What This Product Is

Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are a category of fats characterised by their carbon chain length. C8 (caprylic acid, also called octanoic acid) is the 8-carbon MCT. C8 is one of several MCT fractions naturally found in coconut oil.

Most "MCT oil" products on the market contain a blend of MCT fractions — typically a mix of C8 and C10 (capric acid), and sometimes C12 (lauric acid). Primal Warrior C8 MCT Oil contains only C8 — a single MCT fraction at higher purity than typical blended MCT products.

The product is intended as a culinary oil for shoppers who specifically want pure C8 rather than a mixed MCT blend. Common uses are mixing into coffee or smoothies, drizzling into salad dressings, or as a cooking oil for low-heat preparations.

Why Pure C8 Instead of a Standard MCT Blend

Not all MCT oils are the same. Many products combine C8, C10, and sometimes C12. This formula contains only C8 caprylic acid for shoppers who want the most concentrated C8 option:

Feature Primal Warrior C8 MCT Oil Standard MCT Blend
MCT profile 100% caprylic acid (C8) Usually mixed C8/C10 or C8/C10/C12
Best suited to Shoppers specifically seeking pure C8 Shoppers wanting a general-purpose MCT oil
Daily use Coffee, matcha, smoothies, dressings Also usable, but not pure-fraction
Source Coconut only Often coconut + palm oil blend

Choose this if you want pure C8. Choose a blend if fraction purity isn’t important to you and you want a more general-purpose MCT oil.

Sourcing and Production

100% coconut, no palm oil. Many MCT oils on the market combine coconut and palm oil sources. This product uses coconut oil only. Palm oil production is often associated with deforestation and orangutan habitat loss in Southeast Asia — using coconut-only avoids contributing to that supply chain.

Batch tested. Each batch is tested and the certificate of analysis is published. The current batch test results are available here.

$1 per bottle from every Primal Warrior C8 MCT Oil sale is donated to an orangutan conservation foundation.

How to Use

Step 1 — Start small

Begin with 1 teaspoon (5ml) per day and build gradually based on individual tolerance. MCT oil can cause digestive sensations (loose stools, stomach discomfort) if introduced at too high a dose. Most people tolerate 1–2 tablespoons per day after a gradual build-up.

Step 2 — Add to your routine

Common uses: blend into coffee or matcha, mix into smoothies, drizzle onto salads, use in dressings, or as a finishing oil. Suitable for low-heat cooking.

Step 3 — Use consistently

Often used as part of keto, low-carb, paleo, or fasting-friendly food routines. Can be incorporated as a regular dietary fat source.

Packaging

MCT oils interact with their packaging over time, so packaging materials matter. This bottle is BPA-, BPS-, and BPF-free — selected for compatibility with oil-based products.

1L format provides better value for daily users than typical 250ml or 500ml bottles. Also available in 3-bottle and 6-bottle packs for bulk-buying.

Good to Know

What is MCT oil made from?

Medium-chain triglycerides occur naturally in coconut oil and palm oil. This product extracts the C8 (caprylic acid) fraction from coconut oil only.

Is this a blended MCT oil?

No. It is a pure C8 product rather than a mixed C8/C10 or C8/C10/C12 blend.

What does it taste like?

Essentially odourless and tasteless. Designed not to alter the taste of beverages or food you mix it into.

Can I cook with this oil?

It can be used for low-heat cooking. Avoid high-temperature frying — MCT oil has a relatively low smoke point (around 150°C) compared to oils like coconut oil or olive oil. It’s best used as a finishing oil, drizzle, or in dressings.

Why no palm oil?

Palm oil production is often associated with deforestation and habitat loss for endangered species, particularly orangutans in Southeast Asia. This product sources only from coconut to avoid contributing to that supply chain.

What happens if I take too much?

Introducing MCT oil at too high a dose too quickly can cause digestive sensations such as loose stools, stomach cramps, or nausea. Start with 1 teaspoon and build up gradually over a week or two.

Why is the bottle BPA/BPS/BPF-free?

MCT oil is a lipophilic (fat-soluble) liquid that can interact with bottle materials over time. The selected bottle material is free of bisphenols (BPA, BPS, BPF) for compatibility with oil products.

Is the orangutan donation real?

Yes — $1 from every bottle sold is donated to an orangutan conservation foundation. The donation is part of the product’s commitment to a palm-oil-free supply chain that aligns with conservation goals.
