MCT stands for ‘Medium Chain Triglycerides’, which are fatty acids derived mainly from coconut oil. MCT’s are shorter in length than most other fats, and can therefore take a shortcut in the body.

Because of this, the body can turn MCT into energy far more quickly and through a different pathway, compared to other types of fats.

Ketones are a powerful fuel for your body that will instantly improve energy, increase fat burn, reduce cravings and improve your mental performance and focus.

MCT’s are often used by athletes who need instant and sustained energy to boost their performance and improve endurance throughout a tough workout. MCT’s can also aid weight loss, assisting to keep blood sugar levels stable and control appetite by keeping you satiated for longer. MCT-oil also improves gut health and reduces inflammation.

All in all we’d say it might be one of the best foods out there that you might not have heard about!

Acacia is a natural prebiotic fiber derived from the sap of the Acacia tree. It's a powerful superfood  that feeds our healthy gut bacteria and supports your body's digestive health, which is the foundation of a healthy body.

Acacia fiber is great to include in your diet for many everyday health benefits. Especially to promote a healthy microbiome

Your microbiome (gut bacteria) is the trillions of live bacteria living in your body and these organisms are crucial to our overall health. Researcher are starting to understand just how much of our health is starting in the gut and how important it is to keep it healthy and flourishing.

Our Microbiome can be compared to a garden where the beautiful flowers are the good bacteria and the weed is the bad bacteria. To stay healthy we need to grow the flowers and minimize the weed. To grow our healthy bacterias in the gut we need to give them plenty of nourishing food (prebiotics=soluble fibers) and Acacia fiber is the holy grail of prebiotics.

Of course, and you should! There are plenty of benefits for you regardless of what diet you’re on. MCT is converted to ketones in the body, and ketones are a powerful source of fuel for everyone.

Start with 1 scoop a day if you’re new to MCT, and then increase gradually to 2-3 scoops daily for optimal results. Larger amounts can have laxative effects, especially if you take it on an empty stomach.

MCT powder has the same effect as MCT oil but is easier for the stomach to digest. It’s also more practical to mix in your coffee or tea without the need of a mixer. MCT oil on the other hand is easier to use in food such as sallad dressings and more, so it all boils down to how you plan to use it.

Regular coconut oil consists of several types of fatty acids with different lengths, but mostly longer chain fatty acids which are absorbed more slowly in the body and can't be used for instant energy.

There are four types of MCT's (medium length fatty acids) in coconut oil. The composition looks like this:

- Caproic acid (C6): <3%
- Caprylic Acid (C8): 6%
- Capric Acid (C10): 9%
- Lauric Acid (C12): +50%

We have extracted C8 (caprylic acid) because it's the most powerful fatty acid thanks to its quick absorption and instant conversion to energy.

Coconut oil has about 6% C8 MCT, while our MCT contains 100% of C8.
