since medium chain triglycerides are saturated fats, they promote higher test levels. When i used them, weights and recovery was so much eaiser. I stop taking them because i got tired of the coconut oil taste. Soon, im going to be using coconut milk powder soon, which is 60% MCT'S. My protein flavoring skills were bad at the time. Now i know how to combine its taste nicely. I think mct's are very usefull; i use flax at the moment, but really want make a transition or combination at the least.
If you ever heard of the story of how unsaturated fats came about so "healthy" The paint industry use to run off being made out of unsaturated fats. Profits were good. Someone came up with something that revolutioned the paint making process, and unsaturated fats became worthless at the time. Since then a bunch of studies were popularized to promote unsaturated fats.
Unsatured fats have a really bad smell over time and are not stable in high heat. They have the potential to turn into trans fat when cooking with them. I use only cold pressed flax oil and keep it in the refrigerator at all times.
MCT's are more readily turned into energy and more prone to raising test levels. MCT's really make more sense to me. Although, they may not be good for losing weight because of their potential to slow down metabolism and promote anabolism.
for hard gainers, big thumbs up to MCT's, one from organic coconut oil or coconut milk powder.
