Description
MCT oil is a dietary supplement derived from coconut or palm kernel oil, containing medium-chain triglycerides. It is produced through fractionation and offers potential benefits such as weight management, improved cognitive function, and increased energy levels due to its unique metabolic properties. Dosage should be gradually increased from 5 grams up to 20 grams to assess tolerance. Common side effects, primarily gastrointestinal distress, are generally dose-dependent and manageable. While research suggests potential benefits, long-term effects and optimal dosage strategies are still under investigation.
