Medium Chain Triglyceride Oils

Thanks @SherrySweet for the info on MCT and coconut oil!! For those that are concerned with using different types of oil, here is the skinny:

MCT (Medium Chain Triglycerides) are fats that are found in coconut and/or palm kernel oil. MCT's break down rapidly in the liver rather than being digested in the stomach, they are metabolized differently than other conventional types of fat.

MCT's are used to encourage an increase in energy expenditure while decreasing fat storage. MCT's are recommended to replace long chain fatty acids if weight control is desired and are used to control hunger pangs, support fat loss without loss of muscle mass and increase your ketone levels.

MCT's can produce enough ketone bodies to have a significant effect on brain function. Dr. Mary Newport writes about ketone bodies as an alternative fuel for your brain which your body makes when digesting coconut oil, and how coconut oil may offer profound benefits in the fight against Alzheimer's disease.

GoGo has NO GMO's....What are GMO's?

GMOs, or “genetically modified organisms,” are plants or animals created through the gene splicing techniques of biotechnology (also called genetic engineering, or GE). This experimental technology merges DNA from different species, creating unstable combinations of plant, animal, bacterial and viral genes that cannot occur in nature or in traditional crossbreeding.

Virtually all commercial GMOs are engineered to withstand direct application of herbicide and/or to produce an insecticide. Despite biotech industry promises, none of the GMO traits currently on the market offer increased yield, drought tolerance, enhanced nutrition, or any other consumer benefit.

Meanwhile, a growing body of evidence connects GMOs with health problems, environmental damage and violation of farmers’ and consumers’ rights.
