Abstract

A method increases production of ketones derived from oral consumption of medium chain triglycerides (MCT) by an individual. The method includes orally administering to the individual a composition containing the MCTs and then subsequently orally administering to the individual a meal at least about ten minutes after the oral administration of the composition containing the MCTs and within about one hour of the oral administration of the composition containing the MCTs. For example, the meal can be administered about thirty minutes after the administration of the composition containing the MCTs. The ketone production is increased relative to ketone production from oral administration of the MCTs and the meal at approximately the same time. The meal can be breakfast. The composition containing the MCTs can be a liquid oral nutritional supplement (ONS) providing incomplete nutrition.
