MCT Oil is no more of a laxative than any other oil -- meaning that when consumed at too high a dose, it can cause digestive disturbances. But unlike other oils, BUBS MCT Oil Powder may actually help improve digestive health, by improving the health of your gut bacteria which aid in the digestion of nutrients. In addition, MCT Oil supplementation is recommended for those with certain gastrointestinal disorders, since they are the easiest oil to digest and absorb.
