MCT oil
Ketogenic diet staple
MCT oil is a dietary supplement made from medium-chain triglycerides—fats with shorter molecular chains than most dietary fats.
Extracted from coconut or palm kernel oil, it's marketed for quick energy, weight management, and cognitive benefits.
Popular in ketogenic diets, it's often added to coffee or smoothies: I put MCT oil in my morning coffee.
