MCT OIL

[nate225]

This is true but sometimes research has its flaws we need to look carefully at such things as who is behind the funding? You will be surprised to find how many papers showing favorable results of margarine that are funded by vegetable oil companies. This can swing both ways though.... for more information check out "Food Politics", by Marion Nestle.

That said good research is good research. A true scientific study that seeks to eliminate bias & confounding variables won't be influenced by who's paying the bill! :nod:

Good call on that I thought I'd also link this Nate to give you an idea of my train of thought: http://blog.hcfama.org/2010/09/16/studi ... disclosed/

Maybe it's time to lay off the natural stuff, the THC seems to be causing paranoia! :pfft: Just teasing Elite! :grin:

HAHA, its not so much paranoia, its just that i don"t believe everything I read , even the stuff I look at needs to be questioned.

Paranoia breeds awareness huh?! :grin:

^^ Read the link.

I'd support disclosure of research funding.

Makes sense and should have no bearing on outcomes anyway.

Anyway back to MCT's! :grin:

Where can you buy this from?

I see punch supplements have pvl mct oil for around 70 bucks for a litre!!! :shock:

Surely you can get it cheaper than that somewhere??

[tomsammce]

i got mine from punch a while back but was a lesser well known brand than pvl, a litre should last you quite a while though.

Never really bought into the saturated fat hysteria. Hard to believe that this component of the human diet, that is naturally occuring, and has been consumed in significantly larger quantities for majority of human history is somehow inherently dangerous. I'll go with mother nature on this one.
