The dietary supplement Organic MCT Oil Pure C8 is an organic MCT oil derived from coconuts. It contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) only. Particularly digestible, these fatty acids are not stored in the body’s fat reserves.
What advantages are offered by MCTs?
MCTs are easier to absorb than the long-chain triglycerides present in our normal diet. The latter are first stored in the body’s adipose tissue before being gradually used for energy.
In contrast, MCTs release shorter chain fatty acids into the body, comprising just 6 to 12 carbons. Their small size enables them to enter the bloodstream almost directly, without having to be broken down by the pancreas or gallbladder. They are quickly transported to the liver, where they are used as an immediate source of energy rather than being stored in fat tissues.
Why the choice of just C8 caprylic acid?
The MCTs in Organic MCT Oil Pure C8 are not composed of just any fatty acid. We have selected the maximum possible content in C8 caprylic acid. Also known as octanoic acid, this straight-chain saturated fatty acid is composed of 8 carbon atoms.
C8 caprylic acid was first identified in goat’s milk, and thus its name comes from the Latin for goat, capra . It is also found to a lesser degree in breast milk and palm oil. The caprylic acid in Organic MCT Oil Pure C8 comes entirely from coconuts. Note that while there is only 5% C8 caprylic acid in standard coconut oil, Organic MCT Oil Pure C8 contains at least 98%, higher even than most MCT oils on the market.
We have deliberately chosen C8rather than C6 (caproic acid can cause stomach aches), C10 (capric acid is recognised as being less effective than C8) or C12 (lauric acid is the main constituent of standard coconut oils). In addition, this supplement is free from any added excipients.

Très bon produit. Qualité- prix satisfaisant. Juste une suggestion, que le contenant ne soit pas en verre.

Rempli son rôle, bon goût légèrement différent de l'huile de coco classique. Cette huile est complètement liquide à température ambiante.

Para tenerla cabeza un poco mejor funcionando, me funciona. Lo tomo en el café, con mantequilla bio, batido, que se llama bulletproof coffee. También lo puedes tomar solo, no tiene sabor.
To keep my mind working a bit better, it works for me. I take it in my coffee, with organic butter, blended, which is called bulletproof coffee. You can also take it on its own, it has no flavor.

Produit tout à fait conforme aux attentes, un embout plus étroit pour mieux maitriser l'écoulement du produit aurait été parfait.
Product completely meets expectations, a narrower nozzle to better control the flow of the product would have been perfect.
