If you're gaining weight, you may not be taking the oil correctly, which could lead to weight gain. If that's the case, no need to worry, there is a simple fix.

Taking C8 MCT Oil Properly

  • Take C8 MCT oil on an empty stomach, an hour before eating. The oil needs time to convert into ketones, which will help to reduce your appetite.

  • Avoid adding butters, milks, or creams to your drink when taking the oil.

  • You can take your C8 MCT oil in a zero-calorie drink like black coffee, water, or plain and herbal tea. Another option is to take it straight off the spoon.

Serving Size Guidelines

Based on our experience with clients I recommend that you take C8 MCT as follows:

  • Your goal is to reach a full serving size of one tablespoon (15 ml) of C8 MCT oil to reach a ketone level of 0.5 mM BHB.

  • Start with a teaspoon (5 ml) and gradually increase to a full dose over three weeks. This approach helps avoid any negative symptoms or upset stomach.
