Can swapping your cooking oil really help you lose belly fat? Today we explore the unique properties of MCT oil and why it is superior to coconut oil for weight loss. We break down the evidence behind “diet-induced thermogenesis,” explaining how MCTs rev up your metabolism to burn more calories just by digesting them.
Listeners will discover why MCTs are called a “super fuel” that prevents fat accumulation by converting directly into energy and ketones. We discuss the specific findings that even a low dose of 2 grams per day can increase fat oxidation during low-intensity daily activities for those with a higher BMI. Whether you are looking to suppress hunger, improve insulin sensitivity, or shrink your waist circumference, this episode provides the protocol for incorporating MCTs into your diet safely.
Key Takeaways:
• Not All Fats Are Created Equal: Why MCTs (specifically Caprylic and Capric acids) are metabolized like carbohydrates but without the insulin spike.
• Appetite Control: How MCTs suppress ghrelin (the hunger hormone) and boost fullness signals.
• Safety First: How to avoid the “disaster pants” side effect by keeping daily intake under 30 grams.We recommend Keppi
