Throughout this Keto journey, I’ve read multiple articles talking about how Bulletproof Coffee was a staple to the success of the program. It helped them overcome hunger urges, and kept them energized throughout the day. I decided that I needed to try it out for myself. It turns out that the ingredients aren’t as expensive or difficult to find as I would have expected. I didn’t even have to order any of the supplies on the internet, as I imagined I would.
So what is Bulletproof coffee? Simply put, it’s one cup of your favorite brewed coffee mixed with 1 tablespoon of grass-fed butter, and 1 teaspoon of MCT oil, blended to a frothy mix and poured into your favorite Minion coffee mug. In my case, I used Bulletproof brand Brain Octane Oil and added Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides. Watch out folks, with that wicked one-two punch, I’m about to mix brains and beauty to become an unstoppable force.
Here’s how you make Bulletproof coffee the Cody Rose way. I’m sure my way is the same as thousands of others, so don’t get too hung up on the name. This is what you will need.
1 tablespoon of Folgers Classic Roast Coffee
1 tablespoon of Kerrygold Pure Irish Butter (Grass-Fed)
1 teaspoon of Bulletproof Brain Octane Oil
1 teaspoon of unflavored Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides
A Blender
A Minion Coffee Mug
Brew up a batch of your favorite coffee. I use Folgers Classic Roast, because that is affordable, accessible, and it’s just the brand of coffee I’ve been drinking since college. Go ahead and use whatever coffee you’re already using. Next, take the butter, the Brain Octane Oil, and the Collagen Peptides and put them in the blender with one cup of your freshly brewed coffee. Blend them all together until it gets rich and frothy, which for me takes about 25 seconds. Pour it into your mug and enjoy!
Within 20 minutes I could already notice a change in my focus and energy. It was almost like I flipped a light switch on inside my brain. The butter will slow the absorption of the caffeine, which will give you a long continuous flow of energy, rather than a sugar spike then crash. The Brain Octane Oil will help to suppress your hunger and help you lose weight, while also giving you clean energy and focus. The Collagen Peptides will help with hair, skin, and nail protection as well as joint support. It’s really a win-win!
It tastes fantastic as well. I’m sure if you used a different brand of coffee, or some kind of expensive organic blend of beans, it will taste even better, but I am completely satisfied with the taste with my ol’ Folgers brand. It has a rich and frothy texture that keeps me drinking it, rather than getting sick of it and leaving it sit to get cold. For the amount of time it takes to prepare, compared to the time it takes to prepare my normal Keto breakfast, I’m going to come out further ahead with the Bulletproof coffee. Not only is it going to suppress my appetite so I can make it until lunch without a meal or a snack, but I’ll be able to quit drinking my expensive energy drinks as well.
It seems to me like Bulletproof Coffee is some kind of magic elixir that is about to become a staple in my daily breakfast routine. I look forward to the positive health benefits that it provides, as well as the ability to save time and money over my former conventional breakfasts.
