Product description

Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are fats that are naturally found in coconut and palm kernel oils. They?re more easily and rapidly digested than other types of fats. MCTs are readily absorbed from the GI tract and are metabolized very quickly by the liver, where they are reported to encourage the use of fat for energy rather than for storage.* Numerous studies suggest that substituting MCT oil for other fats in a healthy diet may therefore help to support healthy weight and body composition.*

Question:	How did this product go from 100 calories per tablespoon to
Answer:	This is a response I received from our NOW Representative: "The short answer is the formula and product hasn’t changed, the long answer... Our label changed. Typical fat is 9 cal/gram.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the length of the chain? C8, C10, or C
Answer:	The most effective MCT for those with health issues is C-8, caprylic acid, and it makes up just 50% of this oil. Although 100% of this oil is MCT, only 80% is of the better, shorter-chain fatty acids. Until this was clearly stated on its new label this month, we had thought 98% of this product was either C-8 or C-10, with 95% or more being C-8. This may explain why neither of us has noticed any improvement in memory function. We started adding tablespoons of this oil to our diet about 3years ago (2016). No percentages of MCTs were listed on the label at that time, so we called NOW and were given verbal assurances that this MCT oil contained the above-noted very high amount of C-8. Maybe, it did back then. Not sure, but we didn't see any improvement after taking several tablespoons daily for 6 months or more. We cut back, finally, having losing faith that it would help with brain function. I've just been using it ever since in our smoothies and in place of EV olive oil in salad dressings, etc. For anyone interested in seeing labels, I'm attaching a pic that shows the old label side by side with the new label (on left). I'm glad they now are being totally honest about the quality of the MCTs in their Pure MCT Oil. Consumer Labs just published it's report on MCT oil. This product is really more comparable to the

Question:	I'd like to hear from someone who has used this product for a couple years. What do you think the over all health effects have been
Answer:	Eileen: After having two major cancer surgeries, one removing 1/3 of my colon and the other (Whipple surgery for pancreatic cancer), I have a problem with mal-absorption and out of control weight loss. MCT oil was suggested to me by my oncologist and also my nutritionist and after using it for several months I have found it to be easier to digest than other oils. If purchased through a pharmacy, the 32 oz. size costs over $90, so it is a great bargain as purchased through Amazon.Jay Davidson
Question:	How is this different than slurping down some coconut oil
Answer:	I would just add that MCT is a by-product of processed coconut oil, it is not found anywhere in nature by itself. You do not get any of the Lauric Acid with a liquid coconut oil. Lauric is very beneficial and without it you are missing much. Why not just stick to regular solid coconut oil and mix it with something over 75 degrees F.

Answer:	The first three ordered since September 2019 were all glass bottles, but the latest (March 2020) is in a plastic bottle. This should have been disclosed in description, but I do not recall reading of the change.
Question:	why choose the regular formula over the sports formula
Answer:	From the Now Sports supplement Facts - MCT Oil (Medium-Chain Triglycerides) (from coconut/palm kernel oil) [50% Caprylic Acid (C8) and 30% Capric Acid (C10)]
Question:	The Capric Acid is C10 in this While it's 15g in Brain Octane. Does this make a difference
Answer:	There is no C10 in Brain Octane... it is 100% C8 and a far superior product. NOW MCT is more like Bulletproof XCT that is C8 & C10, except XCT is distilled another time to make it 100% whereas most other MCT sold on the market also contain C17 which can be responsible for GI distress if you take too much

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this product pure c8 or is c10 lauric acid used as well
Answer:	This product is C8 and C10 without the Lauric acid/c12.
Question:	Hi - I'm using the MCT liquid now, how do the capsuls compare for same dose? (number of capsuls
Answer:	the serving is 3 capsules, which has only 25 calories as compared to 100 calories in a TBSP - which is another advantage to the capsules, if you that's a concern for you.I'm still using both - capsules when I'm in a hurry and don't start my day with anything I can blend the oil into.
Question:	What type of gelatin is used
Answer:	It's bovine gelatin.
Question:	How long for the effects to kick in after taking a gel
Answer:	I use it for weight loss. I would say 4 weeks. This is not a cure all or feel it working in an hour or less. It does not work that way. You also have to do the work in order to drop the weight. It is effective on hard to reach places like the tummy. Don't waste your money if you don't have your eating under control.

User questions & answers

Question:	does it taste like coconut oil, i cant stand the smell of regular coconut oil or the taste
Answer:	I wouldnt say that it tastes like coconut oil but its got a flavor. This is the only MCT oil that ive been able to pick out a taste in my coffee.
Question:	Safety instructions say not to use styrofoam. On travel days, if I add to my smoothie, is styrofoam container ok then
Answer:	Brilliant idea, take a supplement for your health, make sure it's organic, and then put it in a toxic container. Syrofoam is unethical and should be illegal. It can't be recycled and it's horrible for the environment. Get a safer disposal cup, or better yet reusable. Or just swallow the capsules and then dri k the smoothie. https://www.1millionwomen.com.au/blog/why-you-should-say-no-styrofoam/
Question:	So I purchased organic coconut oil in the tub.. is there any difference in taking a tablespoon of that versus taking a tablespoon of this
Answer:	It depends on why you use coconut oil in the first place. MCT oil is for supplying your body with ketones to burn more fat. Regular coconut oil has all 4 MCTs and is saturated fat. That said, not all MCTs are the same. Brain Octane oil gives you four times more ketone energy than coconut oil.[7] That means you get more brain-powering, fat-burning power than you would with generic MCT oil. Here’s a closer look at what that means: C8 (caprylic acid): This is Brain Octane oil, and it’s the all-around best MCT for ketogenic energy. It produces more ketones than coconut oil, which means more ketone benefits like amplified energy, fat loss and metabolic burn. C10 (capric acid): Supports energy, fat burning and metabolism, but doesn’t produce as many ketones as C8 does. XCT oil is a blend of C8 and C10. C12 (lauric acid): AKA what you’ll mostly find in coconut oil.[8] Your body doesn’t treat C12 like an MCT, and it doesn’t produce as many ketones. Bottom line: C8 and C10 are the best types of MCTs overall, whether you follow the keto diet or just want more energy. Bulletproof only uses C8 and C10 MCT oils. That matters.
Question:	Has anyone tried both Bulletproof's Brain Octane oil and this product? if so, how do you think one compares to the other
Answer:	I've tried three brands: Bulletproof, Sport Research and Organic Diet. I did like Sport Research: I had used it for 18 months before my uncle advised me to try Organic Diet and I did. I liked the idea to add hemp oil to MCT-oil, as it decreases the stress level and helps me to get rid of diet anxiety. So I think Organic Diet is 5/5, Bulletproof and Sport Research are both 4/5. But I think Sport Research is a bit more tasty and less smelly.
