Enhanced Organic MCT Oil - 32 oz Bottle for Health-Conscious Individuals

Now® Organic MCT Oil is derived exclusively from organic coconut oil, which is a rich source of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). Unlike other types of fats, MCTs are more easily and rapidly digested, readily absorbed from the GI tract, and quickly metabolized by the liver, where they are reported to encourage the use of fat for energy rather than storage. Numerous studies suggest that substituting MCT oil for other fats in a healthy diet may help support healthy weight and body composition.

The organic coconut oil used in NOW® Organic MCT Oil is sustainably sourced to protect the environment and preserve native wildlife habitats. Natural color variations may occur in this product, which is certified organic by QAI and packaged and quality tested in the USA.

Suggested use is 1 tablespoon (15 mL) daily. MCT oil can also be used as a substitute for conventional oils in salad dressings, sauces, or cooking, although it is not recommended for frying due to its low smoke point. To reduce the potential for GI upset, it is advised to take MCT oil with food. Consult a physician if pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children.
