Question 2

How is this different than normal jarred coconut oil you buy from like Trader Joe’s?

Accepted Answer

The difference between MCT oil and coconut oil you buy from Trader Joes is the price at $9.95 and MCT oil which is more concentrated can cost $15 to $30 a bottle depending on the brand. Coconut oil  has MCTs in it, about 62 to 65 percent and concentrated MCT oil is almost entirely MCTs. Trader Joe's coconut oil is a very good quality and I use it in all my cooking and the MCT Oil I use by itself or in my bulletproof coffee.

There are four different kinds of MCTs, which differ depending on the number of carbons there are connected to the fat molecules (this ranges between 6 to 12 carbons long). The MCTs in coconut oil are made up of about 50 percent of one kind (lauric acid), so the fact that coconut oil is mostly just one type of MCT is one reason that some people prefer concentrated MCT oils more. “MCT oils” usually have all four types of MCTs that can be difficult to get from other foods.

Coconut oil is one of the best sources of lauric acid as you can see, which many studies have shown has antibacterial, antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Although about ninety percent of the fats found in coconut oil are saturated, a high percentage is not the very short chain MCTs that have less carbons (lauric acid has 12). Personally, I prefer MCT oil altough I do use the Trader Joes Coconut Oil in all my cooking.  Hope this helps.

Question 3

Still waiting for this to arrive and noticed lead warning California state???

Accepted Answer

All of Nature’s Way’s products comply with California Proposition 65 (Prop 65). Prop 65, the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, is a rule which states that any product containing specific ingredients associated with cancer or birth defects in amounts greater than specified by the state must have a warning label if sold in California. Our products are tested for lead to ensure they meet Prop 65 standards and should not have this warning associated with them. We are working with Amazon to have this error corrected.
