I fast in the morning. I used to drink 20-24 oz of coffee with two tbsp of MCT and it gave me diarrhea. I switched to two tbsp-ish of coconut oil and now I'm fine. Has anybody had any experience with this? Will switching to gel caps fix that?per Kiefer's new article 10g seems like a lot of capsules to eat first thing in the morning. Any thoughts?
Two tablespoons of MCT oil is a lot. You are supposed to start out with a teaspoon and work your way up.
Doing the ml to g conversion….even if the math is a little off….that probably IS a lot. thanks!
just read this article. been using primarly coconut oil. he said it's best to ingest 10g upon waking to boost ketone production and then 10-20g pwo. should I start supplementing with a teaspoon in my coffee upon waking? i have read a lot of conflicting things about this and would like some clarification please. Thank you.
Yea this use to happen to me a lot back in the day. Then I spoke with Naomi, and she said to switch to coconut oil, because some of us can’t handle the influx of MCT oil, thus the diarrhea.After switching to coconut oil I am now fully operational, been about 16 months since I switched.

He also recommended it in the PWO shake if you aren't having carbs.

So use a little less. MCT either gets utilized immediately for energy or… well, you got that part already figured out. If you're not absorbing it; you're wasting it.

So MCT Oil or Coconut oil, I train in the mornings and I'm currently doing CNS………..so with a PWO am I right in thinking sans carbs, only protein and coconut oil or mct oil, and leucine and creatine?

MCT oil preferably, but coconut oil can work.
If you do CO, word of warning to eat it by the spoonful or find a way to melt/blend it. It'll clump up so best bet is to use MCT Oil with a PWO Shake.
He also recommended it in the PWO shake if you aren't having carbs.
Good to know, I was thinking fat would slow down the whey/leucine insulin spike. I'll get some MCT eventually for evening PWO shakes, right now I just do CO in a morning coffee or green tea.
