C8 & C10 MCT Oil a great source of energy and other health benefits - 500 ml
Premium C8 & C10 MCT oil made from 100% organic (certification in progress) coconuts for all biohacking or keto diet enthusiasts. It is purely plant-based, so even vegans can enjoy its effects.
Why buy
MCT oil from the British brand Hunter & Gather is rich in unsaturated fatty acids - lauric, caproic, caprylic and capric acids. MCT is an English acronym that stands for "Medium Chain Triglycerides", which is a form of medium chain fat.
Due to this shorter chain and different structure, this oil is more water soluble and is also better absorbed by the body. After consumption, it goes directly to the liver. It is therefore an immediately usable source of energy. It can even be used by the brain as fuel instead of glucose.

Use in the kitchen
MCT oil has a neutral smell and taste, so you can add it to smoothies, fresh, morning porridge, soups or sprinkle it on your salad. This oil is also an essential ingredient for the preparation of so-called bulletproof coffee. Prepare it according to the recipe directly from Hunter & Gather:
This MCT oil is made only from coconuts, you will not find any added palm oil as you may find in other types of MCT oils. It is thus a sustainable product with minimal environmental impact.

How to take MCT oil?
It is very easy to add MCT oil to your daily diet. We recommend taking up to 15 ml per day (if you are a beginner, start gradually) in coffee, smoothies, tea or drizzled on food (e.g. yoghurt, berries or muesli without cereals).
Due to the lower smoke point, we do not recommend cooking or frying with MCT oil. MCT oil contains a mixture of medium-chain fatty acids.
We offer two variants of MCT oil: pure C8 (Thrive Fuel®) and C8 C10.
Pure C8 is a more potent MCT oil & great for those looking to increase ketone production, or for those transitioning from a blend of C8 and C10. The blend of C8 & C10 is the ideal MCT oil input.

Who is behind the Hunter & Gather brand
Hunter & Gather was founded by a British couple - Amy, a lifelong sufferer of celiac disease, and Jeff, a self-described experimenter with different approaches to healthy eating. The company's philosophy is to create healthy, nutritious and maximum quality products. All of this, of course, with respect for the environment and maximum transparency towards customers. They base their products on healthy fats such as avocado, coconut, ghee, tallow and butter produced by free-ranging cattle. On the other hand, you will not find any gluten or added sugar in the products. Whether you're vegan, celiac, paleo enthusiast, a keto or low carb dieter, or eating a sugar or dairy free diet, Hunter & Gather has the right product for you.
Hunter & Gather Basic Principles
Our principles are at the heart of everything we do and every decision we make - after trying our food, we hope you'll agree that we're doing something unique at Hunter & Gather.
Quality
We use only the finest ingredients so our products are of the best quality. We carefully source, test and continuously taste test our range. We choose to give the individual ingredients the opportunity to shine on their own, and therefore openly embrace a "less is more" philosophy that keeps our formulations completely pure and free of any fillers or unnecessary extras.
Care for the environment
We believe in business being a change for the better and that businesses have a duty to the environment in which they operate. For this reason, we actively reduce the use of plastics. We use only glass or compostable packaging, pay a fair price for our ingredients, and work with like-minded farmer cooperatives that provide support and education to avocado farmers and their families in Kenya.
Real food
Our love of real, delicious, nutrient-dense foods has led us in business to produce real foods that are 100% natural, free of sugars, grains and inflammatory fats such as vegetable or seed oils.
Transparency
Transparency is absolutely key to us, so you can trust us to provide you with only the highest integrity products. From sourcing ingredients to our views on all lifestyle factors, we encourage you to always question conventional wisdom.
Why the name Hunter & Gather?
It's not just a tribute to the days of hunter-gatherers, when real, nutrient-rich food was crucial to our evolution. The name Hunter & Gather is also closely related to the lineage of Amy and Jeff. Amy's birth name is Hunt and Jeff's birth name is Gathergood. They say some things are meant to be...
Who is Amy?
Amy is a long-time celiac, and was diagnosed with this condition at the infant age of 18 months, after completing a 6-month food study plus countless hospital visits. These hardships later turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as they taught Amy to fully appreciate the impact food has on her optimal health and how to cook real meals from basic ingredients. A favorite product of Amy's from Hunter & Gather is the extra virgin avocado oil, which she uses not only for cooking but also for beauty (it's a great facial moisturizer and hair balm). Her perfect dinner is a cauliflower risotto with prawns, topped with avocado oil and garlic.
Who is Jeff?
Jeff is an experimenter with an insatiable appetite to try and develop new things and question established norms. His unwavering commitment to constantly challenge established habits and norms helps explain why the Hunter & Gather brand remains at the forefront of the UK's healthier living movement. Jeff saw a huge change in his personal life when he adopted a real food eating policy, started sleeping well and long, exercising and moving, and stopped using social media in the evening. Jeff's favorite Hunter & Gather product is the avocado mayo because it really pushes the boundaries of clean eating options and tastes amazing! The perfect dinner for him is a juicy free-range steak accompanied only by avocado mayonnaise.
