Re: Fasting with MCT Oil (Coconut oil)

vegetable juice is not 100% glucose. As coconut oil is not 100% MCT. Nor is ms 100% glucose. Ingesting simple sugars everyday is not good for you. we can probably agree on that.

MCT oil is 100% MCT oil. And in terms of digestion i'd say digesting a glass of vegetable juice would be more taxing on your system than less than a tablespoon of MCT oil (the tablespoon of MCT oil delivering more usable energy as well).

I don't assume you're a newbie at all. I don't know anything about you except for what you have posted. I'm not a nutritional scientist but i don't agree with what you are saying. Try eliminating Sugar from your diet for a week and see how you feel. If the purpose of a fast is to allow the body to heal itself than eliminating Sugar and replacing your body's energy requirements with an alternative source of fuel is a fast. All the systems that use glucose get a rest. Pretty much your entire body, all tissue, brain, muscles. including your digestive system.. and if your digestive track is full of parasites and fungus like candida your body will probably thank you for the alternative fuel.

MCT oil will feed you. Your body will readily consume ketones as a source of fuel. And lots of other great things can happen when it does.
