I thought I had read that before but I wasn't for sure.So….you’re probably on to something.
Here’s what I know…..
Coconut oil is comprised of long chain triglycerides (most fats are, like fish avocado etc)…
MCT oil is comprised of medium chain triglycerides …..
The difference is the medium chain triglycerides don’t require the extra gut enzymes to digest, so MCT is sent straight to your liver for absorption, thus hitting you faster.

I've got a block of coco coir that I hydrated and then put into a fabric bag and hung it up in the shower,
Ive been showering it with hot water for the last 3 days,
Is there anything needed done to it now before I use it for a top dress to stabilize the tall stems
Thanks mate, that's what I was thinking, do I need Calmag,Probably wouldn’t hurt to buffer it with calmag but if your putting it in soil that may not be necessary and that’s outta my expertise
Yeah, I think it helps make it more bioavailable…And the Ovaltine that I use has soy lecithin, that should also aid in the absorption from my understanding.
Thanks mate, that's what I was thinking, do I need Calmag,
But as you say the light mix should buffer it,
Would it hurt to pour boiling water over it 1 last time, drain it and then put in a container to take to the Den?
Pretty sure if not buffered with calmg, the coco will absorb calcium and phosphorus from any given nutes…. That whole cation exchange business…..I don’t know if the soil will buffer it especially if you’re just laying it on top? Yes rinsing with hot water will rinse the coco more but I am under the belief that the plain water will strip the calcium from the coco. This is where it gets above my expertise
The next time I am out and about and near a particular barbecue restaurant, I'm going to get one of their crazy loaded potatoes and add my oil to that. The absorption is fairly quick and quite thorough when used in the baked potato. You can get that loaded potato with smoked pulled pork and or smoked brisket!Yeah, I think it helps make it more bioavailable…
