Description
OstroVit MCT oil is a nutritional supplement in liquid form that is a source of MCT fatty acids (medium-chain triglycerides). It is obtained from plant sources and is packaged in a BPA-free plastic bottle with a volume of 500 ml. Thanks to its neutral taste and smell, it easily fits into the daily diet without changing the taste of food or drink.
MCT fatty acids differ from long-chain fats in the way they are metabolized and are often used as a convenient source of fat in various dietary regimens. The product is suitable for vegans and people who prefer liquid supplements instead of capsules or tablets.
One package provides 39 servings.
