MCT stands for Medium Chain Triglycerides. Let's get to the truth about them.Watch out. There is a lot of misinformation out there.
Here is a good option for MCT: bit.ly/2Qzvvn5

I just started the Keto diet a week ago. I cleaned out the pantry, went shopping, meal prepped, and started my adventure. Don't think I am in ketosis yet but I am hoping soon the weight will start falling off. Love Dr. Boz video's.
Hey Dr. Boz, Thanks for posting this info ! Just started Keto and in 15 days I lost 11 pounds ! More important, getting off sugar, I'm seeing clarity in my brain that I didn't realize I was missing ! I truly am thankful ! All the best, Monte
I love listening to you so much better than anyone else on the subject of keto. You explain it so well. I have a autoimmune disorder psoriasis. MCT would definitely help me. I started keto yesterday and my psoriasis is flaring up big time. Hopefully with this diet and MCT oil it will go in remission.
I’ve been watching other Keto channels that cover the science but none is as thorough and easy to understand as Dr Boz! I’m obsessed with this channel, I wanna study these videos like they’re curriculum for a class on how to fuel a body optimally. Thank you Dr Boz for helping so many of us live better lives and understand our body better!
Wow this doctor has the incredible ability to turn complex matters into very simple ones. I'm loving it!
You are an incredible teacher! Thank you.
Never heard this kind of explanation before about MCTs and how it works in the body. This was very interesting. Thanks!
I dont normally comment but out of all the MCT videos ive seen this is it. I now have a full understanding of what I need and how it works. Keep doing what you are doing you are so valuable to us.
I use coconut oil. I started taking it several years ago because I was not as smart as I need to be on my job. I was working as a computer controls system engineer. That is a very complex job as you can imagine. Taking coconut oil did it for me. My brother, who has Parkinson's, tried it and got some noticeable improvement also. I'm sure MCT oil is just as good. I am keto adapted and don't really need MCT oil to get into ketosis.
James Edd Wheeler , how much do you use per day? Do you put it in your coffee or food? Thank you for your help as l am new to Keto.
Dr. Bosworth, as with all of your vids, I truly appreciate your thorough explanation of the science. I hope people watch this presentation, since there are other "doctors" claiming you can just buy some cheap organic coconut oil and derive benefits. I also appreciate your style- no arrogant, hard selling attitude from the muscle head dudes which I had to sit through before discovering your channel. Thanks again!
Listened to this again and it sounds even simpler to understand than the first time. Dr Boz is great at breaking down complex stuff...
Will D BIG SMILE!!! I’m recording a video now & just was struggling with this question, “Will anyone find this useful?” Thanks for the encouragement. Tune in Thursday for the previously mentioned video.
@@DoctorBoz Thanks...keep the good stuff coming...certainly useful.
Best Medical Doctor on UA-cam! Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Always much appreciated!
I loved the C8-C10 lining up in front of the mitochondria!
Wow Dr. Boz, That subject matter was clear, succinct and simple. I think you really have a gift. How Lucky I am to have recently discovered you.
john peter same thoughts about the doctor here!
Great video.
Agree
@Absolutely nothing on my channel Hi I hope your doing well since your post last month. I wonder if you have tried Ketorade? There are various recipes on youtube but here is what I do: 1 liter Mountain Valley Sparkling Spring Water - flavored, Stevia water drops in a matching flavor, Nu-salt which is basically potassium (not no-salt), 40 drops Trace minerals liquid minerals, 2 Tbs organic apple cider vinegar, 2 Tbs organic lemon juice. You can use the lime flavored water and stevia, and with the lemon it might taste a bit like Mt.Dew? I also do a berry version. It's fizzy and delicious! I hope this helps :)
@Absolutely nothing on my channel Way to go!! I too have given up my favorite drink. Mountain Dew. I noticed very quickly on Keto that I no longer need 10 to 12 Tums for acid indigestion. I'm down to one per day. Also, I can run at the gym again since my knees and hips are hurting less.
agree 100%
Dr. B, Isaac in Austin here. THANK YOU! You are amazing. This information in invaluable. God Love ya!
I just viewed a graphology video about what your signature says about you. Dr. Boz scores high on all indicators! Her signature shows that she is artistic, honest and positive.
Wow, you've made a complex subject so simple and easy to understand! This is the best video explaining the relationship between MCT oil and Keto - thank you Dr. Boz!! It is very much needed!
Thank you for explaining this so clearly! I’ve done Keto a few times over the past 10 years and I recently just learned about MCT
I have been on ketogenic route for quite some time and follow a lot of so called keto experts but your teachings are simple and more informative. Getting your book for more info. Thanks for the good work!!!
iSleepDoc What if I have the MCT oil without being on ketogenic diet? Would that help?
Yao Jaden i dont think so
iSleepDoc Thanks. Why is that？
I’m hooked. Thank you for your knowledge. I suffer with inflammation all over. I am sick from it. Seems like a lot to learn, but willing.
Super clear and helpful description of the impact of MTC. Thanks!
Love your videos. You have easy to understand,well explained, detailed, videos. You know exactly what to look for,or do,once you are done watching.
I share your videos with patients, staff and friends. Well done!!
Most sources indicate 50% MCTs in coconut oil. But I love goat cheese so I’m glad to hear it’s a source too.
Can you also talk about Keto BHB formulas?
God I loveeeeee your channel. Binging this entire Saturday!!!!! Thanks for making these videos, you're amazing at explaining!!!!
That was the best explanation about a complex topic. Thank you
so nice to find a video that not only tells you how and why it works, but also what to look for in the product lables! thanks
Incredible teacher and doctor well explained thank you Dr Boz. From Johannesburg South Africa 👍💕
Hello Dr. Boz Annette
I thank you very much
I'm using a glucose meter and now a ketone breathing meter too
for calculating the Dr. Boz ratio
I started making ketones on a ketogenic diet mostly feed with coconut oil (but not only) two months ago
I just made this last month with a rather high mean glucose value of 180
very stable but never low
I stopped taking pills (I'm still trying to take them sometimes but it goes worse)
my ketones numbers are not that big : less than 1
that changed yesterday and I got frightened because my meter screen was red coloured and the value was 6.8
hopefully it did not last (I made some sport and it went to three and a yellow screen)
today I'm about 1.5 on ketones and my glucose value dropped to 102
that makes a DBR (Dr. Boz ratio) about 70
and I'm glad about it
just one point to tell you all the good changes I feel in my body
I was used to feel pain in my feet as soon as I got up every morning
it changed a few days ago
and now I feel like I walk on a carpet of rose petals
I am near 69 years old and my T2 diabetes is thirty years of age
I bought your book on audible and started to read it
but I was frightened about drinking MCT oil and I still have not buy any
now I think I'll go MCT
actually I've been waiting for it for a so long time
and it's just happening in my body
I didn't think it would be possible for a man with a badly treated thirty years old T2 diabetes
it's still not finished but it's on the way
I got used to watch you on the videos you make
And I feel like you are a very very good friend
I'll give you news from time to time
jpaul chevalier
Great job in plain language for our comprehension of MCT .
I tend to be suspicious and I was waiting for you to plug a product. You didn't. Thanks for the information.
ive been waiting for a doc like you... you give me credibility.
The makeoverguy, in Minneapolis, can give you the perfect cut! This one isnt flattering. UA-cam him. I watch your videos every day and so grateful for them. I'm healing my body. Thank you!
what a blessing you are! I just completed my first day on this new journey
I thought I knew about MCT oil but I am so glad i watched this! Boy, I learned so much. Very important and interesting information. I appreciate your videos so much. (I have your book,too. Love it.) Thank you! Now I'm off to check the label on my brand of MCT!
Best ever explanation on MCT and fats. Understood it clearly. Thank you so much!
Going to buy MCT tomorrow.
Her information was a very clear factual helpful message, Very happy.
This was very informative. More like this please. Thank you Dr. Boz
Best explanation on MCT ever! (With all others I struggled like Richard on Bosworth Field ;-).
I am glad i found your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge Doctor
Great explanation, every time I put someone new to keto on it, I have to explain about mct oils and what they are, I will just send them a link to this video from now on,
Thank you, yet AGAIN, for taking something complicated and helping us understand!!!
Great Content ❤
Thank you Dr. Boz
I really like the way you explain a subject matter! Thank you!
Dr. Boz, your video is not just 'recycling' the common wisdom; I watch UA-cam, and I know an original approach to current subjects. Yours is vital to one who has forgotten certain suggestions, and has been working hard to get back into keto. Think I'm there, been using MCT for 6 months, and my 'pants are falling off' again. When I finish off my 3rd bottle of mct, I'll give your recommended products a whirl. Thanks.
Thanks for a clarifying explanation of MCTs
What an excellent, clear, and interesting presentation. Thank you Dr Boz!
very well explained, by far one of the best detailed video. PERFECT!!
Thank you so much, Dr. Boz! This explanation is clear and easy to understand. Thanks for all you do for us, who are looking to stay in ketosis.
This is my kind of doctor.
I’ve been in ketosis for 4 years and have used MTC oil off and on. I have severe pain and arthritis so I’m fighting inflammation, I will start using it again and see if I can get some positive results. Right now I notice a big difference if I don’t eat an avocado each day. I only eat in the morning and then I fast because my digestion has been so damaged from medications when I was younger.
Excellent information..thanks 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you very much. One of your best, and very useful information. I’ve been using bulletproof Mct oil. But now I’m using the brand that Costco sells. It has c8 & 10. My sugar is not dropping though ... it was 142 fasting, today. I’m not losing weight ... in fact gaining slightly. I’m 78 and my last check up showed A1c at 6.6. A year ago it was 7.8. Thanks again.
Wow, this was like talking to a real doctor right here in my living room. Please forgive us for not straightening up the place before you came over and my weird mother in law constantly judging me while you were doing the consultation. Great stuff though.
Keep the videos coming. Great work. It's good to hear another voice for health.
Thank you so much for making me really understand Keto in such a simple way!! You rock!!
The 1st diet in keto was the English Dr Stilmans drinkingmans diet. Then Atkin made a book just like it and now the keto. I lost 62 pound 5 years ago just using the old Stilman diet. Now I will loose 10 lb on the keto. Listeing to Dr BOZ explains a much better how to understand how your body works.My doctor does not have a clue!
Omg, when I meet doctors like you I am sure that I could’ve made it through medical school. That explanation was on point.👏
me too!!!
I love these videos. Just getting used to keto eating and you are answering a lot of my questions. Thank you
I love the science... i've started Keto many times and failed, but your channel makes it so clear and i'm able to connect the dots as to why! Thank you
Such an excellent explanation on this topic. Keep up your amazing work. I've just stumbled across your UA-cam channel and was blown away by how you explain things ... Had to hit that subscribe button 😁
I use NOW! Sports MCT oil. Its C8 but more importantly that brand has been tested and proven to actually deliver what the label says. Many do not!
Watched again today; love your straight forward explanations!
Thanks for this amazing explanation...
I would like to see a post about Bulletproof Coffee
That was incredible. Thank you.
YOU RULE!!! Very very clear and informative. THANKS A LOT
Amazing video , can't believe I've not found you before now 💃😍🇬🇧
This is the best video on MCT.....no doubt about that....excellent...very simply explained.....thank you very much.....I am confused about one thing...the mct is saturated fat and saturated fats are mostly solid....why mct is liquid?
thank you!...you are so appreciated...👍
i think it really makes a difference in my diet. after the first year of keto and losing 25kg of weight, the weight loss stopped and in the third year of keto half of the weight came back. also my ketones are pretty low at 0,5. i remember that i had 2 liter bottles of MCT in the first year. that may have played a significant role in fat burning and ketone production too.
doing a lot of research on pubmed in the last few days, i found out that the magic happens in the mitochondria - well, it is always the mitochondria, isn't it?
after the liver produced more ketones they go into all cells in the body and change the respiratory quotient. that means that the mitochondria are burning less glucose in favor of fatty acids. and because of this shift in the mitochondria, the hunger goes down. hunger always comes from the usage of blood sugar. but because of more fat burning, there is also more glycerol as a by-product which gets turned into blood glucose. and because the brain loves to use keytones, it spares glucose too.
the same happens when i take sodium bicarbonate, the fat liberation/burning enzymes work much faster because of a higher pH level surrounding them, which means that they burn less glucose.
synergistic to that is taurine as a pH buffer.
conclusion ==>
MCT + sodium bicarbonate + taurine = more fat burning and less glucose burning
The dr told us that sodium bicarbonate helps protect from kidney stones
They have him on a keto diet due to seizures
Thank you Dr. Boz great video
Best explanation I ever saw
Well explained Dr. Boz so that even not a doctor (like myself) can understand.
Thank you
Thank you, again. You answered my next question. My MCT is 70% capriylic/capric & 30 lauric acid. I should be good to go while I attempt autophagy.
This was helpful..I learned my mct was good. I didn’t know there was a difference! Thank you!
OMG! Dr Boz I just mixed the Dr Boz Keto BHB ketones with Bulletproof XTC oil, two tablespoons of cream and water and mixed up with my Nutribullet and it’s incredible! Thanks for the videos!!!!
Matt Barnes - I want to try that!
Dr. Boz [Annette Bosworth, MD] OMG! I just thought it would be even better with my homemade Apple Raspberry Kombucha blended into it!!
I forgot to say I loved reading your book and you encouraged me to jump head on into my Keto journey! I need to rate your book! Been crazy 😜 with work! You are my new role model and most favorite UA-camr lately!
Best video I have seen in explaining MCT oil
Really informative, especially info on label ingredients!
Why don't your videos have millions of views?!!!
Wow. Very good info. Have a bottle of C8. Must start to use. Keto (mostly carnivore) 3wks. Feel better already.
Thank you Annette!
Thank you so much for your channel and especially this great video. I'm new to ketosis and intermittent fasting but already doing well. Your vids are helping me so much in so many ways.
Best wishes from David in Melbourne Australia.
Wow is about right. For me it was amazing. Brilliant work Dr. Boz.
Thank you so much for sharing.
JP
When I started fasting until reaching the level of intermittent fasting (IF; i.e., 16 hrs/day based on common recommendations), I started with 12 hours overnight fasting (i.e., 12 hours from my dinner meal). And from there, I adjusted. For about 1 or 2 weeks, I was able to sustain it until it has become a norm for me.
Then I started to use virgin coconut oil (VCO) & water as my initial breakfast 12 hours from dinner; 1 tbsp VCO + 1 glass water.
From there, my first heavy meal will be 2 hours after taking VCO & water.
After adjusting further, I increased VCO to 2 tbsp then pushed my first heavy meal to 4 hours after taking VCO & water.
So that from my dinner to my first heavy meal of the next day, the time difference about 14 or 16 hours depending on my state of hunger. In a way, it is a modified IF. So far, it is working for me.
Have a good day y'all!
Clear and succinct MCT explanation. Wonder what your sons say when you give them a glucose level challenge?
I pay a bit more but take just straight C8 my body had adapted to it. start with a tsp and work you way up to a Tbls over a week or two no problems after that. Its the fist thing I take in the morning usually in a keto smoothie
You explain so good. Glad I found your channel.
So happy I found you in my research phase for my keto journey I'm about to start! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Very informative video!!
In your list C12 is classified as LCFA but according to NIH and many medical textbooks, C12 is in the range of MCFA. I will be glad if you point me out to some reference where it states that C12 is not MCFA.
Thanks for sharing this information with us and looking forward to your comment.
Very clear and concise! Thank you!
This was brilliantly clear and easy to understand. BEST I have come across. Thank you so much Dr. 😁
Wow, what a clear concise explanation. My first time with Dr. Boz...will be looking up her other podcasts. great stuff
Excellent content, looking forward to more videos from you.
I thought that ketones were a byproduct of your body burning fat, not a product that makes your body burn fat. Please explain.
An excellent video, though a couple additional things would have made it even better: 1. How much MCT oil is enough? 2. Dealing with the side-effects of MCT oil.
You can take up to 3 tablespoons a day. Start low and build your way up
Three fatty acid chains bonded to a glycerol molecule = triglycerides 👍🏾😛 love biochemistry
I am in keto Indian diet without knowing science of it thank you for your explanation
I had the munchies. Then I put MCT oil in hot tea with coconut oil. In 15 minuets I Lost the urge to graze on peanuts. I'm a reformed carboholic . Been that way over a year. I'm not eating after omad meal at noon. Thanks to MCT oil.
Best explanation ever!
grannyzeebee -Yay.. share the love. Pass it to someone else who might like it
Great information, Dr. Bosworth! Thank you.
