Coconut milk provides the rich and creamy texture of So Lean and So Clean. We love it as an ingredient because coconut milk contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). MCTs are special fats that are immediately absorbed and metabolized (unlike other fat sources which travel through the lymphatic system before being metabolized). Research has found that consuming MCTs may cause your body to expend more energy and help you feel fuller and consume less food at later meals.
