what is the difference between mct oil and coconut  oil now realize mct oil is extracted from coconut  

oil with mct oil we’re dealing mainly with medium  chain triglycerides now another name for medium  

chain triglycerides is medium chain fatty acids  there are three main categories of fatty acids  

you have the medium chain fatty acids or mct  fats which is right in the middle part okay then  

you have the small chain fatty acids then you have  the long chain fatty acids and so with mcto you’re  

getting just the medium chain fatty acids and with  coconut oil you are getting mct fats but only 15  

versus a hundred percent on the mct oil and so if  you’re trying to get the mct fats with coconut oil  

you’re going to get just a tiny bit of it you’re  going to get a lot of other stuff um and you’re  

also going to get the long chain fatty acids  like 45 with a very small amount of the medium  

chain fatty acids and they also broke down the  specific type of fatty acids with each category  

it’s not that you needed to know that but i just  wanted to include that if you were interested  

all right so what are the advantages of taking  mct oil well number one you’re going to get a lot  

faster digestion and absorption the mct oils are  going to go on very fast versus the coconut oil  

takes a lot longer to digest now with the mct  fats you’re going to get a much faster conversion  

into ketones so you’re going to get these medium  chain triglycerides that are going to all convert  

to ketones versus coconut oil you’re only going  to get 15 of it converting to ketones now mct fats  

are really good for people with outer gallbladder  or with people that have problems with the  

gallbladder or problems with your liver because  mct fats don’t use bile now with coconut oil it’s  

great when you’re cooking with something because  it doesn’t smoke when you have the high heat  

also coconut oil significantly increases hdl it’s  great for the skin it can even decrease plaquing  

it’s good for gingivitis it’s good for your immune  system so it definitely has other great benefits  

now with mct oil it’s great to increase energy  it’s great for brain support okay it’s also good  

for like i said before gallbladder problems  it’s excellent if you have insulin resistance  

it’s good to take if you’re starting a ketogenic  plan or fasting to help you go longer so you’re  

not hungry and you can add it to your coffee you  can add it to your salad dressing or just put it  

right on your salad or just take some with a spoon  but just realize that when you first start taking  

this you want to start off small and gradually  increase it because your body has to get used  

to it if you take too much too fast you may  have digestive problems and one last point  

i want to bring up with mct oil i sell an mct oil  product now most of the mct oil products out there  

mainly get it from one source so a lot of it is  pretty much the same i mean if you look at what  

other companies are charging for mct oil they’re  jacking up the price way too high so definitely  

do your research on the comparison of different  products out there but you’re going to find a  

huge difference in some products that are just  way too expensive all right thanks for watching
