MCT Oil by Protocol for Life Balance

MCTs (Medium-Chain Triglycerides) are a type of fat that is metabolized differently than most dietary fats. Unlike long-chain triglycerides, MCTs require little or no enzymatic breakdown and are rapidly absorbed across the wall of the small intestine and delivered straight to the liver. This allows them to be used directly for energy production (instead of being stored as fat), acting similarly to carbohydrates without the requirement of insulin and with no affect on blood sugar.Research has demonstrated that incorporating MCT Oil into a balanced diet may help to support healthy body weight and maintain lean tissue. This makes MCT Oil a unique dietary supplement on the market that may help to address symptoms of metabolic imbalances. It contains no artificial ingredients and is a natural source of energy.
