Label statements

Directions: Directions: Take one tablespoon 1-2 times per day or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

Formula: Contains: Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) are a special type of fatty acids which are metabolized more fully for energy in the body. Normal fats and oils contain long-chain fatty acids (LCTs). When compared to these fatty acids, MCTs are much shorter in the length thus resembling carbohydrates more than fat. As a result, they are more quickly absorbed by the body and metabolized as fuel. Because of this quick metabolism, the calories in MCTs are very efficiently converted into fuel for immediate use in the mitochondria, instead of being stored as fat.

Formula: Contains: MCTs contain fewer calories than LCTs, are metabolized quicker and actually contribute to an enhanced metabolism to burn even more calories!

Precautions: All Other: Caution: May cause a mild laxative effect.

Precautions: Children: Keep out of reach of children.

Storage: Storage: Keep tightly closed in a cool, dry place.
