Product Overview
This keto-leaning powder pairs quick-burning MCTs with whey protein concentrate to support energy and recovery in a convenient, travel-friendly format. It comes in Unflavored (great for coffee) and Chocolate Mocha, so you can keep macros tight without committing to a sweet shake every time.
Quick Specs
Ingredient Breakdown
Why It Stands Out
Unlike straight protein or straight MCT oil, this combo gives you both quick fuel and a bump of protein in one scoop. The unflavored option disappears nicely into coffee, while the Chocolate Mocha flavor scratches the “treat” itch without heavy sugars. It’s a practical, budget-friendly way to tailor macros on a keto or low-carb plan.

Cautions & Considerations
Allergens & Sensitivities
Contains milk (whey). Some versions use coconut-derived MCTs. If you’re sensitive to dairy or coconut, consider alternatives.
Digestive Tolerance
MCTs may cause GI upset if you increase too quickly. Start with a small serving and build up as tolerated.
Supplement Common Sense
Supplements aren’t strictly regulated like medications. If you’re pregnant, nursing, on medication, or have a condition, talk to a healthcare professional first.
FAQs
Is it really keto-friendly?
Yes—this blend focuses on fats (from MCTs) with modest protein and low sugars, fitting most keto or low-carb plans.
Unflavored vs. Chocolate Mocha—what’s different?
Unflavored keeps recipes neutral; Chocolate Mocha includes cocoa and natural flavors for a light dessert-leaning profile.
Can I mix it into hot coffee?
Absolutely. Add powder first, then coffee, and stir or froth for a creamy texture.
What’s the serving size?
Typically 1 level scoop (about 11 g), ~41 servings per 1-lb container; always confirm on your label.
Does it contain lactose?
Yes—whey concentrate contains some lactose. If you’re lactose-sensitive, consider using a whey isolate product instead.
