Coconut milk...good fat?

[bboveri]

Picked up a can of coconut milk thinking it would be nice to add into a shake.

Per 1/3 cup, 6g fat (4g sat), <1g carbs, 1g protein.

I use skim milk and throw in 1/3 cup of this for a nice choc/coconut flavored shake.

Are the fats in this MCT's?? Or is that only in coconut oil?

I haven't experemented with the milk but I can give virgin cocunut oil a big thumbs up as an addition to protein shakes. At the moment my shakes consist of 50 grams of whey protein, 1 tablespoon of full fat milk powder and a tablespoon of cocunut oil. Loving the oil. Love healthy fats full stop.
