MCT oil – medium-chain fatty acids
MCT oil, or medium-chain triglycerides, are saturated fats consisting of fatty acids containing from 6 to 10 (and according to some sources up to 12) carbon atoms.

MCT oil is most often obtained from coconut oil, as well as palm oil or milk fat. Although it is a saturated fat, it differs from other fatty acids in this group due to, among other things, its different absorption process – MCT oil is absorbed by intestinal epithelial cells and enters the liver via the portal vein, which means the compound reaches the bloodstream from the digestive system at a rate similar to glucose. In addition, its digestion does not require lipase or bile, which favors faster absorption.

MCT oil contains fatty acids such as six-carbon caproic acid, eight-carbon caprylic acid, and ten-carbon capric acid. It is often used as a component in vitamin dietary supplements – as a fat source, MCT oil supports the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Moreover, it is an energy source characterized by neutral taste and smell, making it popular among people on a ketogenic diet, e.g., as a component of bulletproof coffee. MCT oil is also used in cosmetics as an ingredient in skin and hair care products.
