Bulletproof coffee has quickly become a trendy beverage among those following low-carb diets like ketogenic. Created by Dave Asprey and consisting of brewed coffee blended with grass-fed butter and MCT oil, the drink claims to provide energy, satisfaction, and focus throughout the day – particularly beneficial for fasting or intermittent fasting individuals. While its health benefits may be substantial, its consumption still contains high calories which could contribute to weight gain.

Bulletproof Coffee is a simple combination of hot black coffee combined with one to two tablespoons of unsalted grass-fed butter and MCT oil (usually made from coconut), which quickly supplies energy to your body while also serving to curb cravings, support healthy gut bacteria levels, and assist weight loss.

Many people customize their Bulletproof Coffee by adding collagen peptides, reishi mushroom powder or adaptogen herbs such as lion’s mane or ashwagandha for additional health benefits and enhanced flavor and texture. Though these additions aren’t necessary to the beverage’s health benefits, adding these elements could significantly raise its caloric intake and add sugars.

Bulletproof Coffee offers many health advantages, with most coming from its polyphenols found within its beans. Polyphenols can improve digestion, reduce inflammation, and even help protect against heart disease, diabetes and some cancers. To get the most out of its antioxidant benefits choose an altitude-grown variety as this type has shown higher polyphenol levels than others varieties.

Consuming moderate caffeine intake can not only provide health advantages from polyphenols, but can also aid concentration and alertness. Furthermore, its soluble fiber can promote regularity in digestion health and support regularity for regularity in overall digestive health. Therefore, many doctors advise limiting daily caffeine consumption to 400 milligrams.
