MCT stands for medium-chain triglycerides, which are fats found in foods like coconut oil. They are metabolized differently than the long-chain triglycerides (LCT), which are found it most other foods. Because of the shorter chain length of the fatty acids, MCTs are rapidly broken down and absorbed into the body, providing fast and sustained energy. MCTs, move through the hepatic portal system to the liver without the need for a longer digestive process. Unlike almost all other foods, MCTs do not require energy to be absorbed, stored or used in the body, making them an almost perfect source of natural energy. MCTs can be used as an instant energy source or turned into ketones, which are substances produced when the liver breaks down large amounts of fat. MCTs produce ketones, which act as an alternative energy source for the brain and can, therefore, improve brain function. MCTs have antiviral and antibacterial properties and may help balance gut bacteria.
