MCT Oil 32 oz by Protocol for Life Balance
MCT Oil has been formulated to provide metabolic support and assist with weight management. It contains Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) which are fats that are metabolized differently than most dietary fats. MCTs require minimal enzymatic breakdown and are quickly absorbed across the wall of the small intestine, going directly to the liver where they can be used for energy production. Unlike carbohydrates, MCTs do not require insulin and do not cause an increase in blood sugar.Studies have shown that consuming MCT Oil in conjunction with a healthy diet can help to maintain a healthy body weight, while preserving lean muscle mass. This makes it a unique product in the marketplace, as it has the potential to address symptoms of weight gain, while providing metabolic support. MCT Oil has been formulated without any artificial ingredients, making it a safe and natural supplement.
