ORGANIC MCT C8 oil
High-purity energy from 99% caprylic acid (C8). The smart addition to your daily biohacking routine.
ORGANIC MCT C8 oil
Pure Organic MCT C8 Oil – focused energy in its purest form. Derived from high-quality organic coconut oil and consisting of 100% caprylic acid (C8), it is one of the most effective MCT sources for fast, clean energy. Particularly valued in ketogenic and lectin-free diets, it is directly absorbed by the body and efficiently converted into ketone bodies.
Studies show that caprylic acid has the strongest ketogenic effect among all MCT fatty acids and is particularly efficiently converted into ketone bodies (PMC). Even with simultaneous intake of carbohydrates, C8 can still contribute to ketone production – although the amount may be reduced (PMC). This makes it a unique energy source for everyday life, focus, and performance.
Thanks to its neutral taste, the oil can be used in a variety of ways – whether in coffee, smoothies, or creative recipes. For those who want to learn more about the background, the articles in TOBIO's science blog offer exciting insights into MCTs, ketones, and modern nutrition:

MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) are saturated fatty acids that can be quickly and directly absorbed by the body without the need for enzymes. These fatty acids are converted in the liver into so-called ketone bodies, which serve as an energy source and can also stimulate important processes in the body related to inflammation reduction, repair, and detoxification.
Our MCT oil consists of 98% C8 caprylic acid and is therefore a highly purified natural extract from 100% organic coconut oil. We use only caprylic acid because other MCTs can cause undesirable side effects in some people.
Mixed with hot drinks such as coffee, or in salads or desserts, this valuable oil provides a creamy taste and the extra "keto kick".

Why do we use highly purified C8 and not other MCTs?
There is excellent research on caprylic acid (C8) ( more information here ). C10 and other MCTs can also cause digestive problems even in smaller amounts.
Can I also use the BIO C8 MCT oil if I am not strictly following a keto diet or fasting?
Absolutely ! That's one of the biggest advantages. While you normally need long periods of fasting to get into ketosis, TOBIO MCT oil provides a direct source of ketones – regardless of the rest of your diet. It's excellent as a quick energy boost for the brain in the morning or before mentally demanding tasks. Many of our customers use it in their coffee or smoothie to benefit from the gentle energy boost without having to skip meals.
What do I need to pay attention to when taking it for the first time?
Because our C8 oil is highly concentrated, we recommend a gradual introduction to gently acclimate your metabolism to efficient fat burning. Start with one teaspoon (approx. 5 ml) per day during the first week. If your body responds well to this new energy source, you can gradually increase the amount to 1-2 tablespoons, or as needed and according to your taste.
Biohacker tip: For best results, mix the oil into a drink (e.g., using a milk frother). The resulting emulsion ensures even better absorption and makes the drink particularly creamy.

Ketosis at the push of a button?
Fasting is powerful, but often difficult to integrate into everyday life. Our C8 MCT oil is the "shortcut": It is converted directly into ketone bodies (such as beta-hydroxybutyrate) in the liver without significantly affecting lipase release.
This is how you support your energy metabolism without actually having to fast.
Interestingly, BHB levels in the blood also appear to rise after taking MCTs, even if carbohydrates are consumed at the same time, which would otherwise prevent ketosis.
What do fasting, MCTs, and BHB have in common?
Modern research shows that the positive effects of fasting are closely linked to the production of ketone bodies. Our organic C8 MCT oil works precisely on this principle and serves as a direct precursor to beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB).

Why C8 MCT (caprylic acid) is three times more ketogenic than other MCTs
Why C8 MCT is the most effective ketone booster: Caprylic acid has a faster and stronger ketogenic effect than other MCT fats.
