A ketogenic-grade MCT powder built on a C8-dominant fatty acid profile and a low-carbohydrate carrier system. Pure C8 converts to ketones faster than mixed C8:C10 oil, which is why ketogenic formulators specify C8 content rather than settling for the word "MCT" on a label.

FAQ
Why use MCT powder in ketogenic products?
This grade combines a C8-dominant fatty acid profile with a low-carbohydrate carrier system, so keto and low-carb formulations can add MCT without the handling and dosing issues of liquid oil.
Does it work in hot coffee and shakes?
Yes. It disperses in MCT coffee, creamers and instant drink mixes without separating into an oil ring on the surface.
What is the carrier system?
The oil is encapsulated with food-grade wall materials and carriers; the full specification — total fat, fatty-acid profile, moisture, granularity and contaminants — is listed in the tables above.
Powder or liquid MCT for keto blends?
Powder suits dry mixes, shakes and bars; liquid MCT Oil (Medium-Chain Triglycerides) suits oil-based products and softgels. Both are produced at the same base.
How should the powder be stored?
Indoors in a clean, dry, ventilated place away from light, heat sources, strong odours and dust. Shelf life is 24 months at ≤ 25°C when unopened; use promptly after opening.
