MCT Oil
PureFormulas' MCT Oil is a fat/fatty acid supplement providing 100 calories and 14 grams of total fat per tablespoon, contributing 22% of the daily value. This product holds an N+ Score of 46, receiving an 'F' grade, which places it in the below-average quality tier. Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are commonly used for energy and ketogenic diets. While the product clearly states its caloric and fat content, it does not specify the breakdown of individual MCTs (e.g., C8, C10, C12), which can influence efficacy.
