Sally-Ann Crede MCT Oil Powder

Sally-Ann Creed® MCT oil powder is made from traditional MCT oil through the process of spray drying. This results in a powdered supplement with all the wonderful benefits of pure MCT oil. It is versatile and can be used to increase the nutritional density of your favourite hot drinks, smoothies or other recipes.

MCTs are proving popular because they provide the body with a high-quality, instantly available energy source that is quickly metabolised and never stored as fat. MCTs are metabolised directly by the liver, unlike carbohydrate sugars which must trigger an insulin response before they can be transported via the bloodstream and taken up by the cells. So efficient is the body’s ability to convert MCTs into energy that they are often used to feed premature infants (parenteral feeding) who simply do have the power to metabolise other foods.

They are used as a natural performance enhancer by athletes and bodybuilders as they are anti-inflammatory in addition to providing instant and sustainable energy. MCTs have also found used in weight loss programmes where they have been shown to improve metabolism and thyroid function as well as increase the number of calories burnt (thermogenic effect). Diabetics may also benefit from including MCT oil in their diets as it improves blood sugar regulation.
