Also known as octanoic acid, caprylic acid is an eight-carbon MCT naturally found in coconut and palm kernel oil. Because it is rapidly absorbed, transported directly to the liver, and readily crosses the mitochondrial membrane to undergo Knoop oxidation, caprylic acid is an efficient fuel source, easily assimilated by adipose tissue. Acute ingestion of 10 g of caprylic acid is also known to increase the formation of ketone bodies, which are normally produced by the liver when glucose availability is low, such as during fasting or intense exercise. In addition to providing energy for tissues such as the heart and muscles, ketone bodies become the brain's main secondary energy source when glucose availability decreases. A clinical trial found that caprylic acid was the most ketogenic MCT compared to coconut oil, capric acid (C10:0), or a combination of oils. It has also been suggested that MCTs support energy production and performance during exercise by regulating mitochondrial function and carbohydrate utilization, and it may contribute to a negative energy balance by increasing energy expenditure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unytii - Suppléments et Produits Naturels","offers":[{"title":"450ml","offer_id":45076144357429,"sku":"mct-ketone-energy-genestra-brands-450ml","price":34.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/4865\/3365\/files\/8098718613557-1.webp?v=1783975736","url":"https:\/\/www.ocanova.ca\/products\/mct-ketone-energy","provider":"Ocanova Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
