Let's dive a little deeper...

Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are fats seen in foods like coconut or palm kernel oil. They’re metabolized differently than the long-chain triglycerides (LCT) seen in most other foods.

MCT oil contains a lot of these fats, and supplements with MTC are argued to carry many health benefits. MCT assists your body in making ketones, an energy source for your brain. Many believe that consuming it will sharpen your mind and improve brain function.

MCT is also known for its ability to help relieve and treat skin infections. The lauric acid in MCT functions as an antimicrobial, breaking down bacteria and virus walls to annihilate them.
