I just had 2 tsp of MCT to break my 1st 48 hour fast. It was easy as I was not home so I never had food cross my mind once lol😅. Didn't even feel anything. Thanks to Ketones. Truly amazing.
excerpts from Dr Berg: MCT oil is 100% MCTs, whereas coconut only is only 15% MCTs (and 45% LCFA) benefits of taking MCT oil : • Fast digestion and absorption • Converts to ketones quickly • Great for people without a gallbladder (doesn’t require bile salts) • Boosts energy • Supports brain • Helps reduce insulin resistance • Reduces hunger benefits of coconut oil : • Great for cooking because it doesn’t smoke when it gets hot • Increases HDL cholesterol • Great for skin • Helps lower plaque • Supports the immune system • Digests slowly Thank you Dr Berg!!
I found that putting both the MCT oil and coconut oil helped my digestive system tolerate the MCT oil better. So I always combine the two. Plus, The coconut oil adds a nice flavor to my coffee. I cannot tolerate dairy in my coffee. It aggregates my GERD and gives me a acid reflux cough that is really annoying.
@@lindareed1374 I found that I could only tolerate smaller amounts like 1 tsp of each, rather than the tablespoon that a lot of people add. Plus I’m just not a fan of super oily coffee. I blend it of course, but I drink it slow so it does let the oil sit at the top again. But at 1 tsp of MCT and 1 tsp of coconut oil, I don’t have any issues. And I might do 2 cups of coffee with that amount. You could start there and experiment with increasing it by small amounts and see how your body responds. It’s easy to find your upper limit with MCT oil though lol. Your body WILL tell you. I’ve done just coconut oil in higher amounts with zero issues, but it’s the MCT oil that I have to be more careful with. I wish I didn’t because that’s the one that gives you the extra ketones, more brain power, and energy and all that. But combining it with coconut oil definitely helps me.
Thank you Cher, I will try to use only 1 tsp of MCT oil and add the coconut oil and hope this works because I agree it gives me that boost I need to stay in my fast.
I have been healthy but added MCT oil, which I purchased from my health food store, based on general recommendations. My LDLs and triglycerides were high after about two months on this product. My HDLs have always been high, around 60, and I attributed this to olive oil. My other labs were normal, including my CRP. The only difference in my diet was the addition of the MCT oil. It seems to be the culprit.
Your information is so clear and researched based. I have forwarded one of your videos on using bile as a supplement for shoulder pain and fibromyalgia and my doctor was surprised to hear what you shared, and gave me a thumbs up on getting your bile supplement. I am so pleased that I can count on you for researched information and products!
I started fasting after watching one of your videos about 6 weeks ago. My belly fat has reduced very quickly with little effort. This is life changing. TY
Thank you Dr. Berg so much! As always you deliver relevant content get straight to the point and deliver the facts and such a relatable way with such an amazing bedside manner. Thank you so much for being gentle and helping me to learn so very many things. You are a great teacher of Wellness!
Lost a lot of weight without effort since adding oils and salts back to my diet. My body stopped storing fat! No keto just lost the 'crap' from the diet, moved more, added meditation and now am back to my long standing weight of 10 stone 10. @ 6 foot in height. Good energy levels Sugar is my issue. Next to beat I only have it in tea, but... Several of them. I am weaning off tea by adding green tea to black tea, to alter the taste to favour a move to green tea. Now I have water kefir, that could change!
i just add cocao powder to my greentea to give it flavor. if u gotta add sweetner use small amounts of either raw honey or non glycemic coconut sugar. im surprised dr Berg hasnt done a video about coconut sugar
I love the part of meditation. I did that also. Understanding and feeling your emotions, rather than hiding from them or omitting. Being yourself and with yourself. I noticed that "storing" emotions caused, in my case, storing fat. When I started meditating regularly, my body just opened as my emotions went out to be felt. I didn't have a big problem with weight though, just over 8kg. But visually, like 15kg since my muscles were weak. Now proportions changed. I'm stronger than ever, both mentally and physically.
@@solekhashuwa i no longer eat seed oils...instead i use organic veg/animal fats like grassfed butter , fresh avocado, icelandic cod liver oil (mixed with pure essential oil of choice like mint)
Thank you for the explanation it is so much easier for me to listen to your explanation than wade through all the info on the internet. Love these short infoclips.
I used to take 1-2tsp of MCT-oil. You're definitely right about starting small. Personally, I don't know if it was the MCT, the coffee or the increase in ketones, but I got stressed out and a serious headache. Powerful stuff!
I was wondering if eating the coconut itself would be more beneficial than the extracts? Thank you as always Dr Berg for all the wonderful information you share with us🙏🙏🙏

I suspect that MCT doesn’t have the antiviral effect that regular organic extra virgin coconut oil has. from my experience, but I think you’re right that MCT is good for certain things like gall bladder issues, my mom uses MCT and has a gall bladder issue
Is MCT oil refined?? Coconut oil can be found virgin/extravirgin, cold pressed and unrefined... And since nutrients are preserved in unrefined oils, not sure of the MCT... Any opinion on this?
@karin E Alvarez Of course MCT oil is refined. Keyword is “extracted”! Probably safer to stick with coconut oil unless one is sure of the method of extraction.
I thought coconut oil was 40 - 50% lauric acid - which is almost considered a long chain FA, because it’s C12 - and then the rest was MCT’s like capric, caproic and caprilic acid - this last one being C8 - the most ketogenic of all MCT’s.

I'm using coconut oil for years but didn't know anything about MCT. Sounds good. I'll try it but what I've just found out, it's way more expensive! So sad!
I may have to try this. I've been using a combination of EVOO with a little bit of Primal Kitchen ranch for my salads. I've always loved ranch dressing, so was thrilled when I discovered PK ranch
Mct oil sends my histamines through the roof, more so than coconut oil. Didn't make sense to me until I googled it. Apparently it blocks antigen absorption and causes a th2 response. Sucks because most cbd oil is mixed with mct oil.
MCT oil acts as a laxative in my body. I couldn’t take CBD oil with it as a result. I looked for an alternative CBT oil and found one mixed with olive oil which is fine for me. I also thought about trying a tincture which uses an alcohol base but haven’t needed to yet.
Again realized that triglycerid fat as in calf tallow, calf feta can handle my insulin resistance as allergic to coconut I now can not find mct made from palm oil. The other thing I want to mention is oxalat acid, the elephant in the room, I just recently got toxicated by green kale, China kale contains half the amount! This is a serious topic that you must mention!
I take a supplement of MCT oil 120 mcg and D3 5000 IU. I can't eat coconut oil cause it makes me nauseated. The supplement doesn't. Do I need more than 120 mcg of MCT? Thanks Doc for your videos. I am hooked on them..lol Love and blessings to you and your's.
I’m confused @dr berg in the previous video about the benefits of coconut oil you stated that coconut oil has 70% MCTs and in this video you say it only has 15% MCTs, so which is it?? 🤔
My first experience with MCT oil was more than 20 yrs ago and I had no idea how good it was...then i stopped but I prefer coconut anyway...I made some good guesses I suppose
Dr Berg In your other videos you said coconut oil to reverse dementia because of mctoil. But in this video you said coconut oil is only 15percent mct oil. So should we take mct oil or coconut oil?
Been listening to you for years I’ve change my eating habits listening to you I went from 280 to 206 three male 64 years old. And I look pretty damn good now LOL

Omg! You're from Manitoba? Sorry to divert from the original subject. Please what is Manitoba like? I have a neice in school there. Have been wondering what is like.
That’s good you can get it in Manitoba, Canada. Dr Berg’s stuff is usually the more expensive stuff anyway, and even if this one product is cheaper you’d still have to get a bunch of more stuff that’s more expensive so that you’re not paying an exorbitant amount for shipping. So it’s good to get it local, plus no waiting a week or more for it to get to you. So you win!
I've contacted Dr. Berg's team several times to ask what percent of c8 caprylic acid is used in the MCT Oil sold on his website and CANNOT get an answer. The bottle labeling doesn't provide this detail though nearly every product on the market does provide this information. A simple question and something that should appear on the bottle?? This raise doubts about the quality of the Berg MCT Oil product.
Hello doctor, I would like to ask you is it true that combining fish with milk causes skin irritation, I am very afraid of irritating my skin because I combined them in the morning 😫

I achieve great success every week with the guidance of my BROKER and since contacting my BROKER, Mrs Elizabeth Armstrong Palmer, I have gained a lot with small losses, her trading strategy is top-notch.

In another video you said coconut oil breaks down the outer coating on viruses ( paraphrased ). My question is since MCT is from coconut will it do the same thing ? If so does it do that more, less, or the same as coconut oil ?
Philippines has a lot of mct oil. I take everyday.Cold pressed coconut centrifugal process. Its affordable here because only people with knowledge buy it.😆
2:13 "Can irritate digestion" Can you offer a way to limit the irritation? MCT makes me queasy (irritated digestion?) and I'd like to use it.... Keep trying with tiny amounts and if it's a matter of "getting used to it" I don't seem to be succeeding in that.
MCT oil side effects: • When you first start consuming MCT oil, it could give you digestive troubles. Always start small at the beginning (1/2 tsp.) and consume more over time (up to 1 Tbsp). • It may also have mild laxative effects. • It may slow down weight loss. But, it is great to help you as you begin intermittent fasting. • It is a refined product-it doesn’t have a lot of nutrients. Eat healthy, along with taking MCT oil.
C12 is much much better in raising insulin sensitivity than C8 or C10. I am taking C12 only and not doing Keto but losing weight faster than when I'm on MCT..
I'm Elvin I've been working with you for a while and I did leave one message where I had had a bad heart with water on it and I had to change my ways my eating habits and I'm completely gone on to keto healthy and I've been nothing but healthy and energetic and my skin is clearing up I still got to do a better omega-3 cuz I don't think I can get enough nutrients out of the ones I'm taking but I do eat the fatty fish which is salmon and it when I eat it everyday my skin clears up if I miss a couple days and dries up
Can we use coconut oil if mct is difficult to find ...its sometimes difficult find good mct ..cos i travel a lot in my job ..but coconut oil id often available

My life has totally changed since I started with $7,000 and now I make $ 29,450 every 11 days.
i'm new to investing, how do i do it?
I achieve great success every week with the guidance of my BROKER and since contacting my BROKER, Mrs Elizabeth Armstrong Palmer, I have gained a lot with small losses, her trading strategy is top-notch.
I have heard a lot about investments with Mrs Elizabeth A Palmer and how good she is, please how safe are the profits?
after watching so many UA-cam tutorial videos about trading I was still making losses until Mrs Elizabeth started managing my investments now I make $21,560 weekly. God bless Mrs Elizabeth Armstrong Palmer she’s been a blessing to my family.
I have really heard lot about Mrs Elizabeth, please can I have her info?
I have a post-surgical short distal ileum, resulting in a deficiency absorption syndrome.
Great info, thanks.
I'm glad you liked this post.
Thanks Dr. Berg your the Best❤
In another video you said coconut oil breaks down the outer coating on viruses ( paraphrased ). My question is since MCT is from coconut will it do the same thing ? If so does it do that more, less, or the same as coconut oil ?
Difference between vco and mct? Vco(virgin coconut oil)
Same, i ask it before
Vco just 15% of mct oil..
mct oil so pricy..
@@AbdulMajid-rq4jr dr.berg said its the same
Same.
@@Drberg thanks doc😍👍
Just love you, Dr. Berg. Such a good Dr.
I've been using coconut oil for oil pulling in replacement of mouthwash works great kills bad breath ill try the other u mentioned thanks
Just about what I was waiting for😊
Philippines has a lot of mct oil. I take everyday.Cold pressed coconut centrifugal process. Its affordable here because only people with knowledge buy it.😆

Ano ba Yong MCT oil? Hehe
@@ladyjhen761 medium chain triglyceride oil. Like Extra virgin coconut oil

Thank you Dr.Berg
I like i like i like ❤❤❤👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Dr. Berg!
I've been watching Dr. Berg videos for 2.5 straight hours now. I'm completely addicted. Dr. Berg, what do i do about this addiction?🤣🤣🤣
Does it raise triglycerides? And can you do a video comparing mct oil and mct powder?
Dr. Berg can You tell us how to consume these products, You explained everything except for that.
Thanks.
2:13 "Can irritate digestion" Can you offer a way to limit the irritation? MCT makes me queasy (irritated digestion?) and I'd like to use it.... Keep trying with tiny amounts and if it's a matter of "getting used to it" I don't seem to be succeeding in that.
MCT oil side effects:
• When you first start consuming MCT oil, it could give you digestive troubles. Always start small at the beginning (1/2 tsp.) and consume more over time (up to 1 Tbsp).
• It may also have mild laxative effects.
• It may slow down weight loss. But, it is great to help you as you begin intermittent fasting.
• It is a refined product-it doesn’t have a lot of nutrients. Eat healthy, along with taking MCT oil.
Will using Lanolin creams raise my Vit D level?

I’m wondering is MCT oil extracted using heat? Thank you for all your great videos.
MCT oil cured my dog's epilepsy. I can't thank you enough, Dr. Berg! ❤❤❤
I use coconut oil in my coldstart morning coffee. Kills my hunger 'till 10:00, my first meal time.
Should I move to MCT oil?
Yes.
I just about 3 tsps and it does a body fabulous!
How do you consume it and how often?
Thank you so much 😊
You helped me lose 100 lbs doing keto. I’m adding mct oil to my regime.
Sounds like I should take both MCT oil and Coconut oil to get all the benefits. Can I take them together with food?
C12 is much much better in raising insulin sensitivity than C8 or C10. I am taking C12 only and not doing Keto but losing weight faster than when I'm on MCT..
What is better for remaining in a fasted state WITH COFFEE? Coconut oil or MCT oil?
During each day I eat 3 T. of coconut oil. Right off a spoon!!Been doing it since I started fasting 4 years ago
and what about VIRGIN coconut oil?
Hey doctor, can you talk about post COVID-19 exercise? How long do we wait before starting to workout again and what intensity? Thank you in advance.
Matt...I would start out with limited time and intensity and work up slowly as tolerated.
See my comment
Watch Joe rogans new video about his experience with covid
which one is better to fight candida and toe nail fungus?
How do I sign up for the course Dr berg. I love your YT channel.
I'm Elvin I've been working with you for a while and I did leave one message where I had had a bad heart with water on it and I had to change my ways my eating habits and I'm completely gone on to keto healthy and I've been nothing but healthy and energetic and my skin is clearing up I still got to do a better omega-3 cuz I don't think I can get enough nutrients out of the ones I'm taking but I do eat the fatty fish which is salmon and it when I eat it everyday my skin clears up if I miss a couple days and dries up
What about Grapeseed oil?
Is it Keto compliant?
Thank you 🙏
@1:32 MCTs will all convert to ketones QUCKLY/EASILY, vs. coconut oil you're only going to get 15% of it converting to ketones QUICKLY/EASILY.*
Can we use coconut oil if mct is difficult to find ...its sometimes difficult find good mct ..cos i travel a lot in my job ..but coconut oil id often available
