The same study also stated thatMCT oil has been shown to significantly reduce body weight and waist circumference. Also, medium-chain triglycerides have about 10 percent fewer calories than long-chain triglycerides (LCTs), which are found in foods such as olive oil, nuts and avocados. As per the study on 'Gut Microbiota and Metabolic Health' published in the National Institute of Health,MCT oil can help optimise the growth of good bacteria and support the gut lining, which can also expedite the weight loss process.

MCT oil can also help reduce lactate build-up in athletes while performing different exercises. Taking MCTs just prior to the workout will enable the body to use fat instead of carbs for energy.
