Hi all I am prediabetic hanging on with low carb diet, with a 37 year old type 1 diabetic son and a type 2 husband on metformin. All of us are considering using good quality (no palm oil) MCT oil daily as a supplement. Type 1 son has heard it is useful in flattening out the early morning sugar spike, type 2 husband also thinks the same and i'm hoping it will give me a little more energy. Has anyone else tried this and and had good/bad results??
 
Welcome to the forum

You and your husband would probably benefit from a low carb diet.

I have not used MCT oil.
 
Presuming none of you are vegetarian or vegan, then I think you're probably better off just eating real animal fats in lieu of carbohydrate.
