MCT Powder- Is It Good?

[Nan]

Is MCT powder good to take? How about the oil? What does Dr. Peat think of it?
If it is good how much should you take per day?

Thanks

I don't know what RP says but I have looked at most if not all of the brands and they all have junky additives so I personally avoid it. I do use regular MCT oil, for cooking and for carrot salads. RP has cautioned against using too much MCT oil though because it can be harsh on the digestion.

if you have allergies or don't process histamine as well, you might have to take care with it. more than a tsp. or so of it will give me a headache the next day, and you can find some research on this as well. but otherwise it's almost pure saturated fat
