolise fats. (Many weight loss products on the market today include ketones plus a host of additional elements which are not that beneficial to your health). Not that I see this as a weight loss product but it definitely helps to balance weight and reduces fat around the middle.
Further more, it helps clear the brain, reduces sugar cravings, improves immune system, helps the bowel and candida and is said to help prevent
Alzheimer’s.
Great for skin and hair. Reduces and even clears dandruff. (Experience with clients and animals)
I now use the pure MCT version from Canada which is liquid and easily absorbed and digested in ways that by-pass the normal fat absorption
channels. Making it ideal for those needing quick energy during continuous and strenuous exercise.
MCT oil is understood to have thermogenic properties, supporting conversion of fat into energy promoting weight balance while preserving muscle tissue.
MCT oil is a pure blend of medium chain triglycerides. It is composed of 60% caprylic acid and 40% from capric acid. The triglycerides come from coconut oil and palm oil.
MCT oil helps with weight balance, sustaining intensive exercise or where fat absorption is a problem.
MCT oils are quickly metabolized by the liver. Their unique structure and biological role makes them an ideal source of energy helping fat burning, improving muscle energy, and increasing the body’s production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). A number of clinical studies have suggested that supplementing medium chain triglycerides in place of other saturated fats may be helpful in maintaining a healthy body weight.
MCT oil is understood to be helpful for those who have fat absorption problems. Additionally it is believed to enhance control of problematic micro-organisms in the intestinal system. These harmful microbes can often be implicated in Crohns disease, candida and IBS.
MCT oil is not an essential fatty acid so it is advisable to still take a good omega 3 as well. Such as krill or Flax.
Use: Take 1 tablespoon daily to help all the above and sustain energy and burn excess fat. Initially start with 1 teaspoonful if sensitive. And
for children.
Most of my clients swear by it.
Even my daughter who is a ‘sceptic’ is drinking it now and taking chlorella, you should see her hair and skin.
Find it in good health stores or check out water for health up in Scotland where you can buy your bottle of MCT Coconut Oil online.
