Make your own, seriously. It only takes 15 minutes, is no more complex than brewing coffee, and you will know what quality of butter it is made from :happy:. (my preference is for grass fed cattle).

Hi Alan, I use Ketosource.co.uk, and use MCT oil as a brain food. Start taking teaspoon with food and increase dose slowly each day, letting tummy to get used to it. Quantity and frequency of use depends on your own judgment: Is your brain finding it useful and responds with improved...
