So in one tin you get ~80g Fat, and minimal carbs, with the fat mainly coming from 'fast' fats in the form of MCTs (Medium Chain Triglycerides)
So if you are on some form of Keto Diet it's great for getting you back into Ketosis (oxiding lipids from adipose tissue for conversion to ketones, or put simply burning fat rather than carbs for energy)
