What Is MCT Oil?
9. Helps Maintain a Healthy Body Weight
A person who regularly consumes MCT oils as opposed to LCT oils is likely to maintain a healthy body weight. This happens because MCTs are readily broken down for use as an energy source.
LCTs on the other hand go through complex digestive processes before absorption such that they end up being converted into body fat. It is, however, worth to note that, as with other oils and indeed foods, MCT oils should be consumed in moderation.
