Adhering to a Ketogenic Diet is HARD

The rumors are true: The Keto Diet is exceptional to support daily energy, mental clarity, stamina and recovery, a healthy metabolism, and of course, a healthy appetite.

For many folks, however, the Keto Diet is extremely hard to do and stick to because you don’t get to eat your favorite carbs – like breads, pasta, rice, desserts, or even fruits. And even many committed ketogenic dieters find it challenging to get into and stay in “ketosis”, a state of elevated ketone levels that’s the hallmark of the ketogenic diet and a key to the many health benefits associated with the Keto Diet.

Not to mention many people experience unfavorable side effects when they transition to the Keto Diet (a process called Keto Adaptation), such as the dreaded “Keto Flu,” which involves things like “Keto Bad Breath,” brain fog, feeling lethargic and the list goes on and on!

That’s the bad news; here’s the good:

Whether you’re a ketogenic dieter looking to support better, faster results…

Or you’re looking to enjoy some of the benefits of the Keto Diet – such as supporting more energy, better mental clarity and a healthy appetite – without having to give up all your favorite carbs…

The great news is that you can now support elevated ketone levels – and many of the benefits associated with them – with a very special type of fat, which can be used to support ketone production whether you’re on a Keto Diet or you simply prefer to consume more carbs.

We’ve followed the science to a tee, and we’re thrilled to announce what may be the biggest breakthrough in BioTRUST history: Keto Elevate™. It all starts with a very specific and pure form of “MCTs.” Allow us to explain.

What is MCT Oil Powder? What Are the Benefits of MCT Oil Powder?

Most people know there are different types of fats, such as saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated, which are classifications based on the presence and number of double bonds in a fatty acid’s carbon chains. In addition, fatty acids can vary in length and the number of carbon atoms they contain, ranging from 4 to 22 carbons (or more).

Most fats we eat are long-chain fatty acids, containing 16 – 18 carbon atoms. Medium-chain fatty acids, more commonly called medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), are fats with 6 – 10 carbons. And caprylic acid (C8) and capric acid (C10) are the two most prominent MCTs.

The main foods where you can find MCTs are coconut oil, palm kernel oil, butter, milk, yogurt, and cheese. For example, about 13 – 15% of the fat in coconut oil comes from the MCTs C8 and C10 (more on this below). Meanwhile, about 7 – 9% of the fat in butter comes from these very same MCTs.

MCTs are a perfect example that not all fats are created equal. Because of their shorter length, MCTs are metabolized and transported differently in the body than the more common long-chain fatty acids.

For example, MCTs are easily digested and rapidly absorbed. They are transported directly to the liver, and MCTs are quickly and efficiently burned for energy.^{Footnote †} Because they are transported directly to the liver, they bypass adipose (fat) tissue, which makes them less likely to be stored as fat.^{Footnote †} What’s more, while dietary fat typically provides 9 calories per gram, MCTs have a lower amount of useable energy, providing only 7 calories per gram.^{Footnote †}

What’s more, MCTs are readily converted to ketone bodies, even when someone is not on a ketogenic diet. In other words, MCTs can elevate ketone levels without the need for drastically cutting carbs.

Research has also shown that consumption of the MCT C8 leads to a greater rise in ketone levels than other MCTs, such as C10, or combinations of MCTs, such as you’d find in coconut oil. By way of promoting ketone production, C8 (aka caprylic acid) may help support:^{Footnote †}

• Energy levels
• Healthy appetite and weight managment
• Mental clarity and focus
• Athletic performance
• And more!

Whether you are looking to support ketone production as part of a ketogenic diet or simply prefer to consume more carbs, an MCT oil powder that ONLY contains C8 (caprylic acid) can provide the support you seek.

The Problems with Most MCT Oils

Sounds like a winner, right? Unfortunately, not all MCT oil supplements are created equal. For starters, many MCT oils are:

• Tough on the digestive system, causing stomach discomfort
• Inconvenient and not easy to transport
• Messy
• Require a blender to mix properly

And even if they can overcome those objections, there’s another problem: some MCT oils contain both C8 and C10, and there are even some – particularly those containing coconut oil – with the addition of C12 (lauric acid), which many don’t even consider a true MCT.

Research shows that C10 and C12 don’t have as much of an effect on ketone production as C8.

Simply put, many MCT oils can be difficult to digest, and they are inconvenient, messy, and require a blender to mix properly.

What about MCT oil powders? They are typically a step in the right direction. However, some MCT oil powders contain both C8 and C10, which doesn’t raise ketone levels to the extent that C8 does. Even many that are marketed as being C8 MCT oil powder are actually a combination of MCTs. MCT oil powders that are ONLY C8 will specify “C8 Caprylic Acid” somewhere on the Supplement Facts Panel and/or in the ingredients listing.

Remember, if you want an MCT supplement that optimally promotes ketone production – even without the need for carbohydrate restriction – you need one that ONLY contains C8.

It is the MCT that most reliably and effectively supports ketone production – without the need for carbohydrate restriction.^{Footnote †}

What’s more, many MCT oil powders:

• Contain maltodextrin, a highly refined carbohydrate
• Contain corn-, soy- and wheat-based ingredients and fillers
• Contain artificial sweeteners
• Have a polarizing flavor that either dulls or overpowers what you add them to
• Have poor solubility and don’t mix well

You may be wondering about coconut oil. How does it compare to MCT oil? After all, many of the highly touted benefits of coconut oil come down to its relatively high proportion of MCTs, and because it contains MCTs, many have taken the liberty to extrapolate these benefits to coconut oil.

The reality, however, is that coconut oil is mainly C12 and contains a very low percentage of C8 (less than 10%). Simply put, coconut oil ≠ MCTs, and the benefits of MCTs cannot be translated to coconut oil. For example, to get the same amount of C8 that you’d get from one serving of Keto Elevate from coconut oil, you’d have to consume 4 tablespoons of coconut oil. Can you imagine the sheer number of calories that you'd be consuming?

If it’s all about elevating ketone levels, how about the increasingly popular exogenous ketones? Unfortunately, many come with unwanted baggage. For instance, many are very expensive, many are not provided in the most-effective form, and when they are, they’re even more cost-prohibitive.

To make matters worse, some products using the inferior form of exogenous ketones include them at ineffective levels (“fairy dusting”). To add to that, exogenous ketones leave a lot to be desired in terms of taste.

Fortunately, it’s not all bad news…

What Makes Our MCT Oil Powder the Right Choice?

You see, when our research team discovered the exciting news about the C8 form of MCTs, we did what a science team at a high-integrity health company would do…

After searching the market, we decided to create our own with the integrity and honesty you’ve come to expect from BioTRUST. And that’s precisely why we formulated Keto Elevate, which we truly believe is the best MCT powder on the market today. Our Keto powder is unsweetened and unflavored. It's incredibly easy to use and mixes easily into hot and cool beverages and recipes.

Each scoop of Keto Elevate comes in a convenient powder form, has just 1 gram of net carbs, and each serving provides 5 grams of C8. Unlike other MCT oils and MCT oil powers, Keto Elevate Powder contains only C8 MCT and no other MCTs. It is not watered down with less powerful MCTs (NO C10, NO C12), and that means support for ketone production, which can lead to quick, clean, natural energy you can feel.^{Footnote †}

And since C8 promotes ketone production, it means Keto Elevate is the perfect partner for folks following a ketogenic lifestyle. C8 supports ketone production without the need for carbohydrate restriction, which means our Keto powder can even be used by folks who find it difficult to stick to a keto diet or simply prefer to consume more carbs.^{Footnote †}

Of course, you can’t expect to eat whatever you want, live an inactive lifestyle and expect to lose weight and be healthy. However, Keto Elevate really can support better, faster results while following a Keto Diet. And even if you don’t follow the diet, that’s okay, too. Research has shown that consuming C8 can promote ketone production – even without having to restrict carbs – which can support energy levels, mental focus and a healthy appetite.^{Footnote †}

Unlike MCT oils, Keto Elevate comes in a super-convenient, portable powder. That means you can take it with you wherever you go—whether you’re going to the gym or flying on an airplane. Keto Elevate has high solubility, which means it mixes easily with no mess and no clean-up required.

As the name implies, Keto Elevate is perfect for your ketogenic or low-carb lifestyle. After all, each serving of Keto Elevate contains just 1 net gram of carbohydrate – with no sugar. Believe it or not, many MCT oil powders contain hidden carbs.

Keto Elevate comes unflavored or in delicious Hazelnut flavor and French Vanilla flavor. Of course, MCT oils taste like, well, oil. And unlike some MCT oil powders, which contain artificial sweeteners and/or having overpowering sweetness, Keto Elevate contains no natural or artificial sweeteners.

What’s more, Keto Elevate contains no soy-, corn- or wheat-based ingredients or fillers, which may be an issue for some folks or may potentially raise insulin levels and kick you out of ketosis.

Even more, staying true to BioTRUST’s impeccable reputation for quality, Keto Elevate MCT oil powder is non-GMO and FREE from:

• Gluten
• Soy
• Wheat
• Maltodextrin
• Sugar
• Artificial sweeteners
