MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) are fats that are metabolized differently than most dietary fats.* Unlike longer chain triglycerides, MCTs require little or no enzymatic breakdown and are easily absorbed across the wall of the small intestine and delivered straight to the liver where they can be used directly for energy production (instead of being stored as fat).* In essence, they act similar to carbohydrates, but without the requirement of insulin and with no effect on blood sugar.* Studies have demonstrated that MCT oil consumption along with a healthy diet can help to maintain a healthy body weight, while sparing lean tissue.* Protocol For Life Balance® Organic MCT Oil is derived exclusively from organic coconut oil. • Derived from Coconut Oil • Weight Management* • Keto Friendly

Caution: Due to MCTs’ ability to induce ketosis, caution should be exercised in patients with diabetes, liver disease, and certain forms of epilepsy. Store in cool, dry and dark place in a tightly sealed container. Store at temperature not exceeding 90oF (32oC). Avoid overheating and exposure to direct sunlight. Freezing point is 23oF (-5 oC). Interaction with Lab Tests: Blood triglyceride levels might be altered by MCT supplementation.
