    Product Description

    Description

    Enhance energy and metabolism with NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil, a source of fast-absorbing healthy fats.

    MCT Oil is derived from coconut and palm kernel oils and contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) that are more easily and rapidly digested than other fats. These MCTs are quickly absorbed and metabolized by the liver, encouraging the use of fats for energy rather than storage, which may support healthy weight and body composition when used as part of a healthy diet.

    Questions and Answers about NOW Foods, Sports, MCT Oil

    Have a Question?

    Ask a Question

    • Is it okay to take NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil every day?

      Daily use of NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil is generally considered safe for most healthy individuals when consumed as directed, as MCTs are fats that are easily digested and metabolized by the body. However, it's important to start with small amounts and gradually increase intake to assess your individual tolerance, as some people may experience digestive discomfort when first introducing MCT oil into their diet.

    • What does NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil do to your body?

      NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil provides a readily available source of energy for the body, as MCTs are quickly absorbed and metabolized in the liver where they can be rapidly converted into ketones. This quick conversion to energy can potentially lead to increased mental clarity, improved athletic performance, and support for ketogenic diets, while also potentially aiding in weight management by promoting feelings of fullness and supporting fat metabolism.

    • Who should not take MCT oil?

      Individuals with liver problems or difficulties metabolizing medium-chain triglycerides should exercise caution with MCT oil. Those with diabetes should monitor their blood sugar levels closely when using MCT oil. People prone to digestive issues might also need to introduce MCT oil gradually, as it can cause gastrointestinal discomfort in some individuals.

    • What are the side effects of NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil?

      Common side effects of MCT oil can include digestive discomfort, such as diarrhea, nausea, or stomach cramps, especially when first starting use or with high doses. Some people may experience a temporary increase in hunger or changes in energy levels. It's important to start with a small dose and gradually increase to assess tolerance.

    • Can NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil cause kidney problems?

      NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil, when used as directed, is not typically associated with kidney problems. MCTs are processed differently in the body compared to other fats and are primarily metabolized in the liver. However, individuals with pre-existing kidney conditions should exercise caution and consult with a healthcare provider before using any new supplements.

    • What happens if I take NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil on an empty stomach?

      Taking NOW Foods Sports MCT Oil on an empty stomach can lead to rapid absorption and potentially provide a quick source of energy. However, some individuals might experience digestive discomfort or nausea when consuming MCT oil without food. It's often recommended to start with small amounts and gradually increase, possibly taking it with or after food to minimize potential side effects.
