I've been using Liquigen Emulsified MCT Oil 250ml for a few months now, and I must say, it's been a game-changer. I have a condition that makes it hard for me to digest regular fats, and since I started using this, I've noticed a significant improvement in my energy levels. I take it in the mornings with my breakfast and it adds a smooth texture to oatmeal, coffee and tea. I appreciate that it is a quick energy source; I feel much more alert and energized throughout the day. However, I have experienced some mild side effects like diarrhea and upset stomach sometimes, but nothing too severe. I've been careful to start with a small dose and gradually increase it, which seems to help. I'm curious to hear from others who have used this product — what have your experiences been like? Any tips for minimizing side effects? Also, has anyone tried mixing it with other foods or drinks?

I've been using MCT oil for about a month now as part of my ketogenic diet. I've heard it's great for weight management and brain function. However, I've also read about some side effects. Has anyone else tried it and is it really as effective as everyone says? I'm curious about other people's experiences. I take 4 tbsp daily and haven't noticed any side effects, but I'm wondering if I should know any other benefits.
