What is Bulletproof Coffee?
If you don't follow the ketogenic (keto) diet, then I'm sure you are asking 'what is bulletproof coffee?'.
Bulletproof coffee (aka Butter coffee) is a drink that combines coffee, MCT oil and butter/ghee (or a similar, plant-based, high fat product if you're vegan).
These three ingredients are mixed together using a blender until it achieved a smooth and frothy consistency similar to a latte.
Bulletproof coffee was invented by Dave Asprey. It’s a keto-friendly version of milky coffee that is enjoyed by people around the world.
Not only is keto coffee suitable for those following the keto diet, but it’s also ideal if you’re intermittent fasting, eating one meal a day (OMAD), or you’re trying to lose weight.
This is because it contains no carbohydrates, so it doesn’t ‘wake up’ your metabolism. Instead, your body remains in a fasted state (also known as ketosis). Many people enjoy bulletproof coffee for breakfast so they can fast for as long as possible.
With the long list of benefits of bulletproof coffee, it is no wonder this beverage is so popular, not only in the keto community, but by people not following the diet that understand the health benefits of adding MCT oil to the diet, such as for a pre-workout.
However, bulletproof coffees have got a bad reputation for their long preparation time and blending of specialised ingredients (MCT oil).
