The improvements many claim and report are long before they have achieved a state of ketosis, if they ever even reach that state. Using MCT oil as a pick me up goes against all of the keto science.
Can we achieve the benefits by just cleaning up our diets?

MCT oil is definitely recommended for Keto. I do bulletproof coffee in the morning, tablespoon of grass fed butter, MCT oil, and blend it up with coffee.
I’m no expert, but as I linked in an earlier post, listen to Dom dagostino on joe rogsn podcast, he talks about the changes that occur in Ketosis and why it’s beneficial for people with mTBI.
