Butter coffee is an amazing way to start off your keto day. Not only does it energize you, it also stimulates your metabolism, boosts focus and improves brain function. You may also know it as “bulletproof” coffee. The term “bulletproof” coffee was coined by David Asprey, CEO of The Bulletproof Executive.
One of the most popular methods for a supercharged, productive and healthy day is starting each morning with a cup of Butter Coffee. This is simply coffee with butter and coconut oil. You probably have all 3 ingredients in your kitchen now!
Starting your day with butter coffee gives you three things:
Suppressed hunger. Oil balances ghrelin and CCK, your hunger hormones, keeping you full until lunch.
Steady lasting energy. The saturated fat in grass-fed butter slows the absorption of caffeine, which gives you even energy for several hours instead of a caffeine spike and crash. No jitters, either.
Mental clarity. Fat rapidly converts to ketones, a type of molecule that your brain uses more efficiently than carbs or sugar. Pair ketones with the slowly releasing caffeine and you can literally feel your brain turning on.
