Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. I wanted to address the question, does MCT oil lead to higher levels of cholesterol?

And the answer is a big fat, no, it won't. In fact, there's some studies that show that it will

lower your cholesterol. Why? Because it can increase your bile, increases the bile flow. In order

to increase bile, you need certain fats. So bile is essential in dealing with excess cholesterol. It helps to break it down and actually push it through into the intestines and out through the body.

Virgin cod liver oil is 55% MCT oils. And there's some data that shows that it too can potentially lower your cholesterol.

Now, other studies will show that MCT oil and coconut oil won't increase it or decrease it.

It has no effect. So, you know, it really depends on the other variables.

But what happens to the MCT oil once you consume it is it breaks down quick, it goes right to the liver, and it turns

in the ketones to give you energy. I always recommend MCT oil in the transition phase as you get

in the ketosis to help you fast longer. So some people put it in their coffee. It's very satisfying,

so your hunger will go down it also will help

give you more energy specifically more brain energy and less brain fogs if given the choice between

glucose and ketones the brain will go after the ketone and so when you you take MCT oil, you're going to feel like your

cognitive function is better. You have more endurance and you'll need less naps. And if you're exercising,

MCT oil can help you go longer because you'll have more energy.
