• MEDIUM CHAIN TRIGLYCERIDE: MCTs are known as "carbo-lipid" for good reasons; they may help increase lean body mass. “Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and fatty acids are efficiently absorbed and metabolized and are therefore used for piglet nutrition.
• SUPPORT WEIGHT MANAGEMENT: Your gut environment is very important when it comes to your weight. MCT may support the gut lining. Medium-chain triglycerides are not carbohydrates. MCTs are important fatty acids that may provide the energy the same way carbohydrates do.
• GOOD ENERGY SOURCE: MCT is easily absorbed and transported throughout the body. It may be used as an instant source of energy or can be converted into ketones, which are used by the muscle to produce energy.
• IMPROVE ABSORPTION: Medium-chain triglycerides help improve the absorption of amino acids, which is good for muscle tissue. Furthermore, MCTs improve the absorption of calcium and magnesium. These minerals are needed for carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism to improve muscle contraction response time.
• HELPS IN METABOLISM: MCTs are digested immediately after ingestion as they are hydrolyzed by the enzyme lipase, which is present in the saliva. The energy released by the digestion and metabolism of MCTs is converted in the body into heat by a process called thermogenesis. When the body converts energy into heat, metabolism increases.
