Ketobomb is the first ever ketogenic creamer that can be added to your coffee, tea or favourite beverage. It contains sunflower oil powder, avocado oil powder, saffron extract and medium chain triglycerides to help keep your body in ketosis and allow your fat stores to be the primary source of energy your body uses for fuel. Individuals who are following a ketogenic diet can benefit greatly from Ketobomb as it contains a high level of medium chain triglycerides and very low levels of carbohydrates.

Individuals who take Ketobomb will experience faster weight loss compared to those on a regular ketogenic diet as it helps to increase satiety and reduce food intake, while also greatly increases fat oxidation and energy expenditure.

What are Medium Chain Triglycerides?

Medium chain triglycerides are triglycerides with a fatty acid chain varying between 6 and 10 carbon atoms. They are highly soluble in water, increasing their absorption rate compared to long chain triglycerides. They also bypass adipose tissue when digested - ensuring they are less susceptible to hormone sensitive lipase and less likely to be stored into adipose tissue stores.

Research on Medium Chain Triglycerides

Medium chain triglycerides work through multiple pathways to improve body composition. There are studies to suggest that they can help to reduce food intake, increase fat oxidation, increase energy expenditure and increase satiety (1,2,3,4) resulting in greater weight loss (5,6,7,8).
