In this podcast, we’re going to talk about MCT oil—specifically the different types of fatty acids and their different functions.


What's MCT oil?

MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) are types of fat that don’t need help from your gallbladder. They can be turned into ketones pretty fast. Medium-chain triglycerides can be extracted from coconut oil or palm oil. MCTs are really good for people starting out in ketosis.
