Episode 2676:

Tammy's concern about whether MCT oil raises cholesterol is addressed by explaining that MCTs, derived from processed coconut or palm oil, do not increase blood cholesterol levels according to meta-analyses. In contrast, unprocessed coconut or palm oil, which contains long-chain triglycerides, can raise LDL cholesterol. The importance of choosing high-quality MCT oil supplements and consulting with a doctor is also emphasized.

Quotes to ponder:

“MCT oil supplements do not seem to raise our blood cholesterol levels.”

“Saturated fats, like coconut oil and palm oil, do tend to increase blood cholesterol levels, specifically the 'bad' type of cholesterol - LDL cholesterol.”

“Medium-chain triglycerides, because they’re smaller, don’t take as long to get absorbed by the body.”
