Trans fat formed by partial hydrogenation of polyunsaturated fats leads to high blood cholesterol, high LDL, low HDL;
VCO does not raise cholesterol level in the blood, fact is it maintains or even increase HDL in the blood;
VCO’s short and medium chain triglycerides such as caproic, caprylic, capric, lauric and myristic acids, enter directly into the portal vein, are transported directly to the liver to immediately provide energy and not deposited as fat. VCO is thermo genetic, raises the metabolic rate of the body thus help prevents accumulation of fat. Effective energy value of MCT even causes weight loss;
