Primal Collective™ Clean 100% C8 MCT Oil. Odourless. Tasteless.
C8 MCT is commonly used by individuals following ketogenic or low-carb diets and is valued for its rapid absorption.
Commonly used in coffee and smoothies by those following low-carb or high-fat diets.
1000ml. 66 x 15ml servings. Our MCT Oil is a single medium chain fatty acid extracted only from coconut oil. No Palm Oil. No added ingredients whatsoever. Often included in morning routines alongside coffee, cacao, or smoothies as part of low-carb or time-restricted eating patterns.
Ingredients: 100% Caprylic Acid MCTs in a BPS, BPF and BPA free bottle.
Because MCTs are solvents, they can also leach material/plasticizers from their storage containers (e.g., phthalates) which can cause issues (endocrine disruptors) over time. This is why we have diligently selected a bottle that is not only BPA free, but also free of the substitutes (analogues) of bisphenol-A: BPS and BPF free.
Also available: C8 MCT Powder

What's the Difference between MCT Oil and Coconut OIl?
Primal C8 MCT Oil | Coconut Oil (source ) |
|---|---|
C8 Caprylic99% |
Coconut oil is made up of only 13% C8 and about 50% C12 (Lauric Acid) which is not an MCT. It is a long chain fatty acid (LCT). Comparing MCTS to LCTS. MCTs differ from LCTs in how they’re digested and absorbed, which is why they’re often preferred in keto and low-carb cooking
