Liquigen MCT Oral Supplement

Liquigen is a concentrated medium chain triglyceride (MCT) emulsion used to add fat calories and MCT to the diet when standard dietary fat is poorly absorbed or restricted. Formulated by Nutricia, it delivers a readily absorbed energy source that bypasses the usual digestion and transport pathways of long chain fats — which is why dietitians and clinicians reach for it in the management of fat malabsorption, certain metabolic and neurological conditions, and ketogenic diet therapy.

Because Liquigen comes as a smooth white emulsion rather than an oil, it mixes easily into drinks, formula, purees, and soft foods without separating the way pure MCT oil can. The Liquigen MCT Oral Supplement, Unflavored, 8.5 oz. bottle (item 71957) is unflavored so it can be blended into a wide range of recipes without altering taste, making it practical for infants, children, and adults alike whose intake is being carefully built up.

Two questions come up most often. First, how much do I use? MCT is calorie-dense and should be introduced gradually to build tolerance and avoid GI upset — always follow the amount your physician or registered dietitian specifies, as dosing is tailored to the individual's condition and energy needs. Second, is it a complete nutrition source? It is not. Liquigen is a modular supplement meant to supply MCT and calories alongside a broader eating plan or feeding regimen, not to replace a complete formula.
