What it is

Medium chain triglyceride (MCT) oil powder is made by combining MCT oil with a carrier, such as starch or maltodextrin. MCT oil is a type of fat derived from coconut or palm kernel oil. The powder form makes it easier to incorporate into dry food products.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add MCT oil powder as a source of fat and for its texture-enhancing properties. It is often used in powdered drinks, protein bars, and baked goods. It can also be found in some coffee creamers and snack foods.

Health notes

MCT oil powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. MCTs are fats that are quickly absorbed and used for energy by the body. Some studies suggest potential benefits for weight management and cognitive function, but more research is needed. JECFA has evaluated MCTs and established an acceptable daily intake.

Allergen info

Medium chain triglyceride oil powder is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
