MCT oil is an oil made up of medium chain triglycerides, a type of fat found naturally in coconuts. Ours is made from 100% organic coconuts, double steam distilled using only water, heat and pressure, with no chemical solvents and no palm oil.

Both C8 and C10 are MCTs found in coconuts, and the difference is how quickly the body uses them. C8 is converted fastest, while C10 takes a little longer. Our blend combines both at 60% C8 and 40% C10; our pure C8 oil is over 95% C8.

No. MCT oil has a low smoke point and is not suitable for frying or cooking with heat. Stir it into a drink or add it to food after cooking. For high-heat cooking, our avocado oil, ghee and beef tallow are the right choices.

Choose MCT oil if you want a single-ingredient liquid with more MCT per serving. Choose MCT powder if you travel often or prefer something that mixes into drinks without oil sitting on the surface. Our powder uses organic acacia fibre as the carrier rather than maltodextrin.

A serving is 15ml for the oils or 10g for the powder, once a day. If you are new to MCT, begin with one teaspoon and build up gradually as your body adapts. Taking too much too soon is the usual reason people find it unsettling.
