NutraBio MCT Powder is designed to deliver a high-quality, calorie-dense source of medium chain triglycerides to support the energy demands of athletes or those following a ketogenic diet. MCTs may also be beneficial for weight/fat loss as they appear to play a role in increasing metabolic rate and the speed at which fats are broken down to release fatty acids into the bloodstream for energy use.

What are Medium Chain Triglycerides?Medium chain triglycerides are a type of fatty acid that are found naturally in foods like coconut oil, palm oil, and some dairy products. Because MCTs are shorter in length than long-chain fatty acids (i.e. vegetable oils) and water-soluble, they are metabolized differently in the body. Once absorbed into the bloodstream, MCTs bypass the digestion process of longer chain fatty acids and go directly to the liver where they are rapidly broken down and thus, provide a quick source of energy and are less likely to be stored in fat cells. This is why it is often said MCTs act more like a carbohydrate than a fat. Benefits of NutraBio MCT Powder For Weight/Fat Loss:Multiple studies suggest that substituting MCTs for other fats in a healthy diet may support healthy weight and body composition when combined with exercise. This is due to MCTs: Lower energy density: MCTs contain 8.4 calories per
