I’m 77 and my window is noon to 3 sometimes 4pm. MCT oil seems best for me prior to 5 km walk at 7am and it appears my alertness peaks about 10am when I study 2nd language…. I take no meds and have no health problems…. Keto days 4 outta 7 ( 3 carb days) metabolically flexible is a bonus for me… weight finally stable

[@koadirt4245]

This is helpful. I've been wanting to start intermittent fasting but my big barrier is that I take a medication in the morning (exactly 12 hrs from the evening dose) that is fat-soluble, requiring that I take it with fat. I always thought this meant that I can never do I.F., but recently I've been trying MCT oil alone as my morning fat source and I think it's working! I'm getting many of the benefits of I.F. even thought I'm technically breaking my fast. I've also noticed that if I eat any other fat, like 1 tbsp of butter with the AM med, it triggers a hunger drive, which MCT doesn't seem to do. I just wanted to post this in case others are in the same boat.

[@Smiles2U4Ever]

I take MCT oil pure C8 straight at teaspoon intervals. I don't mix it with anything. Once before coffee, once at a meal, and once before I start fasting. I fast 18 to 20 hours a day. I am still at the weight loss stage and don't want to break my fast, but once I reach my weight goal I will continue to fast for autophagy and to maintain my weight. I am increasing my exercise level and that will change things up a little for me for protein, etc. All the information you provide is very helpful. Thank you.

I've been experimenting with MCTs at bedtime to help prevent the night time hypoglycemia whilst sleeping. Circadian rhythm can cause a large drop around 2am so if you are already low or have blood sugar issues it can cause shaking, sweating, hot flushes etc.

[@marcjames3487]

Good tip I'll try that

[@alexzbiciak]

Interesting. Been 2 am wake daily since a mandated medical injection or be unemployed. Will adjust to try this before bed and see as melatonin, magnesium biglycinate, and prescriptions don't solve the daily issue.

[@littlevoice_11]

@Alexander Zbiciak I have it in a homemade hot chocolate with raw cacao powder, mct, cinnamon and Ashwaganda in unsweetened coconut or almond milk. Stevia to taste. Valerian, chamomile and passion flower can also help.

[@tinaNaction]

My first time doing IF no probs with sleeping…slacked off and resetting and now I am not sleeping through the night and def sweating I also am not doing IF as well as I was when I first started in Nov. In Nov when I 1st started I ate better and fewer snacks. May be that also makes a difference.

[@fishnlady]

@@obasak Aug 25, 2023 Some people with diabetes may choose to use stevia instead of sugar to prevent a spike in blood sugar levels. Pure stevia has no effect on blood glucose. But added chemicals like maltodextrin and dextrose in the sugar substitute can raise your blood glucose level.

[@bookzdotmedia]

I fast from 6pm to 8am everyday and add 1 teaspoon of MCT powder and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil in my last meal, and around 9pm or so, i notice what feels like growth hormones every time. Not sure what is going on, but feel 20 years younger. Also noticed i am not hungry at all anymore,, i only eat now to get my minerals. The first week i lost 3 belt notches, and now it stabilized off. I am sure i could do a 24 hour fast and not even feel hunger. Typical meals: 8am - Steak, Egg, & Cheese sub; lunch - Chopped steak and salad, dinner: Chopped chicken, beans, slaw, mct powder, coconut oil. No snacks in between.

[@migueljordan100]

Key note - when using MCT oil in hot liquids like coffee ☕ and tea. Make sure that you allow the coffee or tea 🍵 to cool down for a bit so that the MCT oil isn't broken down and you still get maximum benefits while avoiding upsetting your stomach.😊💖💯

Coffee should be below 150 degrees fahrenheit. At 150, the temperature screws with the mct and can also cause stomach upset. If you can't wait for it to cool before adding, I just add a little extra cold water to my black coffee, which drops the temperature down about 10 degrees, to approximately 135-140 Fahrenheit.

[@davesmith7906]

Wow this explains a lot, I’ve been using a tsp in black coffee right from the pot at 7am and continue my fasts daily till about 12 or 1pm, I always seem to have the gut issues. The good part it keeps me clean bad part is it’s uncomfortable. I'll try it tonight with a decaf. Thx

@@dylanfredrick8393 he never says what you should do, he just points out to studies, like every new study it is still in the peer review phase, so, after a while the data starts to repeat, that is the one that is more likely to be true for everyone, also, there is not good and bad here, is good and better, you can't implement everything at once, that would be nuts, the tldr for what to do for keto and if, do Mediterranean keto and do some 16h fast every once in a while, not too frequently or changing breakfast and dinner as the skipped meal constantly, that is enough, the rest are things that make marginal improvements compared to this, good to know, but not too relevant for most people.

@@susanh6807 I honestly think he puts so little info in every video, I understand why (papers have a lot of testing and not very long conclusions) but it is very basic info, super easy to follow, and I dont have a healthcare professional background, only school biology, one of my teachers explained to us why the keto diet worked for fat loss, that was even before it was called keto at large, she explained how the digestion of fats also take more energy than the digestion of carbs, so, at the same calorie level the body naturally worked more and liberated more heat, and our body takes that and created the carbs it needed, separating the fats, instead of using it directly, like carbs, that was before it was widely known all the other ways it helped (this was like 15 years ago)

[@kevindittler6524]

Have not seen or heard anything about how or when to use it if you are actually strength training. Very hard to build muscle strength and size if you are fasting, that being said using a 18/6 ratio for fasting does keep the body lean if the Last meal is about 4-5 pm. Just makes it difficult to recover from your workout if you train in the evening & coffee in the afternoon pre workout will disrupt your sleep. I’d like to see more information on athletic applications instead of just a fasting / weight reduction program.

I have an electric milk frother so most mornings I froth up heavy cream and MCT oil to add to my coffee. I don't remember having a bad reaction to MCT oil but I was eating keto for a while before I added it. I found that I would have ketones of around 2 later in the day so I think it worked for ketosis as well. I have been adding a 17 to 36 hour fast once a week lately, but with the caveat of having one or two MCT coffees in that time. Not exactly a fat fast as the internet defines but not exactly a true fast.

I am conflicting between MCT and Olive oil containing beneficial Olaic acid. Don't want to use both because this may be to much for the gall bladder. Any suggestions?

[@cindidennis3258]

I don't know, but I'm just starting 1 tsp. Grass fed & finished butter and 2 tsp. unrefined organic coconut oil. It bothers me a little that MCT oil is highly refined.

Great video Thank You ! Could you pls a video on fasting 36h, 48h, 72h and plys about fasting (dry fadting, water fasting, water and coffee, herbs & spices) so we can have an updated idea about what is possible and tolerated. .i do everyday 20h-23h intermittent fadting with 1 coffe and some water. I try to do 4 to 5 times a month 48h with water, a cup of coffe and 1 to 2 times a month 72h or plus. But my my biggest problem is ... vaping 6mg nicotine. .. i still can't quitt :( .. too much stress and comitments Thank you for your efforts and keep up the good work !

I would love a video on this.

But how much do you take?

I workout fasted, towards the end of my fast. It sounds like taking mct oil before a workout/towards the end of my fast would be a bad idea?

[@migueljordan100]

I would say that doing so would negate many of the benefits that you would otherwise have received by waiting until after your workout. But as Thomas says at times you can break this rule jus know that you normally want to wait until after you break your fast to intake the MCT or coconut oil.

[@jasonhurst8599]

Was wondering the same thing. Although the first several months into Keto/Carneto I would add French Vanilla flavoured MCT Oil powder to my Keto friendly pre workout drink to enhance the flavour, and I still lost a lot of weight, and never had any digestive issues. I actually forgot about this until just now.

[@jasonhurst8599]

@@migueljordan100 Makes sense. I think he could have broken it down a little more depending on what a person's main reason(s) is/are for Fasting. Like if your main (or only) goal is Body composition then YES/NO to MCT Oil pre-workout in a fasted state; If autophagy is your primary reason, then YES/NO; If Body Composition AND Autophagy are, then YES/NO; etc. That way things would have been more clear.

[@migueljordan100]

@@jasonhurst8599 yeah I understand brother, but he's always explaining this point almost In every other video. So I feel that he is coming from a perspective that his viewers are familiar with the base knowledge that he's been putting out over the past few years and doesn't want to take too much time away from the key points as to not sound redundant. Which is why I take the Liberty to help with fielding some inhouse questions to show love to both Thomas and my fellow viewers.

[@mingkee27]

How does the MCT oil capsules work? I have to bring some to work because I work 4-12 and IF starts at working hours

[@RAJOHN-ke7mc]

Many of these commenters complain too much. This video is only 9 mins and you feel it's too much Good grief. Just break up the video into digestible parts.

[@MonPetitLudo]

I'm not sure if I get it right, here: If I am to put some MCT oil on my morning coffee, it usually means that it comes after a 16 or 18 hours of fasting (for me), so I am breaking my fast with MCT oil... But, anyway, is it any different if I have my MCT/Coffee drink after only 8 hours of fasting? Isn't it always breaking my fast with MCT oil?

[@CocoNoir2020]

I was thinking the same

[@rmarty920]

Yes, so do what he recommends and do it at night at the beginning of your fast.

[@elsizzle2000]

@@rmarty920 yeah but Thomas also says MCT in the morning, before a workout AND at last meal. I'm confused by this as well

[@monetteathlete7078]

I wish someone would explain this. Also use it with my BPC to break my fast and he says no…..

[@tippymb]

@@CocoNoir2020 I'm thinking if he put time stamps on the videos would be helpful.

Which mct ? C8 or c8&c10 ?

[@casasecranks]

I need at least 48-72h to get my mmol beyond 1.0. And after a meal (under 20g carbs and max 1g/kg prot) i drop to 0.5mmols. To keep a high average of mmols throughout the week, I’d need a 96h fast to reach around 3mmols and then keep it well below the 50g carb mark. Is this normal? I understand that mct can boost ketone levels. But doesn’t it hinder the body’s own production of ketones? Besides health and longevity, I’m keto mainly to get to 8-10% body fat (currently at 15%) and also keeping a good performance at the gym (weight training) and on the bike (2x3h / week at intermediate/advanced level). Any help?

[@casasecranks]

@@delegate104 that’s great results. I think the issue with my levels were related with the fat-protein ratio. Now that fat is almost double the protein I can maintain higher mmol readings while still eating around 2000-2300 kcal a day, 6 days a week (1day I’m fasting). And since I burn around 3000 kcal a week exercising, I’m still at a good deficit

[@bellanicole4192]

Whats the best mct oil ?

[@John-Nada]

It's almost impossible without expensive lab testing to know if any particular oil is what it's claimed to be. Ordinary canned coconut milk is about 1/3 mct. Goat cheese has mcts too.

[@jpdoc5722]

I’ll move my MCT from AM coffee to my last meal instead ( oops, I’m on OMAD, due to 20:4 iF )

[@klevykids]

thank you!!!!

[@electronictrip]

i have plenty of my own fat to burn i dont need to add mct oil

If MCT oil is good during a fast, are exogenous ketones better?

[@junkkushi]

This is confusing. You said we should not use it to break up the fast, but then you also mentioned that we can use it before the workout in fasted state, which means it will break the fast ???

[@RAJOHN-ke7mc]

He mentions is all dependent on why you're fasting. Healing: dont use it Weight loss: use it
