Each 15ml tablespoon serving delivers 9.8g of C8 (caprylic acid) and 4.2g of C10 (capric acid), roughly six times more true MCTs than plain coconut oil, which contains only around 15% C8 and C10. Zero carbs, unflavoured, and produced in Mutant's own facility to their quality standard. 946ml, in stock at EatMe Supplements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy MCT Oil — and Why C8 and C10 Specifically\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMCTs take fewer biochemical steps to convert into energy than carbohydrates — they bypass normal fat digestion and are rapidly converted to ketones, which the body and brain can use for fuel almost immediately. Not all MCTs are equal though:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eC8 (caprylic acid) — 9.8g per serve\u003c\/strong\u003e — the most rapidly absorbed and converted to ketones.

Plenty of budget MCT oils load C12 to inflate their MCT numbers.

Once comfortable, increase to 1 tablespoon (15ml) with food once daily. May be used up to 3 tablespoons per day. \u003cstrong\u003eNot recommended for frying\u003c\/strong\u003e — pure C8 and C10 MCTs have a low smoke point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy start with a small dose?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMCT oil can cause nausea, stomach cramps or loose stools if you start at a full dose without building up, which is particularly common in first-time users. Starting at a teaspoon and increasing over a week or two avoids the issue almost entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it suitable for vegans?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — 100% coconut-derived, no animal products. Packaged in a facility that also handles milk, soya, wheat and fish (collagen), so anyone with a severe allergy should check the label before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I use it for cooking?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo — pure C8 and C10 MCTs have a low smoke point and break down at cooking temperatures. Use it cold, or add it to warm rather than hot drinks. For high-heat cooking, use coconut oil instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow does this compare to regular coconut oil?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlain coconut oil is only around 15% true C8 and C10 MCTs — the rest is lauric acid and long-chain fats that don't behave like MCTs at all. Mutant MCT Oil is C8 and C10 only, making it roughly six times more potent as an MCT source per tablespoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWill it make me gain weight?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMCT oil is a fat, so it's calorie-dense — roughly 130 calories per 15ml tablespoon. Those calories still count toward your daily total, so adding it on top of everything else you already eat will push you into a surplus. Used properly it's a swap, not an addition: it replaces other fats or carbohydrate calories in your day, and because it converts to ketones quickly rather than being stored readily, it suits low-carb and keto approaches where fat is the primary fuel. It isn't a fat burner, and it won't do anything for body composition on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mutant","offers":[{"title":"946ML | 64 Serves","offer_id":51039342428327,"sku":"TMUM7114S","price":59.9,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0440\/2420\/1383\/files\/mutant-mct-oil-946ml-topdog-nutrition-9397114_5dbb59a7-9cae-4ea2-a921-304bffa3de91.png?v=1785378809","url":"https:\/\/www.eatmesupplements.co.nz\/products\/mutant-mct-oil-946ml","provider":"Eat Me Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
