What is MCT oil? Where does it come from? https://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/en/what-is-mct-oil-where-does-it-come-from/ https://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/en/what-is-mct-oil-where-does-it-come-from/#respond Thu, 30 Sep 2021 08:29:00 +0000 http://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/?p=617 What is MCT oil?

MCT oil is a supplement made from fats called medium-chain triglycerides.

The MCT molecule is smaller than the molecules in most fats (long-chain triglycerides [LCT]) you eat. This makes them easier to digest. You can quickly absorb the MCT in the blood. This will convert it into energy you can use. It is also a high energy source for sports nutrition, incapacity or the elderly. MCT is more like carbohydrates than fat, so it is mainly used for energy burning rather than fat storage.

Where does it come from?

MCT oil is usually made from coconut oil or palm kernel oil. Both have MCT.

If you replace LCT with MCT, you can store less fat and prolong satiety. If you are not so hungry, you can eat less. If you use MCT oil instead of coconut oil, you may consume fewer calories.

Although the research is promising, there is not enough data to show that MCT oil causes weight loss.

MCT can help your body make ketones, which are a source of energy for the brain without carbohydrates. Some people say that drinking it will make your mind sharper. However, if you do not have cognitive impairment, it is unlikely that you will get lasting brain stimulation just by adding some MCT oil.

A study of premature babies showed that adding MCT oil to formula milk can reduce a fungus called Candida, which can cause infections.

MCT can also help soothe and treat skin infections. The lauric acid in MCT can be used as an antibacterial agent, breaking down the walls of bacteria and viruses to destroy them.

MCT and the ketogenic diet

When you break down fat on a very low-carbohydrate diet, your body produces ketones. This can lower your insulin levels and help you burn fat. MCT can help you make more ketones than LCT. This may help you enter the fat burning phase faster, but we are not sure.

You may find it easier to stick to the ketogenic diet of MCT because you can eat more carbohydrates such as fruits and vegetables.

MCT risk

It is generally safe to use MCT oil in moderation. But be careful when using it for a long time. Some negative effects include:

It has a lot of calories. This can lead to weight gain.

Large amounts of saturated fat may increase your cholesterol.

MCT may stimulate the release of hunger hormones and make you overeat.

High doses Newsmay cause fat accumulation in the liver.

THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF FRENCH MARITIME PINE BARK EXTRACT IN THE FORM OF MSCC COMPLEX ACTISOME ON MELASMA https://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/en/the-efficacy-and-safety-of-french-maritime-pine-bark-extract-in-the-form-of-mscc-complex-actisome-on-melasma/ https://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/en/the-efficacy-and-safety-of-french-maritime-pine-bark-extract-in-the-form-of-mscc-complex-actisome-on-melasma/#respond Mon, 06 Sep 2021 08:19:00 +0000 http://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/?p=615 Foreword:

Long-term exposure of the face and neck to the sun will cause the most common pigmented disease-chloasma, and the most common manifestation is macular hyperpigmentation.

French Maritime Pine Bark (FMPB) is a complex of natural ingredients, which contains anthocyanin oligomers or proanthocyanidins, namely monomers, dimers and trimers of catechin and epicatechin, up to pentamerization body. They are polyphenols, but have special properties and are soluble in water. In the plant kingdom, they are bioflavonoid antioxidants, which are pigments, antioxidant organic acids and other biologically active ingredients that protect plants from free radical damage.

Research methods:

This double-blind, crossover, placebo-controlled study recruited 30 women with melasma. The study was divided into 2 groups, each of which included 15 women. The first group consisted of test drugs, and the second group consisted of placebo drugs. They received 40 mg of FMPB extract twice a day with MSCC complex or placebo capsules twice a day for a total of 30 days, followed by a 2-week washout period. Following the crossover phase, the first group of patients will receive the placebo medication and the second group of patients will receive the FMPB extract for 30 days. Clinical evaluation of chloasma, tracking the area of ​​chloasma and calculating the total area, and measuring the degree of lightening of the chloasma using a skin colorimeter.

Research result:

The efficacy evaluation during the first month showed the following. The average reduction of pigmentation intensity (L) in group B (treatment group) before and after treatment was 54.41±3.36 units and 55.94±3.37 units, respectively. In group A (placebo group), the average reduction in pigmentation intensity (L) before and after the placebo administration was 56.08±3.47 units and 56.80±4.08 units, respectively. The brightness of the skin has been significantly improved.

Group B (p=0.003) did not change significantly compared with group A (p=0.108) after one month of treatment. The total area of ​​chloasma in group B decreased from the average total area of ​​chloasma before treatment by 300.23±322.86 mm² to 270.62±273.78 mm² after treatment, a decrease of 29.62±49.09 mm², but it was not statistically significant (p=0.401). In group A, the average total area of ​​chloasma before placebo treatment was 303.91±297.09 mm², and after treatment it decreased to 238.00±215.20 mm². The average total area of ​​melasma was reduced by 65.91±81.89 mm², but it was not significant (p = 0.447)

in conclusion

Compared with the placebo group, which did not change significantly, after a one-month treatment period, the skin lightening degree of the treatment group was significantly improved. The average total area of ​​chloasma decreased in both groups, but the change in the placebo group was not statistically significant.

Compared with the placebo group, the area of ​​the treatment group improved significantly after one month of treatment after the crossover period. Compared with the placebo group where the degree of lightening decreased, the degree of skin lightening in the treatment group increased, but the changes in the two groups were not statistically significant. In the combination treatment group, as shown by a significant increase in skin lightening and a significant decrease in the area of ​​chloasma, there was a significant improvement in chloasma. The placebo group also showed some improvement in the degree of lightening and reduction in chloasma area, but these changes were not statistically significant.

Oral administration of 80 mg of FMPB extract in the form of MSCC complex for one month will produce mild side effects, such as mild gastrointestinal symptoms, but will not cause serious side effects or abnormal blood tests.

Oligopin® French DRT Marina Pine Bark Extract https://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/en/oligopin-french-drt-marina-pine-bark-extract/ https://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/en/oligopin-french-drt-marina-pine-bark-extract/#respond Tue, 10 Aug 2021 07:08:00 +0000 http://www.formosaproduce.com.tw/?p=594 Oligopin is extracted from French Lesland forest pine in southwestern France. It contains high-quality polymerized proanthocyanidins. The pure and natural ingredients have absolute quality assurance. It is suitable for health food or added to daily food.

Not all anthocyanins have biochemical effects, depending on the type of anthocyanins. Anthocyanins before polymerization are suitable for intestinal absorption, and their molecular weight is just suitable for good biochemical reactions to the human body. If the molecular weight is too high, it is less likely to be absorbed by the body.

Oligopin has a high content of OPC (dimer to pentamer) which is easily absorbed by the human body and is the first choice for your product raw materials.
