it shouldnt i did just fine with it. are you lactose intolerant? that might lead to some stomach aching, if so maybe look into Elite whey from Dymatize its supposed to have an ingredient making it easier on those that are lactically challenged.QUICKRYDE said:Here a better question because I never tried the stuff...Does this supplement upset the stomach?

The saturated fats come in the form of MCT's. MCT's are not converted to fat, instead they more closely mimic the function of carbohydrates and are used as energy. I wouldn't worry about it too much. If anything you could use it as a cheat, because MM is that good.QUICKRYDE said:I was reading the supplement facts about this product and it has 162 calories from fat and 8g of saturated fat, from one serving. {Now, I know why you guys say it taste so good.}
CEDeoudes59 said:if you eat healthfully and still insert 1 cheat meal a day - let it be MM. just not post workout
CEDeoudes59 said:it's debatable - I mean its less the MCTs - and more your metabolism. Like this summer, I'd eat an entire carrot cake (1400calories) and wash it down with Cookies N Creme MM. Thus I got fat. Pete drinks 2 of these day (one first thing in the morning I think) and he's alright.
4 weeks left of Fat Camp! I've lost over 20lbs of fat and 3.5inches of garbage on the waist

MCTs first gained prominence for treating persons suffering from fat mal- absorption, pancreatic deficiency, or stomach or esophageal diseases. Researchers found that MCTs, because of their better solubility and motility, underwent a rapid hydrolysis by salivary, gastric, and pancreatic enzymes. Consequently, they were able to reach the liver and provide energy much more quickly than long-chain triglycerides (Guillot, et al., 1993). There was also some evidence that MCTs reduced lipid deposition in fat stores compared with that resulting from LCTs under identical energy intake conditions. However, this is no reason to believe that ingesting these oils in excess will not result in a positive energy balance which the body stores as fat. MCTs, like regular oils, like regular fats, have nine calories per gramme. Even though they are metabolized differently, using them in excessive amounts will add inches to your waistline.
