Yup. It's MCT (AFAIK), and its affordable!
Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Great stuff. Great price. Great bottle!
Packaged well, and the bottle design is flawless. It comes with two caps, one traditional cap style, and one hinged with a functional pour spout that prevents getting oil ALL over the bottle and ultimately EVERYTHING else like some other brands I've used in the past.
Can't beat the price.
Unfortunately, I cannot give a qualitative review as to the quality, as my testing capabilities are limited and any attempt to do so would be highly speculative. However, there is nothing obviously different (good/bad) about this verses competitor products.
I will be purchasing regularly! :)
---------Opinion/Observation on overall performance balance for the constrained budget. --------
I think that the largest gain/loss is going to be your overall dietary consumption of quality fats, and reduction in carbs consumed and removal of sugars . E.g, it doesn't matter if your consuming an "metabolically optimized C8 isolated MCT oil" in the morning if you loading up on low quality fats in the afternoon, or if your other ducks are out of line (read: sleep, exercise and greater diet). Your better off spending less on your MCT, and more on your other needs to optimize your equation.
In my personal case, I find being able to liberally use a cheap MCT (Viva) in larger quantities dynamically as needed throughout the day to keep myself energized and focused on the task at hand is a much better solution for efficiency than having to "ration" out a C8 isolate. Though I probably spend just as much if not more by using it this way, by being able to consume at a higher quantity, overall performance is greater in this case. Additionally, when consuming with other foods and metabolic efficiency and flavour is not as paramount (or when coconut would taste good), I'll opt for a quality coconut oil, as its also marginally cheaper per ounce. (about 13-15$/32oz compared to 18-20$/32oz for MCT). I have used HealthWorks Coconut oil in the past, and it was absolutely delicious. I recently got Kirkland (as on inspection it seemed to have the same qualities) for pennies on the dollar; but it tastes burnt, so I'm not sure if it was a batch issue, warehouse storage, or simply there processing methods but its defiantly not up to par in a taste test. I'll most likely try Viva in the future, as I've been impressed with them so far.
Takeaway: Great product if you like to use a lot of MCT! Just make sure your micros (vitamins and minerals) are in check if you exceed the 50% fat macro level. :)

Takes the best from coconut oil, leaves the rest
Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Regular coconut oil is recommended on paleo and keto diets, but it has a strong flavor and its solidity at room temperature means you can’t really use it on cold foods. This MCT oil derived from organic coconuts is a great solution for salad dressings, smoothies, and bulletproof coffee (even iced coffee!) that is vegan (instead of with butter) and more efficient at giving you energy than with coconut oil. Viva MCT Oil contains mostly Caprylic and Capric Acids, two of the three MCTs that are more efficiently converted to energy (the other one, Caproic Acid, is sort of unpleasant tasting, so they don’t include it in this mix) and very little Lauric Acid, which is a somewhat longer chain that takes longer to break down — some say it shouldn’t even be considered an MCT. Plain Coconut oil is about 75% Lauric Acid, so this oil is much more efficient in conversion to ketones for energy. It basically takes the best things in coconut oil and leaves the stuff that is less useful for ketosis.
And unlike some MCT oils, Viva’s is derived only from (organic, non-GMO) Coconut oil, not Palm oil, so you don’t have to worry about contributing to deforestation in Indonesia and destruction of orangutan and tiger habitat. Although coconuts also can adversely affect ecosystems to some extent because birds don’t nest in them, thereby depriving the surrounding soil of the resupplied nutrients in bird guano, the trees take longer to grow than oil palms, so it’s less worth it to tear down forest to plant them, and there are industry consortiums dedicated to making coconut farms sustainable and eco sensitive.
Although I like the flavor of coconut, there are some things I don’t want it in. For all of those, there’s Viva MCT Oil.
I have asked the company if it would affect the effectiveness if I used it to cook with, there’s nothing on the package that indicates one way or the other. I’ll update this review when I get an answer.

Purchase or perish.
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I don't think Mike can produce anything below 5 stars. In his recent Christmas episode on the Naked Bible Podcast I was a bit wary of listening to it. I realize this is a review of his book here, but let me make my point. The problem with not wanting to listen to his Christmas episode is that I don't really care if Christmas was/is a pagan holiday. So, honestly, it wasn't appealing to me. Somehow I ended up listening to it, and I'm telling you the amount of information he crammed in there was FASCINATING. I'm not kidding. I was so tired of hearing that subject (because I've been born and raised into Christianity), but Mike and Trey did their thing and it had me on the edge of my metaphorical seat the entire time. If you listen to that episode (Naked Bible Episode 195) you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. And what's the point of all that I just said? It's that Mike doesn't do anything half way. All that he puts out is serious work that is worthy of much consideration. No Hillary v. Trump fact checking here (though I'm sure he'd encourage you to research what he's saying). The point is, however, that not everyone has the training that he or his contemporaries have. And THAT is exactly why it is paramount that we rely upon scholars who have said extensive training.
I challenge you with this (something I've challenged myself to accept): You essentially know nothing about the Bible if you don't have not just Heiser's background, but other scholars such as John H. Walton. There are many to list, but Walton would be a good companion to list next to Heiser. If you're the lay-person, do yourself a favor and pick up this work, or The Unseen Realm (or both!) and any of Walton's work. Open up your mind and challenge yourself to realize that unless you are incredibly familiar with the Ancient Near East's way of life and thought processes, then it's highly likely that you don't actually understand what is going on when you read the Bible.
Enter "The Bible Unfiltered."
Considerations for the seminary student:
This is a great book for those who need a quick reference on a particular subject. Heiser's name is well known, and thus to reference this book in one's papers, even for a one-liner, is to reference legitimate scholarship. I'm not advocating that one does one's entire paper off of just one chapter from this book, but my point is more-so that with Heiser's reputation it will be known that you're not quoting Joe Scholar who earned his PhD in I Do What I Want. If you know Mike then you know that he's done a lot of work to present to you CONTEXTUAL research on any given listed topic. For that alone the price is worth it (though it undoubtedly cost him more to do the research that it does for us to purchase the book).
Considerations for the lay-person:
1. On p. 7, Heiser says, "If Bible study doesn't seem like work to you, you aren't really doing it." Yes, that's harsh, but so was Phinehas, Peter, Paul, and Jesus. (Even Bonhoeffer was harsh in his "The Cost of Discipleship")! Over and over again Heiser says on his podcast that Bible reading is not actually Bible STUDY (not yelling, I just don't have italics in this comment box).
2. This book is great for having a quick reference for subjects. You do not have to read the book in order to understand the content of any given chapter. I use this book to help direct me to other scriptures that I can't seem to remember. Here, Heiser treats topics with brevity, yet with depth at the same time--depth that stems from years of immersing hisself in the original cultural context, the surrounding culture's contexts, and original languages of the Bible. In other words, this book will act, for the lay person, as an appetizer that gets you excited for the full meal and subsequently spark a desire within you to finally take seriously contextual Bible study. If you've never read Heiser's stuff before, this is a great place for you to get introduced to his work. From here I'd recommend getting The Unseen Realm, and then Reversing Hermon. Follow all his other works at drmsh.com, nakedbiblepodcast.com, and moreunseenrealm.com (I'm not getting paid to say all of this).
Considerations for the scholar:
Rid yourself of your presuppositions, get with the times, and adopt the supernatural worldview of the Bible's authors, because yours isn't supernatural enough. (Can that be considered speaking the truth in love?...)
(Pictures won't rotate for some reason. Sorry!). My hand on the book next to the Schuyler Bible shows the size of the book.
