Pure C8 MCT Oil in Softgel Form · 60 Capsules

Bulletproof® Brain Octane® C8 MCT Softgels

Bulletproof’s 100% pure caprylic acid (C8) MCT oil in convenient softgel form. Same C8 MCT as the liquid Brain Octane Oil, but portioned into capsules for travel, portability, and mess-free use.

60 softgels · 1000mg C8 MCT per softgel · 30 servings at 2 softgels each.

Key Points

  • 100% caprylic acid (C8) MCT oil — the same oil as Brain Octane, in softgel form
  • Travel-friendly — no bottle, no spill risk, no measuring; take the bottle in a bag or carry-on
  • Portioned dosing — each softgel contains 1000mg (1g) of C8 MCT oil
  • 60 softgels per bottle — 30 servings at 2 softgels each
  • Made from coconut oil — the C8 fraction is separated through fractional distillation
  • Suits ketogenic or low-carb dietary patterns and people who don’t want to add liquid oil to food or drinks

What It Is

This is Bulletproof Brain Octane C8 MCT oil in softgel form. The oil inside each softgel is the same product as the liquid Brain Octane bottles — 100% pure caprylic acid (C8) medium-chain triglyceride oil made from coconut.

The softgel format is for people who want the C8 MCT profile but don’t want to carry, measure, or add liquid oil to food or drinks. Useful when travelling, at the office, on a plane, or when Bulletproof Coffee isn’t the target and you just want the MCT oil itself.

No added vitamins, no proprietary blends, no fillers you don’t need. The softgel shell is standard gelatin.

Ingredients & Sourcing

Fill (inside the softgel): 100% caprylic acid (C8) medium-chain triglyceride oil from coconut.

Softgel shell: Gelatin, glycerin, purified water.

Processing: The C8 fraction is separated from coconut oil through fractional distillation (no chemical solvents), then encapsulated.

How to Use

The suggested serving is 2 softgels (2g of C8 MCT), taken with a meal or drink. Softgels can be taken:

  • With a meal — MCT oil goes down more comfortably with food than on an empty stomach
  • Before or with coffee — if you like the C8 MCT profile but want to skip the Bulletproof Coffee prep
  • On the go — when travelling, at the office, or when you don’t have a blender handy

Start small. If you’re new to MCT oil, begin with 1 softgel per day and increase gradually. Taking too much too quickly is a common cause of digestive discomfort — MCTs are absorbed differently from other fats, and the gut may need time to adapt.

Good to Know

Softgels or liquid oil?

Both contain the same C8 MCT oil. Softgels suit travel, portability, and situations where you don’t want to add liquid to food or drinks. The liquid Brain Octane Oil is more economical per gram and is what you need for the Bulletproof Coffee recipe (2 tablespoons = 30 softgels worth, which isn’t practical to swallow).

Are these vegetarian or vegan?

The softgel shell contains beef gelatin, so these softgels are not vegetarian or vegan. For a vegan-compatible C8 MCT source, use the liquid Brain Octane Oil instead.

Can I take these on a plane?

Yes — softgels are a solid dosage form, so they aren’t subject to the 100mL carry-on liquid limit. This makes them useful for international travel or as an easy backup when you can’t bring an oil bottle.

How does 2g of MCT oil compare to a tablespoon?

One tablespoon of liquid Brain Octane is about 14g of MCT oil. Two softgels give 2g. So the softgel serving is much smaller than a typical Bulletproof Coffee tablespoon. If your goal is the same daily intake as a tablespoon of oil, you’d need to work through more softgels per day — which is one reason softgels are more of a supplemental format rather than the primary way most regular MCT users get their intake.

Bulletproof Brain Octane SoftGels

I’ve been dealing with brain fog on and off for a fair while now and this product has restored consistently clear thinking for me which has provided a welcome relief from mental exhaustion and therefore returned energy to me for my physical health. Very grateful and very impressed. Thank you 🙏🏼

Two words: Ease + Convenience

There’s not too much to say about this one other than it’s hands down the easiest and most convenient way to get your MCT boost throughout the day.

I started my keto journey with coconut oil, then I moved to MCT oil, before moving to straight C8 MCT oil, which is the best type as your body converts it to ketones the quickest.

Will definitely be stocking up on this one.

Awesome product! I have been taking these for about a month. I have noticed an increase in energy, and I believe they are helping lift the pretty extreme ‘brain fog’ I experience due to a chronic illness.
If I miss taking them, I definitely notice a difference. Love them!

Helps with energy when you need it most

Been taking this at the time of day I need it most: when I need an energy kick in the last few hours before my work ends and I’m saving my stomach for dinner. I can work more productively in those last few hours with this supplement.

Feeling Great

I am reasonably fit and healthy and take a bit of a "supplement stack". To be perfectly honest, how would I know which one is doing what - are there synergies? are there anti-synergies perhaps? Regardless, I added these guys to my stack a year or so back and I feel terrific. No brain fog! For me it's all about "healthspan"....get to a good age but healthily and hopefully with my wits about me hopefully with the help of "Brain Octane C8 MCT Oil". Great work Optimoz! Thanks.

Fantastic service and ability to deliver against all odds

I work in Papua New Guinea and Optimoz managed to send me these supplements against all odds and within one week. What an incredible turnaround time and service. They were very helpful and patient with me and ensured that they kept track of the package on their end. The gels arrived safely to me and so far so good. The most important thing to consider is optimoz's customer service quality and promise of delivery of satisfaction guaranteed. They haven't let me down once.

Thank you Optimoz. I am a very happy customer.

Well worth it.

I’m an 80 year old and had been getting concerned about the number of times I have been word searching during the last 12 months. My cardiologist suggested MCTs so I searched for them. I bought 3 bottles the Brain Octane Softgels. I haven’t even finished the first bottle yet ... 2 in the morning and 1 at lunch time. While I still word search, (although definitely not so much), when I do, it only takes a few seconds to find the lost word. I am so looking forward to what my brain can do with further supplementation of these great little bullets. I’ll be on them for the rest of my life I reckon.
