Does MCT have any man-made chemicals in it? If your answer is no, is there any literature / studies to back it up?

From my understanding there are no chemicals in this MCT oil. It's just fat derived from coconuts and palm kernels.

This is what is on the bottle. I don't know if anything in it is man-made, but doesn't appear to me that there is. "MCT comes from glycerin and coconut/palm kernel oil. MCT Oil has naturally occurring fatty acids Caprylic Acid and Capric Acid." MCT was recommended to me by a MD that overseas my gym trainer who is in medical school. Hope this helps.

The label states, "Ingredient: 100% MCT Oil" "MCT Oil from glycerin and coconut/palm kernel oil"

I think any manufactoring process has traces of what it was made of, in this case my understanding it would be of cellulose. I have used and recommended DMSO for my patients for over thirty years - no complaints, its quite amazing!

I would just add that MCT is a by-product of processed coconut oil, it is not found anywhere in nature by itself. You do not get any of the Lauric Acid with a liquid coconut oil. Lauric is very beneficial and without it you are missing much. Why not just stick to regular solid coconut oil and mix it with something over 75 degrees F.

Yes, Source Naturals offers 100 mcg tablets. I don't know what these other people are talking about, but you can look on their website and see for yourself:http://www.sourcenaturals.com/products/GP1850Amazon should offer it somewhere, or perhaps try Whole Foods.

MCT oil has no coconut particles, fibers nor taste, it's basically tasteless. You get more oil per volume, more medium chain triglycerides for your money.

No. All MSM supplements are made from petrochemicals now. Bergstrom confirmed to me today that this Dr's Best brand uses the best OptiMSM distilled to 99.99% pure USA/some high-standard Japan sourced. Natural MSM is in grassfed animal proteins & rainwatered not irrigated or hothouse crops.

All MSM & DMSO supplements are now artificially synthesized from organic fossilized plant/animal petrochemicals not food. Dr's Best uses the best MSM supplement OptiMSM distilled to 99.99% pure USA/occasionally high-standard Japan sourced (100% pure would be a scientifically impossible exaggeration). Food-based MSM is in grassfed animal proteins and rainwatered not irrigated or hothouse crops :)

Everyone - this is what I want to know and I will be contacting the company to find out. I want to know what is NOT on the label nor on their website nor could the guy at Whole Foods give a definitive answer (he's waiting to hear back from me on this) when he spoke to the company.If they source from cows that are injected with rBST - I want nothing to do with it. It's important. Why would I drink what I won't eat in my beef?If anyone has heard from the company on this, I think all of us should know.

A question I too have wondered! I smell it too. The animal line of crane say (PCB free) but I don't see it anywhere on this one. I'd like to know the answer to thius too!

Hey Dude ... Vitamin K (as vitamin K2 from 45 mcg of MenaQ7 - made of fermented soybeans), cellulose, vegetable capsule, magnesium stearate (vegetable source), silicon dioxide. It's made up of dried ingredients in a cellulose capsule. Good Luck and Good Day.

To the best of my knowledge, it doesn't contain any. They sell a creatine product separately.

I did not see EDTA listed. Not sure if that is an abbreviation for something though. It is called "Pure"-ology, but it is definitely not. I do love it though. It is the only product I use that is not considered toxic free or organic.

Just my personal observation - while we love coconut oil, MCT oil is tasteless (at least for me), liquid at room temperature, and is odorless. While I don't object to the taste or smell of coconut oil, when you need an oil that does not have to be heated to get in a liquid state or you need taste-free, odor-free results, MCT is just right. As a massage oil it works great and actually absorbs and leaves less resdiue behind.And, as a supplement you don't have to get past the taste if you aren't a fan of coconut flavor.

Good question- 150 mcg is a tiny dose. I wouldn't buy this product because of its dilution. I can add my own water if I want a diluted product.

It is odd that oats are not listed which makes me think it is a labeling error. Since MCT is listed first, then that should be the primary ingredient but the fat content is listed at 3.2g per serving while the carb content is much higher at 26.4g. I agree that it would be best to contact the company for an answer. If you do, please let us know what you find out.

Nothing. It's just a branding. MCT oil is the same thing as "MCT-Lean" they are just focusing on the fat burning properties to market it.

Sorry we don't know about any made by another company and we are not aware of it having cancer causing chemicals.
