Burn Fat with Fat

The human body is an adaptive organism that regulates the secretion of hormones and enzymes production by the food we eat .
When you mengasup carbohydrates , the body will use it as a source of energy and keep the rest in fat cells . Even when you mengasup protein , the body will use it as a raw material -forming cells and muscle tissue . So what happens if you eat fat ?
Now we take the example of the fat content contained in virgin coconut oil . In the fat content of coconut oil are called Medium Chain Triglycerides ( MCT ) or medium- chain fatty acids that have properties quickly digested so the body can immediately use it as fuel .
When the body can metabolize fat quickly , MCT 's metabolic processes will produce ketones . Ketones are a byproduct of the metabolism of MCT . When the body does not have enough glucose , liver ( liver ) will convert fat into ketones acid , which is used as fuel by the muscles .
