Viva Naturals Organic MCT Oil, 32 fl oz – MCT Oil for Coffee, USDA Organic, Non-GMO, Paleo Certified & Keto Friendly, Supports Energy & Mental Clarity

So, first things first, this MCT oil is wonderful! Gives me energy, keeps me alert, keeps me feeling happier and focused throughout the day! Plus, the price is phenomenal for a bottle of this size! The only thing I hate about this, is the plastic spout. I get it, it's supposed to help with spillage and whatnot, but it's doing the exact opposite. This is what I went through for the first week: I tried to squeeze the bottle gently to get some out, but it wouldn't budge. So I applied a tad more pressure, and all of a sudden, SPLAT! That one shot comes out like a bat out of hell, and none on my tablespoon! On my countertop yes, but not my tablespoon! So I'd get annoyed, clean it up, and silently curse the spout to hell. I tried different amounts of pressure, tried to make the hole in the spout bigger, so I wouldn't have to squeeze it so hard to get some out, but nothing I did worked, it still shot out! So now, I have to take the lid off to pour it in my tablespoon. And of course, it's still messy, and I'm always wiping off the bottle, but at least it's not a surprise explosion like with the lid on, lol. But at the end of the day, it's all worth it to me as someone who highly values her MCT oil. I'd still recommend to anyone, mess and all!

The oil itself is completely flavorless, which makes it perfect for adding to my morning coffee, smoothies, or even drizzling over meals. It blends smoothly and gives me a steady, sustained boost without any jitters or crashes. The 32 fl oz size is also a great value and lasts a long time. If you’re looking for a pure, reliable MCT oil to support focus, energy, or a keto lifestyle, this one is a winner. I Highly recommended!

Bulletproof Coffee. Dave Asprey. Look it up. This isn't his MCT oil, which I'm sure is spectacularly better, but I'll use the Pareto principle (80-20 Rule) and settle for a much less expensive version for a slightly lowered benefit. Perhaps I'll upgrade when I'm more of a genius and fabulously wealthy... ;) So, I put this in my morning protein smoothie, which I make cold with pre-brewed coffee that is chilled... Wait, what is MCT Oil? Medium Chain Triglyceride Oil. Basically, it is specially refined coconut oil, where they isolate only the MCT portion of the oil. I'll let you look up why medium chain triglycerides are fantastic. But they ARE fantastic! Worth the read. So what does it do? Dave would say it is brain- fuel. Since our brains are made up mostly of fat, our brain naturally wants (healthy) fats for food. And MCT is some of the best possible oil/fat for that purpose. Plus, MCT has a benefit of being self-preserving, unlike many oils which go rancid (or oxidize) rapidly. Rancid oils are actually sort of toxic, in that they start to have damaging effects instead of beneficial ones. Kind of like the difference between eating a nice juicy steak...or 3 day old roadkill. And yes, I think that's an accurate analogy. How did it work for me? Well, true enough, with the coffee and protein, I do have clear-headed mornings, and I feel energized (provided I get enough sleep the night before!). I have noticed that I don't seem to be hungry as early, and I attribute that to the "full" or satiation effect of the oil. Fats satisfy our hunger needs, because they are valuable to the body. (Even bad fats satisfy, but it's not good for us). Will I buy this again? Absolutely. Probably have a bottle of this in my pantry forever now. And I also have virgin organic cold-pressed (I think) coconut oil as well, which I use for cooking, eating (straight), and use on my skin. MCT Oil is for eating (drinking) in my smoothie, as brain fuel. I've never used Viva Labs before, but happy with them, and will be alert if they have other products I want. The bottle is high quality, and the cap stays tightly closed. Very pleased overall, everything is positive. Glad I chose them for this, and glad this does what I got it for! Taste is faint, not very strong anything. Texture is like a thin mineral oil (viscosity if you want to be technical). As a side note, if I needed a lubricant for the bedroom, I would grab this before the unrefined coconut oil. Not sure how it works with condoms, have not used this with them, so if you are relying on them and this, do your homework on compatibility...might eat some kinds or others.

This is my first experience with any MCT oil. Took my first tablespoon of this this morning on an empty stomach. After about five minutes I could feel that it had clearly gotten into my system. Was surprised it was so quick. Seems to be pretty potent. The lid is clearly made to help inject and blend the product into a beverage. You cannot squeeze the bottle gently enough to simply dispense the product into a measuring spoon. Probably blew a couple tablespoons down my sink before I finally just took off the lid and poured it. Many screw on lids are of a standard configuration and used across products. I'll have to try to find one on something else. With the product, I'm pretty happy.

Great deal

I’ve been using Viva Naturals pure coconut oil every day, and it has truly transformed my routine. I love all things natural, and I use this oil in so many ways that it has become indispensable. I take three baths a day and then rub it all over my body; my skin has never felt so soft and hydrated. In the mornings, I take a big tablespoon on an empty stomach, and sometimes I mix it into my smoothies with flaxseed and almond milk. I feel lighter, more energetic, and I know I’m taking care of my health from the inside out. For me, there’s nothing like pure coconut oil: it’s versatile, natural, and truly wonderful. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a healthy product for their skin and daily wellness.H

After doing a lot of research on MCT oils, I determined that this would be an ideal product to bring into my daily diet. My family has some history with dementia, and once you notice it going, it's well on its way. Additionally, caffeine doesn't hit me the way it does for others. It doesn't wake me up at all, and I can drink 3 cups of coffee and still fall asleep in 5 minutes. Now that I'm onto my third bottle, I finally decided to write a reflective view over the past several months. First, this is a huge bottle, and so going through it takes some time. It's basically flavorless and odorless, and doesn't impart a greasy feeling in the mouth. There is no aftertaste either. Though it can take a few days to get used to having the oil in the coffee, it actually brings out some of the flavor profile of the coffee in a very interesting and good way. As for the effect of the MCT oil, I have no idea what the long run will be or what it would have been without it. What I do know is that I clear the morning fog a lot faster and I hit my top energy level much earlier in the morning. On the occasion that I'm away and don't get it, that's when I notice it most. Not in a craving kind of way, but just missing it, like the morning isn't really complete. I think I'll stick with the MCT for the long run and hope this company keeps making it the way they have. Additional note: A friend is using this as an additive for her son who has moderate autism, and she says she and the teachers have noticed some very big differences in his processing and social abilities.

Great stuff. Great price. Great bottle! Packaged well, and the bottle design is flawless. It comes with two caps, one traditional cap style, and one hinged with a functional pour spout that prevents getting oil ALL over the bottle and ultimately EVERYTHING else like some other brands I've used in the past. Can't beat the price. Unfortunately, I cannot give a qualitative review as to the quality, as my testing capabilities are limited and any attempt to do so would be highly speculative. However, there is nothing obviously different (good/bad) about this verses competitor products. I will be purchasing regularly! :) ---------Opinion/Observation on overall performance balance for the constrained budget. -------- I think that the largest gain/loss is going to be your overall dietary consumption of quality fats, and reduction in carbs consumed and removal of sugars . E.g, it doesn't matter if your consuming an "metabolically optimized C8 isolated MCT oil" in the morning if you loading up on low quality fats in the afternoon, or if your other ducks are out of line (read: sleep, exercise and greater diet). Your better off spending less on your MCT, and more on your other needs to optimize your equation. In my personal case, I find being able to liberally use a cheap MCT (Viva) in larger quantities dynamically as needed throughout the day to keep myself energized and focused on the task at hand is a much better solution for efficiency than having to "ration" out a C8 isolate. Though I probably spend just as much if not more by using it this way, by being able to consume at a higher quantity, overall performance is greater in this case. Additionally, when consuming with other foods and metabolic efficiency and flavour is not as paramount (or when coconut would taste good), I'll opt for a quality coconut oil, as its also marginally cheaper per ounce. (about 13-15$/32oz compared to 18-20$/32oz for MCT). I have used HealthWorks Coconut oil in the past, and it was absolutely delicious. I recently got Kirkland (as on inspection it seemed to have the same qualities) for pennies on the dollar; but it tastes burnt, so I'm not sure if it was a batch issue, warehouse storage, or simply there processing methods but its defiantly not up to par in a taste test. I'll most likely try Viva in the future, as I've been impressed with them so far. Takeaway: Great product if you like to use a lot of MCT! Just make sure your micros (vitamins and minerals) are in check if you exceed the 50% fat macro level. :)

This product has exceeded my expectations in terms of both taste and effectiveness. One of the main reasons I decided to try this MCT oil was its potential weight management benefits. I have been trying to shed a few pounds. I found that when I incorporated this oil into my reduced-calorie diet and increased my physical activity, I saw noticeable results. The body processes the medium-chain triglycerides in this oil differently, which can aid in weight management. Another benefit I experienced was increased energy support. I have been following a low-carb diet, and this oil helped provide my brain with the energy it needed, even without the usual supply of carbs and sugar. It helped me stay focused and energized throughout the day. What I love most about this MCT oil is it's virtually odourless and tasteless. I've developed a discriminating palate, and I appreciate that I can enjoy the benefits of MCT oil without any overpowering flavours or smells. I have been using it in sauces, keto drinks, and smoothies, and it blends seamlessly without altering the taste of my favourite recipes. One of my favourite ways to use this oil is by adding a tablespoon to my morning coffee. It gives me the perfect kick-start to my day and provides much-needed fuel for cellular energy production. It's a great alternative to traditional creamers or sweeteners. Lastly, I love that this MCT oil is made from 100% organic coconuts. It is free of fillers, outside flavours, and additives, which gives me peace of mind knowing that I am consuming a high-quality product. It is also Certified USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified, further reinforcing its quality.

Works great for diet and work outs

Great product

It taste very smooth in coffee and smoothies. I have ordered this several times.
