This is because they quickly convert into ketones which pass through the blood brain barrier and may boost focus, alertness, cognition and BDNF (Brain Derived Neurotropic Factor).\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMCT OIL MAY HELP WITH:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBOOSTING BRAIN FUNCTION\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSUPPORTING ENERGY METABOLISM\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMCT’s have been used for many decades as a tool to support fat metabolism. One of the mechanisms of action may be the ability for MCT to boost the satiation hormones PYY and Leptin.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePYY (Peptide YY) is released from the small intestines and activates receptors in your brain to tell you enough food has been consumed. It also helps to slow the movement of food through the digestive tract. This helps with more complete digestion and satiation.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLeptin is released from fat cells to tell your brain your cells have enough calories and to stop eating. The problem is continual overeating leads to leptin resistance and the brain no longer responds.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHowever, Ketones (made from MCT) help improve leptin sensitivity, which may result in greater hunger control and potential calorie reduction.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirections\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsume 2.5-10g of MCT Oil powder with food, added to shakes, smoothies or coffee for an extra boost and added creaminess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/7981\/5380\/files\/Nutrition_Panel_-_MCT_Powder.jpg?v=1643765111\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SWITCH NUTRITION","offers":[{"title":"250G","offer_id":47761560404221,"sku":"744109248252","price":42.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9655\/3725\/files\/mct-oil.png?v=1782439245","url":"https:\/\/rapid-nutrition.com\/products\/switch-nutrition-mct-oil-powder","provider":"Rapid Nutrition","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
