EtOH vs MCT — What’s the Difference?
Victory Pluz Educational Guide
Base Ingredient:
- EtOH (Ethanol) — A natural grain alcohol that extracts all parts of the plant quickly and completely.
- MCT Oil — A smooth oil from coconut or palm that gently pulls the main plant compounds.
___________________________________________________________________ - How It Works in the Body
- EtOH tinctures act fast. A few drops under the tongue can be felt within 5–15 minutes and last about 1–5 hours.
- MCT oil tinctures take longer to absorb (about 30–90 minutes) but can last 4–6 hours.
___________________________________________________________________ - Taste & Feel
- EtOH tinctures may taste stronger or feel warm on the tongue — best mixed with a small amount of juice or water.
- MCT tinctures are mild, smooth, and easy to take directly.
- EtOH tinctures stay fresh naturally and don’t spoil easily. 3-5 years stored in refrigerator or cool dark place.
- MCT tinctures last about a year when stored in a cool, dark place. ___________________________________________________________________
- Safety Tip!
CAUTION With EtoH: Contains alcohol. May burn mouth. Mix with a beverage before consuming. Keep away from heat or
flame. If you avoid alcohol or have liver-related conditions, choose an oil-based tincture instead.
