MCT Oil: The Unsung Hero of Absorption, Energy & Brain Power

MCT oil might not have the star power of CBD or the ancient mystique of Ashwagandha, but trust us—this liquid gold is doing some serious heavy lifting in your wellness routine. Whether it’s supercharging your brain, fueling your body, or making cannabinoids work better, MCT oil is the VIP of bioavailability (fancy word for your body actually absorbing the good stuff).

Let’s break it down—what MCT oil is, why it’s in your VIIQ products, and why you should care.

What Is MCT Oil, and Why Should You Love It?

MCT stands for Medium-Chain Triglycerides, which is just a science-y way of saying a special kind of healthy fat that your body absorbs fast and converts directly into energy—no complicated digestion required.

It’s sourced from coconut oil or palm oil, but don’t worry, we’re only using sustainable sourced coconut oil that won’t make you feel guilty about deforestation or sad orangutans.

Unlike long-chain fats (which take their sweet time being processed), MCTs go straight to the liver and are used for energy immediately—making them a favorite for athletes, keto lovers, and anyone looking to ditch brain fog.

Why Is MCT Oil in Your VIIQ Products?

If you’ve ever wondered why CBD, THC, and other cannabinoids are often mixed with MCT oil, here’s the deal:

💡 It Supercharges Cannabinoid Absorption

• Cannabinoids (like CBD, CBG, and THC) are fat-soluble, meaning they need fat to be properly absorbed.
• MCT oil acts as a carrier oil, helping your body absorb more of the good stuff, faster.

⚡ Provides Clean, Crash-Free Energy

• Your body converts MCTs into ketones, which are an instant source of fuel for your brain and muscles.
• No sugar, no caffeine, no jitters—just pure, steady energy.

🧠 Boosts Brain Function & Focus

• MCT oil has been shown to support cognitive function, making it a go-to for people looking to fight brain fog and stay sharp.
• Some research even suggests it may help protect against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s.

🔥 Supports Metabolism & Fat Burning

• Unlike other fats, MCTs are more likely to be used for energy instead of stored as fat.
• They also increase the release of satiety hormones, helping you feel fuller longer.

How to Use MCT Oil Like a Pro

✔ Ingest It: Take it straight from the spoon, blend it into coffee (hello, bulletproof), or add it to smoothies.
✔ With Cannabinoids: The easiest way to get the benefits is through CBD or THC tinctures that use MCT as a carrier oil (like VIIQ’s formulations).
✔ Start Small: Too much too fast can lead to, uh… digestive distress (trust us on this one).

Final Takeaway

MCT oil isn’t just filler—it’s the ultimate carrier oil, making cannabinoids work better while fueling your brain, body, and metabolism. Whether you’re looking for better CBD absorption, sustained energy, or a brain boost, MCT oil is the unsung hero you didn’t know you needed.
