Both Columbia and McGill Universities confirmed studies that individuals who consume increasing amounts ketones showed significant decreases in body fat and weight. He found that communities that consume large amounts of — goat cheese sheeps milk, acacia, and coconut oil — each of which are among the largest sources of MCTs, are also among the longest living communities in the world (1).
Top sources of MCTs are coconut and coconut products - coconut oil, coconut butter and full fat coconut milk; palm kernel oil; and in lesser amounts- butter, milk, yogurt and cheese 3).
