Short description of MCT oil
MCT oil consists of medium-chain triglycerides, functional fatty acids obtained from coconut fat and palm kernel oil.
In contrast to other fatty acids, MCTs deliver 8.3 kcal/g less calories than other fatty acids. Due to their shorter fatty acid chain length and the associated functional properties, MCTs are very popular with athletes as a source of energy and during diets.
What can I expect from MCT oil?
First and foremost, MCT oil is a dietary supplement, especially if you use it as a substitute for other fats.
MCT oil provides you with plenty of energy for intensive workouts, which you can further increase by adding highly glycemic carbohydrates (Glucofast). However, since these combinations contain a lot of calories, they are not suitable for diets.
The overall effects of the particularly functional MCTs on your individual goals (fat reduction, muscle building) depend very much on your eating habits and the use of supplementary supplements (BCAAs, highly glycemic carbohydrates, other dietary supplements).
So that the functional boost of MCT oil does not fizzle out, you should adjust the quantity of all basic substrates to your individual training or diet goals and supply proteins as constantly as possible throughout the day.
Functionality and mode of action of MCT oil
MCT oil contains so-called medium-chain triglycerides (MCT), a special type of saturated fatty acids, which are found mainly in coconut and palm kernel oil and have outstanding functional properties. Despite the natural occurrence in food, supplementation with MCT oil is recommended in order to obtain really significant amounts of this functional fat and to avoid unwanted accompanying substances of the food, especially other fatty acids.
MCTs differ in structure from other saturated fats, which are generally considered to be less healthy than unsaturated fatty acids and are supposed to make you fat. They are much shorter than other saturated and unsaturated fats. Due to this name-giving structure, they have only 8.3 kcal instead of 9 kcal (like other fatty acids) per gram and are therefore also very interesting for people with fat digestion problems (weak activity of lipase enzymes) and consciously living people as a quickly available source of energy.
Tip for use:
MCT oil should not be used as a substitute for omega-3 fatty acids or CLA and EPA / DHA / GLA, but rather as a supplement. Ideally, athletes with a very low-calorie diet or a "ketogenic" or "anabolic diet" should consume about 15 ml of MCT oil per day in order to benefit as much as possible from the functionality of the fatty acids.
