An excerpt: "Replacement of dietary long-chain (LCT) for medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) can lead to increases in energy expenditure (EE) and satiety in humans. Energy expenditure can be increased by up to 460 kJ/d and food intake decreased by 175–698 kJ/d. The combination of increased energy expenditure and satiety can lead to prevention of body weight gain."

I'm still on a coconut oil kick.
 
I'm gonna have to read this stuff tomorrow, it looks interesting.

I think I'm officially on a health-kick now.
