"I took a teaspoon daily for a month. Within 5 days, I noticed marked improvement in muscle fatigue and pain. Also, rid of mental fog and weakness. Easy to take in combination with powdered supplement and managed evening fat intake. At 30-day blood testing, triglycerides were back within normal range."

"You always make sure when you're taking MCT to start with a small dose. 1/2 teaspoon the first day, and if you have a sensitive stomach, you may want to do half a teaspoon for the week and then in another week, go up to one whole teaspoon. I think people trust stuff so fast that they don't realize when you put nutritional values in your body, it will shock your system because it's used to getting junk a lot of times. When you start trying to change your lifestyle, it takes time for everything to evaluate. You don't ever drink it on an empty stomach, put it in my coffee every day, and I love it, it gives me that extra boost and a clear mind. And I can tell if I have too much, so I cut it down. It's just getting your routine. And everyone is different, if it doesn't seem right with your system, don't take it. There's so many nutritional values that we need to be taking for health's sake. Life is only once! Just use common sense. No one's making you do it, you're trying something new. I hope you do your best!"

"Bought a very expensive powder MCT additive from one of the shopping channels by one of the doctors who is supposed to be the best. It took me 2 cups to figure out that it made me violently ill with a leftover stomachache for the rest of the day. On those days, I received no benefits that I was aware of and was feeling poorly, upper bellyache most of the day and into the next day. I left weeks between trying them, and it always happened immediately. Sent the whole thing back."

"I've been taking MCT for a week now. I started with half a top in water to see if I had a bad reaction. I did get a little bit of diarrhea the first 2 days as well as a little upset stomach, but it all went away by the third day. I've lost 3 lbs. so far. I have also cut my sugar intake, and I stop eating at 6 p.m. After that, I only have tea, coffee, or water. We'll see how it goes after a month or so."

"Broke out in a rash and developed a deep hacking cough as soon as I started using this supplement. Doctors could not find the cause of the rash, but the symptoms started shortly after I began taking MCT oil regularly."

"Been using MCT oil since 2017 at the age of 48, and it only did good things for me. Brain fog is gone, fatigue gone, no more getting up for the toilet at night, maybe because I sleep better. I lost weight too. I hear it is not for everyone, but for those who are able to have it, that’s a bonus!"

"My wife and I bought two bottles from different manufacturers, one glass, one plastic. We've been taking one TBSP three times a day for a couple of days, either in coffee, cold cocoa, or even straight. No serious side effects yet, but after four hours of sleep, I find myself writing this and looking into side effects, a bit of insomnia, I guess. We still need more time to determine how MCT treats us—feeling optimistic!"

"I had one dose in my coffee on Saturday, and it is Tuesday today, and I still have very bad diarrhea and pain in my stomach, and I can see my stomach expanded on one side. Never going to take MCT again."

"I was introduced to MCT in a coffee creamer. I have used it only one weekend, but I am happy with the energy increase! I am planning to continue. Also, I noticed that a long-time headache is much alleviated, so I am doubly pleased!"

"Took the recommended minimum dose of 1 teaspoon, and within 20 minutes, became dreadfully ill. I experienced horrendous stomach pain and started vomiting, very frightening indeed. Eventually, after a few hours, I suffered diarrhea and felt cold and shivery the whole night long. I still felt stomach pains the next day. Definitely would not recommend."

"Made me extremely anxious, panic attack. I had a tsp of MCT cocoa at 8 am, and at 8 pm I am still a nervous wreck with nausea and dizziness. I can't wait until this is over, never taking this again!"

"Took it for two weeks. After a week, started getting sick as a dog. Foul stomach, diarrhea, tired. Can't wait to stop using it..."
