Which works better, brain octane oil or MCT 100%?

as i said in response to another question here, MCT is synthesized, real coconut oil isn't. furthermore, real coconut oil contains lauric acid, its main component, which is absent from all MCT products. C8 may be beneficial--and as a current user of Brain Octane, i can vouch for its efficacy, truly amazing--but if you get only C8, you are missing out on all the other wonderful fatty acids contained in coconut oil, especially lauric acid. here's an article that explains it well: http://healthimpactnews.com/2014/mct-oil-vs-coconut-oil-the-truth-exposed/

How much is a serving ? How many servings per bottle?

a "serving" is usually listed as a tablespoon so in a 16oz bottle there are 32 tablespoons .. having said that, a serving as a practical matter is based on tolerance .. MCT can cause gastro distress .. best to start slow, maybe a teaspoon to see how you react, then increase up to 3 tablespoons a day .. In one study 22 grams (about a tablespoon and a half) was the therapeutic dose used to see improvement in Alzheimer's patients ..

What are the ingredients? Thank you.

My bottle states very clearly "Ingredients: Caprylic acid triglycerides from highly refined coconut oil" and "Contains no palm oil." The Bulletproof website also states "100% caprylic acid triglycerides from coconut oil". Now on my third 16oz. bottle and am completely satisfied with this product, we use 1 or 2 teaspoons in our morning coffee along with a teaspoon of Ancient Organics Ghee (clarified butter, 100% organic and freshly made in Berkeley CA). Best. Coffee. Ever.

Do you refrigerate after opening?

Genuine mct oil should NOT solidify (like coconut oil) when refrigerated. NOW brand MCT oil is the only brand that I have purchased that dies not solidify when refrigerated so I’m sticking to that brand. Sure NOW brand is not purely caprylic acid but it slides the claim to be.
