6 Remarkable Benefits of MCT Oil

In recent years more and more people have started to use MCT oil for its fantastic benefits in health, wellness, and personal care. MCT oil stands for Medium-Chain Triglycerides which are fatty acids naturally found in coconut oil , palm kernel oil and dairy products. MCT molecules are smaller than those fats that we eat everyday, making it more easy to digest and also easily absorbed in our bloodstream.

Below we will explore some of the amazing benefits of MCT oil
