Nordvital mct oil 500 ml

This 500 ml MCT oil from Nordvital is made from medium-chain fatty acids (MCT) obtained from palm oil. According to the manufacturer, the palm oil comes from sustainable cultivation and is RSPO certified. The body quickly converts medium-chain fatty acids into ketone bodies, which the product description presents as a fast-release source of energy.

The oil consists mainly of caprylic acid and capric acid, which the manufacturer says form the most ketone bodies. It differs in this respect from lauric acid, the main component of coconut oil. The product is aimed at athletes, active people and anyone who wants to support mental alertness and concentration.

It can be taken on its own, drizzled over salads or added to meals, but it is not suitable for frying. The recommended serving is 10 ml at a time, as larger amounts may cause diarrhoea. It is a food supplement and does not replace a balanced, varied diet.
