The basis of the ketogenic diet are fats. As in all cases, however, not all types of fat are proper and recommended. It should be remembered that in the case of a ketogenic diet, fat is the most important source of energy. It is important, therefore, to choose the fat added to the dishes to pay attention to the fulfillment of this function. We do not care that fat will be stored and put aside for later. The fat is to be used on an ongoing basis, it is a source of energy for basic life functions, physical exercises, etc. It is to replace the glucose that until now had served this function. Supporters of the keto diet, try to take as much fat as possible in a natural form (eg in the form of fatty meat), most often choose foods rich in saturated fat and omega 3 (eg cold water fish). If they decide on the so-called added fats choose those rich in MCT or medium-chain triglycerides. The fats suitable for the KETO diet are those rich in MCT. That is why in this category we have collected a natural source of MCT (i.e. all kinds of coconut oils) and pure MCT powder, which can be an addition eg to protein nutrients that require enrichment in fats.
