About Medium-Chain Triglyceride (MCT)
Medium-Chain Triglyceride (MCT) is a saturated triglyceride mixture derived from coconut oil or palm kernel oil. Its primary components are caprylic acid (C8H16O2) and decylic acid (C10H20O2), with their combined content constituting no less than 95% of the total fatty acids.
Upon hydrolysis by lipase, MCTs are efficiently broken down by the liver, providing a rapid energy supply to the body.
MCT powder stands out due to its advanced processing. Formed through embedding and spray-drying, combined with secondary embedding technology and agglomeration granulation, our MCT powder boasts a higher oil content, lower surface oil, and enhanced product stability.
