Stopped drinking sugary drinks and started MCT and fasting. Whent from a 42 waist to a 32 waist in 6 months. I have more energy and I can think on the spot. This really does work and I am in better shape now than I was at 25 as a soldier. I am 40 now and feel like I can do pretty much anything ;)
So, I rarely leave comments on anyone page but I love your channel. Now that you and your wife have had a child at home maybe you could do a keto based meal prep or snacks video for busy Moms (or dads)? I have two little ones at home and I’m always looking for fun/healthy snacks that I can enjoy and my toddler can appreciate too! (Not that she’s eating keto...but she likes to eat what I’m eating!) Thanks!
it's true about parkinson. my mum have advanced parkinson diseases, and giving her daily dose of coconut oil actually make my mum have more energy, responded better and have better cognitive function. my mum haven't speaks a single word in 1.5 years after the minor stroke, and suddenly speaking again, even only a few words, not long after started taking coconut oil. i use organic coconut oil
Stephanie, how many tablespoons of coconut oil did you serve your mom everyday? Does she drink with water fter taking coconut oil? Is it before eating or after meals?
Remember whenever humans manufacture things there's a side effect later on....after further research. I'm sticking with 100% unrefined coconut oil. God never makes mistakes.
So God planned for children suffering from inhumane conditions and bone-eating diseases? If your God is real they are a bastard and you shouldn't trust them. I'm normally rather hardy but I do believe I have just been triggered. That escalated quickly from coconut oil.
Thanks for the continuing clear & concise outstanding information! I used IF to lose the 40# in 4 months. I've been stable at my weight for over 6 months. It was easy and effective and i felt the brain boost as my job entails being nimble minded, and it increased my ability. Now it's time to go for another 40# and will be incorporating what you've shared. Would you comment on the MCT Oil vs Powder?
Thank you. I'm glad you explained this, as have other experts in regards to that USA today article. I got an hysterical email from my sister who majored in biology and is a neurosurgery nurse who has qualms with the diet I'm on. my other sister though knows the study that was used to come to those conclusions is flawed and biased.
MCT cant denaturate because it has no 3rd or 2nd order structure. It cant desintegrate on pan as well because it has boiling temperature of 260 celsius. So its safe to cook.
Great that you mention coconut oil is superior for cooking, Thomas - it has a higher smoke point than MCT oil does, which means it will not cause scary things to happen in your frying pan that will set off the smoke detector and ruin your peace. MCT oil is useful because it is temperature stable and it will not turn back into a solid if you add it to a cold drink, so each has its uses, but of the 2 pure coconut oil is better for you. Unless you are prone to digestive woes from either of them, then they are not.
👍Dr. Berg talked about it but wow, you really explained it!! Great info. I appreciate you & your videos. Yes, I can read up on all of this stuff myself but I don’t always understand what I read & I can’t multitask while reading. I can listen to / watch your videos & multitask which helps me tremendously. Thank you. 🤗💞🤗
coconut oil frequently cause gastrointestinal bloating. Does MCT cause it too? I really appreciate your videos. You have influenced more people than you can imagine
interesting points ,if anyone else is searching for what is the health benefits of coconut oil try Corbandy Coconut Crusher (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my colleague got amazing results with it.
I think like most supplemental kind of things that depends on the person. I mean I take probiotics regularly and some people can't. Another thing that people don't account for is the fact that a lot of people don't have any idea how to diagnose themselves. They don't pay attention to their bodies and they mistake one thing for another. I don't feel any bloating from any of this stuff in fact when I do these kind of things these oils on a regular basis my gut feels more pliable if that makes any sense I don't feel as bloated or as heavy I guess. I mean I've never taken more than anyone has said to take, a tablespoon or two a day so I don't know what would happen if you overdid it but yeah just my opinion.
There are a few components to remedies . One place I discovered that successfully combines these is the Covert Health Scheme (check it out on google) without a doubt the no.1 guide that I've seen. Check out all the super info .
Completely different thing. Long chain fatty acids with a lot of unsaturation (omega 3 and 6, which can behave as antioxidant and are great for forming cell membranes) Be sure to not fry with avocado oil, its best to keep it cold and use it for salads. as the unsaturated fat might turn into trans fat. Furthermore I would add that avocado oil is not worth the price, at least in europe.
Love all the important info. May I suggest, though, take out the videos of people while you are speaking and replace them with a very helpful written image of the verbal lesson. The verbal + the written will help us learn better. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us.
I use virgin coconut oil for oil pulling every morning, use it for my face, hair and body...sometimes I drink a little sip in the afternoon. I feel great
Good and to the point. This has been your best video from my standpoint. On a different note, I would like more conclusive evidence regarding dring coffee in a fasting state. If it does spike insulin how and for how long? It does promote autography which is huge, But I want my insulin low.
I do intermittent fasting along with a Keto diet. I eat one meal a day around 2:30-3:30 pm then fast the remaining 23 hours,only drinking water with lemon or green tea. I'd like to start adding MCT oil to my diet--If I take it in the morning,will it screw up my fasting? Should I wait & take it with my meal?
I am learning so much about each thing you present, however when you mention things like using coconut oil or honey in apple cider vinegar mix or a Keto coffee "first thing in the morning" I get confused on how to incorporate those with Intermittent fasting. I am currently fasting 16-20 hours per day 5-6 days per week (not eating breakfast or lunch) and want to incorporate ALL your info and methods but sometimes cannot reconcile it all while intermittent fasting. I would like a series of videos that incorporates your most valuable research methods and how to incorporate them WHILE intermittent fasting.
Ditto Same quandary From what I gather, we need to synthesize information from all the various videos that he puts out, take notes, distill, and then incorporate into a personal plan.
Great videos you have online. An abundant and plethora of information. I'm an avid user of Coconut Oil, but I'll also will be purchasing MCT. Is there a name brand that you're currently using? Thanks. ;-)
My problem with MCT oil is that you’re going against NATURE when you strip the Lauric acid out. Most ALL plant matter works best in synergy with various Phytochemicals thus providing the best benefits. If you 100% believe in NATURE as your guide and NOT corporate America trying to sell you something... Ask yourself, why is there 50% Lauric acid, 6% caprylic and 10% capric acids in coconut oil. Probably because it works BEST that way since NATURE made it that way. It’s nature in its PUREST FORM that cures. You cannot outsmart nature. Do you see cancer, diabetes, heart disease in wild animals that have not been controlled by humans? Do they have the capacity to extract Lauric acid from coconut oil? There are many things science will NEVER be able to figure out, if it could then we would live forever with zero diseases....science is an oxymoron!
Can you recommend a couple of good trustworthy brands for MCT oil. My concern is that price on line varies so much that you wonder what they are putting into some of the bottles. I’m sold on the idea of the product but concerned that there could be some organisations jumping on the band wagon with sub standard oil. Seen and heard some terrible stories of Dangerous cons out there! Your guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Wait, I currently use coconut oil in my coffee, which I drink in the morning. If coconut oil does not exactly help with fat loss, will I then gain weight?
Hi Thomas! I wanted to begin by saying, “Thank You,” for sharing so many pieces and segments of fitness & nutrition knowledge to we, your viewers, and the general public. As an aspiring professional in the same field, learning from educated and successful professionals provides invaluable knowledge, confidence in pursuit for similar industry’s fluency & most importantly dynamic perspective. While I am currently researching this, can you provide any insight, methods or ‘steps’ to take for digestive maintenance while taking MCT oil/oil powder, Proteins and the like in order to lessen the less attractive by-products of said supplements? To be a little crass, I would hate to have to spend copious amounts of “alone-time” for fear of subjecting company to undesirable smells, etc. Thanks again for all you do. Wishing you and your family safety in the current climate in the California hills.
Hey guys, thanks for the update on the bullet proof coffee. It should help with my changes. By the way, I also add cinnamon. Any advantage to doing that? Thanks again and take care.
Do a video on when 'Keto Diet' or 'intermittent fasting' or other diets are not best. For instance, I'm a dialysis patient, and the chemistry that happens in my body is not the same as a healthy persons therefore I'm not sure which approach is best for me. Any advice would be great, thanks!
You are a bit tangled up, Thomas, regarding the distinction between fatty acids and triglycerides. A triglyceride contains, typically, three fatty acids attached to its glycerol "backbone," making it technically a triester. So, caproic acid is not a triglyceride, it's a fatty acid, but it could be a component of a triglyceride. The three fatty acids in a triglyceride do not have to be the same type and in general they won't be unless a lot of refining or synthetic chemistry is involved (to make Keto8, for example, which is made of "99%" caprylic acid). It's easy to get "triglyceride" and "fatty acid" tangled up. Finally, you might curb your enthusiasm a bit when recommending coconut oil for sauteing, because it has a low smoke point. Avocado oil might be a better choice.
I use mct oil to break my fast and it really works for me from 160lbs to 145lbs for almost 3 weeks and still doing LCIF. Im more energetic and inspired.😂
Hi Thomas, what is the difference between Virgin coconut oil and deodorized coconut oil? I know there is obvious flavor difference, but as far nutrition and benefits go is there a difference?
A friend who would like to try the mct oil in the bulletproof coffee but he is allergic to coconut. Is there an MCT oil out there that would not affect him?
I should have listened to yourvideo sooner I got riped off at the storeC8.0 Caprylic acid 7.3 g / C10.0 Capric Acid 5.0 g, C 12.0 Lauric Acid 0.7 g. Oh well next time I look more carefully at the label. So no lauric acid should be in the product thanks
I suggest you watch this video ua-cam.com/video/iAv-1UHHjeg/v-deo.html It shows that MCT oil does not increase insulin so putting it in your coffee during intermittent fasting is acceptable.
@@aprillittle595 caprilyic acid does not create an insulin or digestive response, so it is safe to use with IF. It can also help the cells utilize glucose without the need for insulin, according to other videos I have watched, which is interesting for those who are battling insulin resistance like myself. Still trying to figure it out for sure, no one really knows exactly if it breaks your fast or not, but you're safest with the shorter chains and caprylic acid seems to be the one that is utilized easiest by the brain and body for energy. Bulletproof Brain Octane is 100% caprylic acid and it makes me feel so good in too many ways to list. Hope this helps, like I said, still navigating it myself.
Sir, its a very helpful video, but I would suggest you to breakdown your language to a more simplified one so that non technically also one can know the most out of it. Good video content though, keep it up.
Thank you for including the transcript of your videos. I have found I enjoy reading all those long word you say with ease. And sometimes I miss what was said so it's nice to read it. Thank you!
Love your channel. Viewer from Malaysia. Keto diet for approximately 3 weeks now. Does drinking coffee increase blood sugar and insulin in the body, kicking us out of ketosis?
Ok. Noted on that. I stopped cold turkey on milk with coffee and now on americano. Here in Malaysia, sugar is normally added to anything especially hot beverages. I was reading something about caffeine triggering glucose production and hence insulin also is produced in the blood. I understand that when insulin is produced, we burn glucose rather than fat. So I just wanted to be careful in trying not to be out of ketosis. Thanks Tae
Thank you! I was curious about whether or not the brain and body composition benefits of MCT oil were true. Always helpful health & nutrition facts from you, Thomas. Thanks again!
So coconut oil show apply ~instant power through the true short-chain molecules and the c-12 molecules can be stored in the liver to be used later as needed?
This is what I know, the saturated fat in extra virgin coconut oil non-refine non GMO organic is ( medium-chain triglycerides) doesn't require bile to break down and read the following: This is real life real story ; I had Gallstones and have 2 friends had gallstones, they took (1 tbsp coconut oil mixed with 8 oz fresh green Apple juice) every morning before any food, their stones gone after 2 month I started May 25th 2020 hopefully mine are gone too in 2 month too, 2 days later, light urine, brown stool , constipation gone, bloated stomach gone, June 14th, no attack since May 25th, every now and then I feel movement in my gallbladder like something move in slow motion could be gas from bowel but no pain, hope it was contraction from gallbladder pushing the stones out. July 21st I got another ultrasound, all gallstones gone. there are few polyps measure up to 2 mm, doctor sent me the report also stated no more follow up needed:) ps* I also took 4 to 6 oz of celery juice to help enlarge the bile duck before the Coconut oil mix.. zero attack since taking this remedy and stones gone in 2 months. use my remedy I can provide you my ultrasound reports before and after used of coconut oil if you have doubt. I'm eating bacon, shrimp, super spicy Korean food, they don't do crap to my gallbladder
Hi Thomas I have purchased mct oil costing £17 Content is c8 =fifty two.3 per cent C10 =forty.two per cent C12=0.nine per cent Will the C12 being a long chain compromise the efficiency of the other two ie interfere with quick ketone production Really hope you can answer as l am waiting to begin my keto life!! Many thanks
I’ve been watching your videos for some time now along with Dr Berg. Though you have much more nutritional science info you share, your videos are hard to follow because the pictures you use while talking are distracting. They pull the mind away from what you’re saying just enough to lose track. So I’m constantly having to back up 20 seconds and catch what it was you said before being distracted by some stupid image or video that is trying too hard to be relevant. For example the picture of gems in this video. Just because you say “gem” doesn’t mean we need to see a 3 sec clip of rotating gems. Please stop. You’ll get more viewers and and followers because your videos will be better to watch rather than just listen to. Hope you take a moment to read and profit from some constructive criticism. Man you’re smart on this stuff! Thanks for your videos!

I was looking for the difference and why. You answered every question I had thank you. The only thing you left out what's the best brand?
MCT oil - fat burning/cognitive effects (morning)
Coconut oil (virgin) - digestive/ immunity (later)
So what's your take on the powered version of MCT? Thanks for your wonderful videos, I love them
What about Avocado oil compared to these two?
Completely different thing. Long chain fatty acids with a lot of unsaturation (omega 3 and 6, which can behave as antioxidant and are great for forming cell membranes) Be sure to not fry with avocado oil, its best to keep it cold and use it for salads. as the unsaturated fat might turn into trans fat.

Still trying to figure it out for sure, no one really knows exactly if it breaks your fast or not, but you're safest with the shorter chains and caprylic acid seems to be the one that is utilized easiest by the brain and body for energy. Bulletproof Brain Octane is 100% caprylic acid and it makes me feel so good in too many ways to list. Hope this helps, like I said, still navigating it myself.
Wow....all this is way over my head. I did read an article about Coconut oil published in the Huffington Post 2 days ago that made me wary.
Ruth O'Hara was it sponsored by a sugar company?
Sir, its a very helpful video, but I would suggest you to breakdown your language to a more simplified one so that non technically also one can know the most out of it. Good video content though, keep it up.
How does MCT oil stack up against avocado oil?

Who sells a reputable product? How do I know Im not paying $30 for 700ml of corn oil?
Thank you for including the transcript of your videos. I have found I enjoy reading all those long word you say with ease. And sometimes I miss what was said so it's nice to read it. Thank you!
Thomas, love the content!!
SpencerBeneky appreciate it brother!
I assume that's an in-depth double blinded placebo study on Malteasers at 0:50?
thanks for the info brother. can my breastfeeding wife take MCT oil ?
AWESOME CONTENT !
Love your channel. Viewer from Malaysia. Keto diet for approximately 3 weeks now. Does drinking coffee increase blood sugar and insulin in the body, kicking us out of ketosis?
Ok. Noted on that. I stopped cold turkey on milk with coffee and now on americano. Here in Malaysia, sugar is normally added to anything especially hot beverages. I was reading something about caffeine triggering glucose production and hence insulin also is produced in the blood. I understand that when insulin is produced, we burn glucose rather than fat. So I just wanted to be careful in trying not to be out of ketosis. Thanks Tae
how about liquid coconut oil? It still has lauric acid but it's got more in the way of MCTs. Is that good to cook with?
QUESTION: Any suggestion on which MCT brand includes C6 + C8 + C10?
Thanks in advance, Thomas!
Keep the great info and content coming brotha!

Thank you! I was curious about whether or not the brain and body composition benefits of MCT oil were true. Always helpful health & nutrition facts from you, Thomas. Thanks again!
So coconut oil show apply ~instant power through the true short-chain molecules and the c-12 molecules can be stored in the liver to be used later as needed?
That was awesome
I purchased some organic coconut powder for my coffee in the mornings. Is this ok?
This is what I know, the saturated fat in extra virgin coconut oil non-refine non GMO organic is ( medium-chain triglycerides) doesn't require bile to break down and read the following:
This is real life real story ;
I had Gallstones and have 2 friends had gallstones, they took (1 tbsp coconut oil mixed with 8 oz fresh green Apple juice) every morning before any food, their stones gone after 2 month I started May 25th 2020 hopefully mine are gone too in 2 month too, 2 days later, light urine, brown stool , constipation gone, bloated stomach gone, June 14th, no attack since May 25th, every now and then I feel movement in my gallbladder like something move in slow motion could be gas from bowel but no pain, hope it was contraction from gallbladder pushing the stones out. July 21st I got another ultrasound, all gallstones gone. there are few polyps measure up to 2 mm, doctor sent me the report also stated no more follow up needed:)
ps* I also took 4 to 6 oz of celery juice to help enlarge the bile duck before the Coconut oil mix.. zero attack since taking this remedy and stones gone in 2 months. use my remedy I can provide you my ultrasound reports before and after used of coconut oil if you have doubt. I'm eating bacon, shrimp, super spicy Korean food, they don't do crap to my gallbladder
Hi Thomas
I have purchased mct oil costing £17
Content is c8 =fifty two.3 per cent
C10 =forty.two per cent
C12=0.nine per cent
Will the C12 being a long chain compromise the efficiency of the other two ie interfere with quick ketone production
Really hope you can answer as l am waiting to begin my keto life!!
Many thanks
I’ve been watching your videos for some time now along with Dr Berg. Though you have much more nutritional science info you share, your videos are hard to follow because the pictures you use while talking are distracting. They pull the mind away from what you’re saying just enough to lose track. So I’m constantly having to back up 20 seconds and catch what it was you said before being distracted by some stupid image or video that is trying too hard to be relevant. For example the picture of gems in this video. Just because you say “gem” doesn’t mean we need to see a 3 sec clip of rotating gems. Please stop. You’ll get more viewers and and followers because your videos will be better to watch rather than just listen to. Hope you take a moment to read and profit from some constructive criticism. Man you’re smart on this stuff! Thanks for your videos!
