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 are more effective for:
- Metabolism: MCTs metabolise faster, enhancing protein metabolism and energy expenditure.
- Weight Loss: MCTs lead to greater weight loss and reduced body fat compared to LCTs.
- Energy Utilisation: MCTs increase thermogenesis more than LCTs.
- Blood Lipids: MCTs improve serum lipid profiles without adversely affecting lipid levels.
- Protein Sparing: MCTs in nutrition improve nitrogen retention and protein sparing.
- Glucose Metabolism: MCTs positively affect insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism.
- Fat Oxidation: MCT ingestion enhances postprandial (post meal) fat degradation and increases fat oxidation.
- Satiety: MCTs can provide a feeling of fullness, reducing appetite and cravings.
