MCT Oil and Diabetes: Unleashing the Power of Healthy Fats
1. What is MCT Oil?
MCT stands for Medium-Chain Triglycerides, a unique type of healthy fat found in coconut, palm, and certain dairy products. Unlike long-chain fats, MCTs are rapidly absorbed by the body and converted into an immediate source of energy. This makes them an attractive option for people with type 2 diabetes.

MCT Oil and Diabetes
1. Improved Insulin Sensitivity: Studies suggest that MCT oil may enhance insulin sensitivity, which means your cells respond better to insulin to regulate blood sugar levels.
2. Managing Blood Glucose Levels: MCT oil has shown promise in stabilising blood sugar levels and preventing drastic spikes and drops after meals, which is crucial for diabetes management.
3. Increased Energy and Exercise Performance: MCT oil provides a quick and sustained energy source, making it beneficial for physical activity, which is vital for diabetes.
4. Supporting Weight Management: MCT oil might aid in weight management by promoting a feeling of fullness and supporting a healthy metabolism.
Combining MCT Oil into Your Diet
1. Start Slowly: Introduce MCT oil gradually to avoid digestive discomfort. Begin with a small amount and gradually increase it. A general guideline for starting with MCT oil is around 1 to 2 tablespoons per day. So, consumption depends on health conditions, age, weight, activity level, and personal tolerance.
2. Choose Quality Products: Choose pure and organic MCT oil without additives or artificial ingredients.
3. Cooking and Recipes: MCT oil is heat-stable up to 320°F, making it suitable for cooking or even as a coffee booster!
4. Smoothies and Dressings: Add a splash of MCT oil to your favourite smoothie or use it as a base for salad dressings.
5. Mindful Consumption: Remember that MCT oil is calorie-dense, so be mindful of the amount you consume every day.
Finally, MCT oil could be a valuable addition to your diabetes management plan. However, it's not a substitute for prescribed medicines or a balanced lifestyle.
