Dr. Hamel's MCT Super Blend

to being utilized as an energy source by the body, the medium chain triglycerides

found in coconut oil can be metabolized directly by the liver into the very highest

quality units of cellular energy available, called alpha-keto acids.

The byproduct of this process results in the formation of another compound, called

a 1-monoglyceride. Depending on the specific medium chain triglyceride

being metabolized, the resulting 1-monoglyceride will exert a varying degree of

antifungal, antiviral, antiparasitic, or antibacterial influence in the body.

Although it is well suited for cellular energy applications, the fatty acid profile of

coconut oil leaves some “room for improvement” in regard to the 1-monoglyceride

byproducts that it creates.

To address this need, Dr Hamel's MCT Super Blend was developed. With over 4 times

as much capric acid, and over 3 times as much caprylic and caproic acid as would

be found in virgin coconut oil, Dr. Hamel's Super Blend is vastly superior in

regard to antifungal and antiviral applications. With almost 20% lauric acid, there

will be ample quantities of monolaurin to exert its antibacterial influence.

Although this oil is not indicated for use as a cooking oil, it does happen to be

perfect for adding to hot foods or beverages, or into cold foods as well, such as

smoothies or salad dressings. It can be taken with food, or on an empty stomach,

and though a person cannot eat too many medium chain triglycerides, a person can

eat too many too quickly. This will cause a sensation of transient nausea, or

perhaps even diarrhea. If this should occur, reduce the amount being taken at one

time and spread the target dose out over the course of the day. A nice starting

point might be three Tablespoons a day (one Tbsp applied to each meal).
