@@a.hammer5598 , I still have 40 lbs. to go. Took about a year to loose the 80 lbs. I had a small health scare and tests showed I had fatty liver. Recent tests and labs as well show my fatty liver is gone.

Can I take MCT OIL, Virgin Coconut oil n fat soluble vitamin like Alpha Lipoic Acid...MCT oil gave me lots of energy during my workout but will it b ok to continue taking it considering iam diagnosed with Fatty Liver?
I suffered for 8 years from inflammation in the form of full body eczema with no help from conventional doctors. I followed a few of your recommendations and I’m now eczema free for almost a year as well as dripped body fat. Back to the gym again I’m gaining muscle mass. So, your research & videos are greatly appreciated
Hello Bryan, would you please tell us what you did to get rid of the eczema, thanks
Thank you so much for talking about this Thomas...this is a topic i need to listen to and exercise in my diet. Very grateful.
You do not stop surprising me, you're a true Angel. You're the guy from internet whom is smarter then doctors who instead of practice their profession, they are eating DUNG
Great info, thanks Thomas.
Your doing good work, your audience needs ideas not absolutes.too many on the web are saying you cannot eat any carbs they will kill you . Moderation as always is key.
Keto turned my fatty liver in to a healthy liver. Thank you for your mentorship Thomas.
Thank you so much for your helpful information! You are doing a great service with your knowledge and understanding, Ph.D or not!
I can tell you one thing: having MCT oil right after dinner *_IS_* jumpstarting therapeutic ketosis for me. I'm doing this having discovered the therapeutic effect of ketosis on my degenerative disc disease while beating diabetes. Since I have plenty of extra fat, I'm breaking my daily fast with lean meat and beginning it with MCT oil. Because that's not enough for me to be in therapeutic ketosis all by itself, I'm also fasting two full days a week and eating high protein. It seems to be working for me.
I'm believing more and more we can cure ourselves through eating the right stuff. Do you mind me asking what approach you take on the grocery shopping. In short 75% protein for me 25 % veges. Still might be to much carbs.
@@jeffmoore2351 I eat meat (ruminants, pork, fowl, seafood) to get enough protein, and add a few ounces of cruciferous vegetables, and occasionally a rice or noodle substitute from kelp or shirataki, or some such. Almost all of my vegetables are the frozen variety, typically from Costco. I like to cook my meats sous vide most of the time, except seafood, for the most part. I typically get my meats on sale and freeze them.
I season it with onion, garlic, sea salt, peppercorn medley and spicy chiles, all dehydrated and ground freshly. I add butter and extra virgin olive oil and/or cook with it, and sometimes cook at high temps with avocado oil. That's most of what I eat, besides canned seafood., I guess. I'm generally under 10 net carbs. That stuff has a fair amount of fiber, so I'd say under 50 total, including the fiber, and usually under 25. I don't typically worry about the fiber in the cruciferous. I do keep the sugars down, though (it's gonna be over half fructose.)
@@miguelmejia4656 ORLY? Come back when you get a clue. Bring punctuation and capitalization when you do.
PS: What TF do you think I meant by the following? "I don't typically worry about the fiber in the cruciferous. _I do keep the sugars down, though (it's gonna be over half fructose.)_ "
Hint: It's a nod to how much fructose vegetables have, and how imperative is is not to overeat them.
I've been struggling with degenerative disc disease for ten years now. It's a complete struggle to even get a good workout in without taking a chance of further injury nowadays. Since changing your diet on a scale of 1to10 how would you rate your pain from before your change and now? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for this information. I have a non alcohol fatty liver. This is very helpful!
Love your videos. Thank you
Thank you Thomas! This video was right on time.😅 I’ve been reduced to eating veggies and amino acids bc of my NAFL thinking that MCT or more fat would be hard on my liver. You are greatly appreciated..
Excellent break down-thank you!
Tom, you read more research in a week than my wife's doctor has during his whole career. Enough said.
Great video, thanks!
I really appreciate you!
Thomassssss firstly your amazing- secondly, will you consider a video of ‘essential’ home gym equipment you’d recommend? Your amazing!
YES!! PLEASE!!! Basics, for 65 and older. I have a rebounder but need weight lifting. Which is most $$and useful., one that is really efficient
Don’t kid yourself. You’re probably smarter than 80% of the doctors out there. Nothing like being sick and have to visit your 300lb doctor
Find a different doctor if it bothers you. If you've been watching, obesity is not a character flaw, so hypocrisy is a non-starter. My doctor is 4'10" and weighs what looks to me like 24lbs. She terrifies me, so I make sure my labs are good when she comes into the room. I've known her for many years, and I'd rather see her smile at me any day, than see her upset and sad that we didn't perform well as a team. Being unhealthy is hard. Consistently eating right, and getting daily exercise is also hard - choose your hard.
@@toddfeltman3748 why would you go to a doctor who can't even figure out how to keep his own self healthy??
I take 15ml MCT in my morning coffee ☕ to work. And at 15:00 i eat. 🍝 Lost a lot of weight and feeling super. So as always sweetie you are my awsome mentor for life. 😚
Hello, I’m new to M CT oil and I have a stubborn 15 pounds that will not come off with anything and I’ve heard about inflammation and liver fat keeping my weight on so I have a question for you. Should I take it in the morning with my coffee or wait till the afternoon because I do eat a pretty substantial amount of food for dinner because my husband gets off work and he’s a big eater for dinner so would it help my fat burning all day and through dinner or should I take the MTC oil a couple hours before I eat dinner. Insane this I’m not a big junk food eater. He just likes his big meals when he gets home from work and I totally understand because I work also and I’m hungry at the end of the day Thank you so much for replying.
Thank you Thomas
Thank you!!
amazing content
I have just that situation of high triglycerides and high glucose, I have been on keto for about 2 years. The doctor is mystified, as I eat no sugar other than what is in fruit, which I limit. Thanks for this tip, I will up my mct oil.
I know this will be disappointing, but fruit is most likely what is keeping your labs from improving. Fruits have fructose and carbs, so as long as you are consuming them your body will still use them ( store them) first. Consuming higher fat foods while still consuming sugar in any form, will keep your glucose high (body releases insulin to deal with carbs) and triglycerides (fat circulating in your blood instead of burning it as energy) will stay high. Another thing that trips people up trying to do keto is eating packaged foods labelled "keto". Almost all of them promote the net carbs as super low, but when you look at total carbs, it is usually much higher.
I hope this helps. Have a blessed day. 😊
I am looking for a recommendation for a good brand to purchase. Can MCT oil come in a capsule or is it just an oil or powder. I have recently changed my diet cutting sugar and reducing carbs. These videos are great and have helped a lot.
I appreciate any recommendation since I don’t want to take a low quality supplement.
Off topic question, Thomas, but I'm currently doing Keto and I'm planning a Grand Canyon "Rim to Rim" hike in a couple of weeks. The hike is a total of 24 to 27 miles, depending and is very strenuous. My question is, would you advise going off of keto for the day or the day prior in order to maximize my available energy?
I’ve been breaking my fast with coconut oil for years when I first started I was 222 i lost 40 pounds of fat the first 4 months and I’ve managed to kept it off I’m 185 solid muscle now trying to bulk up to 190 before the year is over
@@vanamarkarian straight out the jar I usually take a tablespoon or 2 a day
Big General, is breaking your fast with coconut oil the only change, or have you also been on keto?
You went past that study so fast I had to go back and freeze the frame. The actual stated goal of the study "...was to establish the effects of MCT on appetite and food intake and determine whether differences were due to differences in hormone concentrations." They didn't say anything about fatty liver.
Thanks for the research topics!
Bought some MCT oil and will be testing it for the next 30 days to see what happens!
Months later, lost 30 pounds in 2 months,, mix it with whey protein as last meal before a 16 hour fast

Hello brother, we really need subtitles in Spanish, I recommend many people to follow you but not all of us know fluent English and it costs us a lot, plus you will have Latin attention, I await your response. For me you are the best
You have a greater knowledge base than a doctor or PhD. Vastly greater knowledge base. This is not hyperbole. Formal medical education was not canonized for most of the history of this country. Much of the information taught is dated, incorrect and corrupted by the influence of pharma.
thank u
As a PhD student in the biomedical field, I honestly believe that you should go get your Dr. Thomas degree.
Where DO you get your knowledge of nutrition and bio chemistry? You sound pretty knowledgeable. Might be able to get that Phd….
Just brilliant🧠🤯
Found out I have diabetes 4 months ago, l'm 41yrs old, went to the VA last week to get blood work done and my triglycerides came back at 5200 and blood sugar was over 400! The medication they prescribed to me ain't working, my wife who's a nurse thinks I have a fatty liver, but the doctors want me to keep trying these meds and others before they'll do anything else❗ Don't have any other choice, but to keep pushing the VA doctors or for them to refer me to someone who knows what they're doing ❗❗❗❗ Don't know how much more I have to change my diet! Can't go full blast into exercising because of injuries I sustained in service. L5-S1 fusion, surgery for right shoulder dislocation, slipped disc injury between shoulder blades, yet still lightly work out. 5' 6 and weight 189, what should be my ideal weight and eat well and healthy. This just started for me this year and last year 2020 had blood work done many times and had nothing wrong, now this ⁉️
The problem is when I use coconut oil or MCT oil or MCT, I get the worst muscle spasms all over my body I've had to stop using it intermittent fasting works but I just can't take it.
As a Cell Biology/Biochem grad, I can honestly say you know like 100X more then most fitness trainers. its actually kind of upsetting how little most fitness guru's understand the cellular pathways that most macros take and how they are utilized by the body.
Glad I am putting mct oil in my bulletproof coffee
Im doing omad and IM fasting...I don't want to break my fast in the morning I eat between 5pm 6pm is it ok to take after i eat ? I then walk 30mins..
If you don't know how to use MCT oil, try making a homemade mayonnaise with it. It's yummy. 🍦
How much material oil should you consume a day?
Sounds like I should keep up the use of MCT powder in my first morning coffee every day, brother…
Add a couple drops to my coffee every morning
Zero out sugar and read labels 🏷 is worth time and effort
I'm curious whether they could see similar effects from simply increasing fat in the diet or what would happen if they used EV Olive oil or other monounsaturated fats. Are you aware of any studies using other fats like this? Thanks for your great video. I appreciate the ideas.
Me too! Wondering the same thing. Why not just a Carnivore/Ketovore or meat based diet where you are eating more fatty meats rather than lean meats?
@@sherrylivering4149 fatty meats even free range, contain artery clogging LDL,s. (low density lipo~Fat/protein)., HDL,s from vitgin olive oil Fish such as salmon, avocados, nuts etc. is the way to go.
You really helped me with this. I have major issues with my portal vein and could never understand why mct doesn't work as well for me....now I understand
Thank you!
So if your portal vein is messed up coconut oil/mct oil doesn’t work?
Pro tip:
Add timestamped chapters to the description, including a "too technical didn't listen" chapter with a derped-down synopsis with the key takeaway(s)
No, sick of morons going into peoples channels giving people everything in key points in the comments so people avoid a video that the content creator put effort into and also its educational, if you dont care about all the science then that means you dont really show excitement or love in the topic/fitness, you'll get bored and stop your healthy journey because you're looking for shortcuts like everyone else
Respectfully disagree. The science is what differentiates this channel from lesser ones catering to the short attention span crowd. It's a 7:33 video.
So could mct oil if you start taking it for say a month b4 starting keto help avoid the keto flu?
It does help when starting keto. Just start out slow with it because it will cause diarrhea QUICKLY if you take too much. I used it my first 2 months and experienced the mental clarity almost immediately. I stopped taking it for a few months and still was losing weight, but feel I might need to add it back in.
Im obese and using mct oil for keytones and weight loss and augar control, I may already have fatty liver. I get worried with all the stuff I read about negative effects mct oil couod have on the liver.
How much MCT oil do u need a day. Thank you for making time to do this video.🙏🏿
I have the same question. Are there in recommendations as to much one should take a day?
Start with 1 Tablespoon per day in coffee or smoothie to test your tolerance. Too much leads to a case of "Disaster Pants". It does not take a lot to get the desired effect.
So, coconut oil for breakfast? And then wait 1-2 hours before eating something else?
I can't do mct oil it makes hurl. Tried keto and can't do it makes me sick. I stay low carb and eat according to my blood type now wirks much better. Since i have very rare blood type.
Dude how’d you get your neck all ripped ?!?! I need to get my neck game on!!
What is the best time to consume them when I.F.?
What do you Think about guarana tee?
Holy crap maybe that's why mine is lower now it was like really high like really really high now it's where it's supposed to be
Wouldn't coconut oil do the same? It's not as concentrated with MTC, but seems like it would also work, and there are other good elements to it.
yes absolutely and even mixing coconut oil with mct (sounds dumb, but actually) supposedly can put u deeper into ketosis because lauric acid potentiates the caprylic acid. I'm pretty sure Thomas has touched on that before
Cannot find the link he mentioned for Thrive Market. Looking for it so I could purchase some MCT oil
If you look in the area just below the video on the right hand side there is a lil arrow click that and his notes and links show up. Some people call it the “ show me” arrow.
would make a good salad dressing along with melted butter
Loved the video. I can only imagine how much negative feedback you've received, by how much you are apologizing for not having a PHD.
I can expect fat on liver can be removed when converting C8 to ketones
Everything is low except for my cholesterol and LDL how the heck do I lower these fast
I am pretty sure Thomas has videos on this, but there are also other channels who discuss the reasons for higher total and LDL on keto. Your HDL and triglycerides are more indicative of heart health and there is a formula to figure your hd risk. Some additional channels you might find helpful are Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Eric Westman, Dr. Annette Bosworth, Dr. Eric Berg, 2Fit Docs.
Is anyone here who has experience with MCT oil, protein and especially carbs at the same meal? I know it’s not magical or „better“ than other oils but I have problems with fat digestion because of gallbladder issues. I want to know if it’s „normal“ to eat MCT oil with rice for example or is it necessary to have MCT oil by itself like the keto guys? Thank you very much for your help guys.
I use 1-2 scoops of HVMN MCT oil in my coffee in the morning with powdered collagen peptides scoop & a little stevia.
The MCT (medium chain) absorbs differently than other fats, so it should not upset the gallbladder or lack of having one. BUT, start slow until your body is used to it. Initially it can stimulate the GI tract & have you running, but once you’re used to it all is fine. Hope this helps.
As a cyclist, I’ve been consuming a protein shake with collagen, creatinine and MCT oil and/or MCT powder before my rides. BUT! I’ve been getting stomach distress and it manifests itself as a need for “porcelain” if you get my drift…. Really puts a cramp on my club rides as I have to find a facility and that’s not always possible. Anyone else experience this? Recommendations on how to avoid it? I seem to be able to manifest more wattage output when I do use MCT, but I’m really tired of needing to find a bathroom when I’m riding.
@@marybelyea8991 Yes, as mentioned, I do use powder…. Same result. I will be trying to get MCT oils that use only C8. C10 is what can cause the distress from what I’ve read.
@@missmarielyne6697 Hmmmm. 🤔. Perhaps. I still believe my output is better if I stay away from the carbs and go with the protein. I'll try less MCT to try and cut the stomach distress.
MCT oil gives me wicked heartburn. No way around it. Tried small amounts. Doesn’t matter
Well,,,when you say it like that !
Holy shit with the technicalities. The body is stupid complex.
What about if you are on keto and got a fatty liver ?? Will MCT oil help ??
If you are staying in ketogenesis, your body should be actively burning body fat to produce fuel. Eating MCT oil, helps boost the burn.
The body should first burn the belly fat then it will reverse fatty liver. It is a reversal process of many years of high insulin levels, which first deposits fat in the liver, then around the viscera & then the body.
A mouthful of ghee with a mct oil chaser makes a great breakfast...
Not a doctor….
But should be teaching allopathic doctors!
If I consume 1 to 2 Tablespoon of C8 MCT oil per day on a keto diet will it cause liver disease? Is it safe ?
How do you use MCT oil? Do you cook with it? Do you drink it? How much per day/meal? Ty for your research.
@@mpumelelogumede6557 Don't cook with it. Add it to salads, coffee, tea. It has no taste so you could even take a spoon full. Research how to use it.

I am fat adapted and MCT oil making me gain weight😡
Oil up :)
A lot of the "research" is just guessing about how things work. This is at least as rational as the claim that "calories make you fat" - they don't. Insulin makes you fat. That's a fact. I would like to know how much MCT oil one should take (eat, ingest) to best trigger these results. Is a tablespoon enough? Can you use coconut oil or is that not good enough? Some of these videos get you to the water then you're left to guess what you should do next. It's a lot like going to a Billy Graham Crusade.
How can I fix my fatty liver problem from beer

@@UHaulShorts what’s bulletproof? I just put it my coffee. Sorry. Not sure what you mean
can you cook with mct oils?
Nooooo don't cook with it. Put it in coffee or tea (you have to blend it, otherwise the oil will float around) or salads. You can just take a spoonful and drink it. Start with small amounts like a tea spoon, then two and up to a table spoon or two a day.
would be a waste of the delicate oil cook with, Coconut oil instead,, how about don;t use oils for cooking :)
Can you say that again in English please? So what should I be eating?
