BERGABEST MCT Oil is a medium chain triglyceride of fractionated
vegetable fatty acids, mainly caprylic and capric acid.
It is colourless, neutral in odour and taste, and has
a very low viscosity. BERGABEST MCT Oil is declared in labelling as a “vegetable
oil”.
BERGABEST MCT Oil is especially valuable from the nutritional
point of view: it is taken up directly by the bloodstream
and transported to the liver. Because of this it is converted
into energy immediately and not stored as depot fat like
the long-chain triglycerides. MCT Oil is digested and
absorbed indepently of auxiliary substances such as bile
acids.
MCT Oil does not raise the lipid or cholesterol levels
in the blood. It promotes the uptake of proteins or amino
acids and various minerals such as magnesium and calcium.
