Bulletproof Coffee


I have been hearing a lot of talk about Bulletproof Coffee lately. I decided to take the plunge and give it a shot this morning as who doesn’t like a good body hack. I made mine with 1 Tbsp of Kerrygold butter which is the normal butter I eat anyway and 1 TBSP of virgin coconut oil. I ran it through the magic bullet to blend it and gave it a go.

I have to say the butter seemed way to rich for me in a cup of coffee, I found myself continually adding more black coffee to the mix to tone down the flavor. I used coconut oil instead of MCT (medium chain triglycerides) Oil as that is what I normally eat anyway and I am not convinced about MCT yet vs something more natural. Here is an article talking about MCT vs coconut oil. In theory I like the concept as someone who sometimes eats a Primal Diet I have seen the benefits of a higher fat diet, for both appetite control and weight loss so this seems to fit right into that.

The question is did it do anything for me? So far I am not noticing any difference as far as mental clarity goes on day one of it, I will see how it works for appetite control. I suspect it will work for that based on previous experiments with a high fat diet. Will I make it again? I think I will try it again to get a better sample than just one day, but I don’t think I am going to blend it anymore. I don’t like the consistency of it blended, I would rather drink coffee with oil on top of it instead. I will post again if I see any different results from future experiments with it, but for me right now, the jury is still out on it.
