I was searching on the net and found this comment by Chris Masterjohn:
"Gastrointestinal upset was the most common side-effect of the
MCT-inclusive ketogenic diets that were used back in the day as
extremely effective treatments for seizures. I don't know why -- they
are absorbed directly, unlike the long-chain fats, and maybe the
portal vein can only handle so much fat before getting clogged up?
All the long-chain fats are absorbed through the lymphatic system
instead of going straight to the liver via the blood."
Can this seizure studies be found, why is it that coconut oil causes digestive problems,It seems I am not alone and I also see people complaining about it all the time? No other oil makes people complain so much, none.
