Evidence Summary

MCT oil is a purified fat made from medium-chain triglycerides — fatty acids with 8 to 12 carbon atoms — most commonly derived from coconut or palm kernel oil. Unlike long-chain fats, MCTs are absorbed quickly and can be converted into ketones, making them popular in ketogenic diet protocols. The provided studies show MCT oil being used as a supplement in Parkinson's disease dietary interventions, ketogenic therapy for epilepsy and brain cancer, and as a carrier oil for other compounds — though direct, isolated benefits of MCT oil itself were not the primary focus of most studies.
