YouTube Description
as posted by the channelš¢ Ask Dr. Bikmanās Digital Mind
Insulin IQ community member, Pam asks why using MCT oil, which is not an exogenous ketone, still raises her ketone levels. Dr. Bikman explains that MCTs and shorter fats are absorbed directly into the bloodstream from the gut, bypassing the complex process longer fats undergo.
These fats go straight to the liver, which must immediately burn them due to their short carbon chains, as cells cannot store such short-chain fats. This increased fat burning in the liver results in higher ketone production, making MCTs highly ketogenic.
