ANECDOTE

Christmas Episode Framing

David Jockers shares that this episode was released on Christmas and greets listeners.
He frames the episode as his top MCT oil hacks to stop cravings and burn fat.

INSIGHT

C8 Is The Fastest Ketone Source

C8 (caprylic acid) MCT is the fastest medium-chain fat to convert into ketones and cellular energy.
It requires far fewer metabolic steps than glucose or long-chain fats, raising blood ketones quickly to fuel brain and mitochondria.

INSIGHT

Different MCTs Behave Very Differently

Not all MCTs are equal: C12 (lauric) is slower and needs more bile, while C8 is fastest.
Coconut oil contains a mix of MCTs, but isolated C8 yields quicker ketone benefits than whole coconut oil.
