Alpha Supreme 100% Medium Chain Triglycerides. "MCTs" are naturally occurring saturated fats in coconut and palm kernel oil. Easier to digest than other typically used fats, they are readily absorbed and break down rapidly in the liver, rather than being stored as fat. Acting like a carbohydrate, they provide the necessary energy and calories while decreasing the fat stored in the body.
