The benefits of coconut oil and MCT

Coconut oil contains exceptionally valuable fats - over 90% of coconut fat is saturated fatty acids; Fatty acids contained in coconut butter differ from others due to the high MCT (Medium-chain triglycerides). Coconut oil is a true well of saturated fatty acids: lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid.

Unlike other fatty acids, MCT digestion does not require the presence of bile acids - this means that these fats are absorbed by the human body in the middle of the digestive tract (the upper part of the small intestine).

The presence of MCT is particularly important in athletes' diets; MCTs contribute to strength and endurance and increase muscle mass. With MCT in the diet, carbohydrate reserves are protected in the body and thus you protect the muscle proteins from burning (catabolism) - so you lose fat instead of muscle during the reduction.


Lauric acid

Up to about 50% of coconut oil is lauric acid converted into the human body into monolaurin, which is essential for enhancing the immune system by fighting the microorganisms while simultaneously influencing the natural microflora of the bacteria. Coconut oil contains about 50% lauric acid, which in similar proportions is in the milk of the mother.
