By Dr. Chad Walding, DPT, NativePath Co-Founder

Call it a silent epidemic.

An estimated one in four adults is afflicted with the condition known as metabolic syndrome, and many of them don't even know it.

The major component of this dangerous condition?

Belly fat.

At one time, we might have accepted abdominal weight gain as an inevitable fact of aging.

But we've now been put on notice that as our waistlines grow, so do our health risks.

Abdominal, or visceral, fat is of particular concern because it's a key player in a variety of health problems — including being linked to metabolic disturbances and increased risk for cardiovascular disease, immune dysfunction, increased risk of infectious illness and type 2 diabetes.

The dangers of belly fat make for yet another reason to adopt healthier eating and lifestyle habits.

“There are numerous ways to reverse the metabolic factors that cause abdominal weight gain,” says Dr. Chad Walding.

“The first is addressing one fat-burning nutrient that is often missing in the diets of older adults.”

According to Dr. Walding, one of the easiest ways to achieve weight loss and mitigate these risks is to incorporate more dietary fats into our daily diets.

“Certain healthy fats not only support optimal cardiovascular function, but MCTs, in particular, are proven to stabilize blood sugar levels, curb cravings and accelerate fat loss specifically in the abdominal region,” he continues.

Medium-chain triglycerides, or MCTs as they’re more commonly known, are a form of saturated fatty acid that’s typically extracted from coconut oil. 

This type of fat is also in palm oil, butter, and can also be man-made in liquid or powder supplement form, so you can easily add them to coffee or smoothies.

Here’s a look at how medium-chain fatty acids stack up compared to other dietary fats.

Short-chain fatty acids

► <6 carbon chain lengths

► Produced by bacteria in the gut via dietary fiber when dietary fiber is fermented

► Helps reduce inflammation and protect the digestive system

Medium-chain fatty acids

► 6-12 carbon atoms in length

► Can be found in foods like coconut oil

► Unlike other fatty acid chain lengths, MCTs go directly from the gut to the liver and can be quickly converted to ketones

Long-chain fatty acids

► 13-22 carbon chain lengths

► Can be found in olive oil, fish, nuts, avocado, and meats

► Some LCTs (like Omega-3s), and can provide cardiovascular benefits

The secret behind what gives MCTs their powerful benefits lies within it’s unique structural make up.

Unlike other forms of fat, MCTs chain length gives it the ability to act as a fast-acting energy source for the body. 

Since they don’t require to be processed by digestive enzymes, the body and brain use them almost immediately.

On the other hand, long-chain triglycerides (LCTs) and longer-chain fatty acids like those found in olive oil and avocados have more carbon atoms and require more energy to process.

“MCTs go straight to the liver to be metabolized, and they won’t be stored as fat—therefore, they’re quickly absorbed and provide a fast-acting energy source for the body and the brain.”

Healthy fats from the foods we eat are essential to our trillions of cells for the optimal function of just about every bodily process — including the hormones that power our metabolism. 

This concept is nothing new. 

From a biological and evolutionary perspective, our bodies have always relied on fat for our existence. 

A wide body of research now points to one unique fatty acid in particular for its remarkable promise in improving metabolic function:

Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) — More specifically, the MCTs naturally derived from coconut oil.

Today, clinical studies using coconut-derived MCTs show great potential for directly improving weight loss through a variety of pathways, including:

✓ Accelerate Fat Loss & Reduce Waist Circumference:

One study had participants consume either MCT oil or olive oil to see which fat would help them lose more body fat. Researchers noticed that those consuming MCT oil also reduced their body weight, lowered their total fat mass, and decreased abdominal fat and waist circumference*.

✓ Target Belly Fat:

In a double-blind, controlled study examining the long-term effects of medium-chain triglycerides consumption on overall health, researchers discovered weight loss was “significantly greater in the MCT group.” They also noticed that subcutaneous fat in the abdominal region was also reduced with MCTs*.

✓ Appetite Control:

A study published in the journal Physiology & Behavior examined the effects of MCT oil on satiety (the feeling of being full) and food intake. It found that MCT oil had even greater satiating properties than raw coconut oil itself*.

✓ Help Regulate Blood Sugar:

MCT oil helps balance out your blood glucose levels. This, in turn, decreases oxidative stress and inflammation in your body. High blood sugar has been associated with major diseases because it causes inflammation. According to a study, diets high in MCTs increased insulin sensitivity in people suffering from type 2 diabetes*, thereby improving their prognosis. One small Chinese study of 40 people with high blood sugar found that those who consumed MCTs daily not only had significant reductions in body weight, but also in insulin resistance*.

✓ Prevent Future Weight Gain

Another body of research shows that since MCTs are processed so much quicker than long-chain triglycerides, they have a very low tendency to deposit as body fat*. When study participants were given MCTs in one trial, the results conveyed that the subjects increased their ability to burn fat, improved their energy expenditure, and lost more adipose body fat compared to those who didn’t take MCTs — and kept it off.

Studies have shown that in just a few weeks, people taking MCTs dropped more pounds, losing weight around their hips and waist as well as the more dangerous fats around our organs (visceral) compared to those having other healthy fats*.

In fact, abdominal obesity (aka belly fat) is one of the trademark characteristics of a condition called metabolic syndrome — which is a known precursor to immunity malfunction and other chronic diseases.

The most astonishing finding is that many participants using MCTs who were diagnosed with metabolic syndrome at the beginning of the trial were cleared of this diagnosis once the trial ended.

“These results are so promising that experts now consider MCTs to be effective not only for preventing weight gain… But also, for unlocking the key metabolic pathways for easier weight loss to occur.”

The benefits of coconut-derived MCTs don’t stop at weight management. 

Further evidence shows us that MCTs may also be a powerful catalyst for a variety of cognitive and cardiovascular benefits as well.

In addition to supporting healthy weight loss, clinical trials have also demonstrated that MCTs can improve cognitive vitality through a variety of pathways, including:

✓ Improve Memory & Mild Cognitive Impairment

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is an intermediate stage of mental decline before dementia.

When MCT oil was given to adults with mild cognitive impairment, they experienced significant improvement in memory recall within 90 minutes of taking their first dose*. 

✓ Neuroprotective Benefits

MCTs may offer neuroprotective benefits for a wide range of diseases including dementia, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, stroke, epilepsy, and traumatic brain injury*. 

✓ Delay Brain Aging

MCTs are thought to help delay brain aging by providing extra fuel to repair brain cell damage, especially when combined with a high-fat diet*.

✓ Alleviating Depression

MCTs have been shown to be helpful for depression.

Research has deemed coconut oil an “antidepressant functional food” due to its unique combination of MCTs and antioxidants*.

✓ Increase Brain Energy

Taking MCT oil has been found to increase brain energy by 8 to 9%*.

✓ Optimize Intestinal Flora

MCT oil can help optimize your intestinal flora — surprisingly important to brain health*.

Among other things, your good bacteria produce dozens of neurotransmitters, including more than 90% of your total serotonin and 50% of your dopamine*.

Additional evidence has demonstrated that MCTs may also be a powerful catalyst for a variety of cardiovascular and immunity-boosting benefits as well. As the research behind MCTs continues, science has proven this unique fatty acid can serve as a powerful catalyst for a variety of cardiovascular and immunity-boosting benefits as well.

✓ Promote Cholesterol Health

Since MCT’s boost weight loss, this in turn helps reduce your risk of heart disease. Moreover, a study of 24 overweight participants found that taking MCTs for 29 days reduced total cholesterol by 12.5%*. The same study also found better reductions in LDL or “bad” cholesterol when MCTs were added to their diet.

✓ Provide Antimicrobial Benefits

Studies show that medium-chain fatty acids can act as natural antibiotics, which means they boost your immune system to better fend against harmful bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa.

✓ Destroys Bad Bacteria & Viruses

Due to its chemical structure, these fatty acids are drawn to and easily absorbed into most bacteria and viruses. MCTs enter the lipid membrane and weaken it to the point that it eventually breaks open, expelling the microorganism’s insides and causing imminent death. White blood cells then quickly dispose of the terminated invader’s remains.

Overall, the clinical evidence is clear — MCTs have proven to be effective for helping people restore cognitive vitality and lose unwanted weight. 

Not to mention, improving many of the key health markers associated with maintaining a higher quality of life as we age. 

But before you go adding scoops of raw coconut oil into your morning coffee, there are several key drawbacks that make daily coconut oil use a bit challenging.

X Raw coconut oil isn’t as quick and convenient to use on a daily basis.

In order to incorporate coconut oil into your diet, it requires heating to melt it, or a blender to thoroughly mix it into most recipes. Not to mention, oils are messy and tough to clean up. Generally, if it’s not convenient to use on a daily basis, the chances that you will actually reap the benefits of coconut-derived MCTs are slim.

X Pure MCT oil causes digestive distress.

Many people experience gut distress (diarrhea or “the runs”) when taking oil-based forms of MCTs. Due to its concentration, users of liquid MCT oil are warned to stick with small doses as the oil-form can cause uncomfortable digestive issues including cramps and irregular bowel movements. On the other hand, the powder form provides a controllable “slowed” release of MCTs, making it much more tolerable for your gut. Thus you can take greater amounts of MCTs, and even double the body & brain benefits compared to the conventional liquid oil-form.

X You have to really love the taste of coconuts.

Coconut oil has a very potent flavor that will make your coffee, smoothies, tea, and other recipes taste like coconut (and nothing else) - adding it to just about anything can create an overpowering taste and aroma, therefore individuals who aren’t fond of the coconutty-flavor will likely find this to be an unsuitable option.

Simply add 1 scoop in your morning coffee for a deliciously creamy latte-like drink with incredible health benefits

► Improve your metabolism and boost energy

► Support weight loss and curb cravings

► Promote brain vitality, focus and memory

“If you want to experience the body and brain benefits of elevated ketones (without having to eat spoonfuls of raw coconut oil to get there), you need a MCT powder that solves the quality and convenience equation.”

At NativePath, we took a few extra steps in order to create the most absorbable powder form of MCTs and craft them into an incredibly delicious and familiar format you’ll look forward to using everyday.

Evidence suggests that using powder-form MCTs instead of the conventional “liquid-oil” form is the superior choice for a few reasons...

Unlike liquid-oil MCT products, using a high-quality powder format allows for easier digestion and less gut distress. This allows the body and brain to utilize the MCTs more efficiently.

This makes reaping the benefits of MCTs far easier than compared to messy, greasy oils, too… 

And a far more delicious and irresistibly creamy way to boost your morning coffee ritual!

Simply mix a scoop in your coffee to activate your metabolic & cognitive pathways, uplift your energy, boost weight loss, and fuel brain function.

In addition, our MCT + Collagen Coffee Creamers contain over 5 grams of 100% coconut-derived MCTs along with 2.5 grams of pure grass-fed collagen.

While it’s true that many experience the powerful benefits of MCTs with their first scoop, you can maintain the long-lasting benefits and reach full results with MCTs if you…

• Take it consistently every morning. Simply add it to your morning coffee first thing when you wake up (or try it in your tea, matcha latte or in a breakfast smoothie).
• Take the proper dose. By using one scoop every morning, you’re fueling your body with 7 grams of MCTs a day, which ensures that your body will absorb the most effective amount of MCTs first thing so that maximum results can be achieved.
• Take it for the proper amount of time. Studies done on MCTs show that the longer you use MCTs, the greater (and longer-lasting) the benefits will be. In other words, taking a scoop here and there will only scratch the surface when it comes to improving your metabolism, energy and brain vitality in the long run.

Consistency is key. 

Which is why I recommend to:

• Start with at least 3 jars of NativePath MCT + Coffee Creamer at a time. (With 4 different flavors to choose from, it’s easy to find your favorite!)
• And you can stock up on an entire YEAR'S supply if they want to be completely stocked up (while also taking advantage of our best-bargain bulk 45% off price).

• Then try 1 scoop in your coffee every morning for a period of at least 90 days.
