Fatty acids from coconut oil rapidly converted to ketones for energy
We rank Medium Chain Triglycerides by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.
Medium Chain Triglycerides, often called MCTs, are a specific type of fat. They are fatty acids, which are the building blocks of fat, that are sourced from coconut oil.
These fats are used because the body can process them more quickly than longer fat chains. They are rapidly converted into ketones, which are alternative fuel molecules that the body and brain can use for energy.
To create the supplement, manufacturers start with coconut oil and use a process to isolate only the medium chain fats. This results in a concentrated oil or powder that contains only the specific fats desired, removing the other components of the original oil.
This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because the process of refining coconut oil to isolate specific fatty acids is more complex than selling raw oil, but the raw materials are widely available.
