Rial, S. A., et al. (2016). Gut microbiota and metabolic health: The potential beneficial effects of a medium chain triglyceride diet in obese individuals. Although it is an MCT, lauric acid behaves like a long-chain triglyceride (LCT) in terms of digestion. LCTs are saturated fats that have more than 12 carbon atoms. This means that the body digests lauric acid in the same way as other saturated fats. A review from 2018 noted that coconut oil may be useful in preventing hair damage due to grooming or ultraviolet (UV) light exposure. However, the author notes that further studies are necessary to confirm this effect. However, only males participated in this study, so further research is necessary to confirm this effect.a b Kumar, Nirmalya (2009). India's Global Powerhouses. Harvard Business Press. pp.136–8.

Research from 2016 found that the brains of people with Alzheimer’s were able to use ketones at the same level as people without Alzheimer’s. Ketones, therefore, can provide an alternative energy source for the brains of people with Alzheimer’s. Medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil and coconut oil are two oils that have a variety of uses. Although similar, they both have their own benefits and health risks. Maher, T., et al. (2019). Food intake and satiety response after medium-chain triglycerides ingested as solid or liquid. MCTs are a form of saturated fat. However, MCTs have a shorter chain of carbon atoms than some other saturated fats. Due to their shorter length, MCTs are rapidly digested and transported directly to the liver for use as energy.

Additionally, certain studies into the benefits of coconut oil may use 100% MCT coconut oil, when most coconut oils contain 13⁠–⁠14% MCTs.

Dental health Additionally, the body can convert MCTs into ketones, which are substances created by the liver when it breaks down a lot of fat. The body can use ketones as a source of energy for the brain in place of sugar or glucose.
