Bulletproof coffee is also known as butter coffee and as the name implies, it is a coffee that has butter as its star ingredient. It is a high-calorie, caffeinated beverage created by Dave Asprey, an American entrepreneur and author. The drink is definitely unhealthy when taken in excess but when consumed in moderation and mindfully, it can be beneficial to your health.
The drink is high in calories and healthy fats due to the butter and thus, it provides increased levels of energy.
The high-fat content of the drink from the butter makes you feel full for longer and suppresses your appetite.
The blend of healthy fats and caffeine is believed to enhance cognitive function and mental focus.
The butter slows down the caffeine absorption in the body which avoids the rapid spikes in blood sugar.
The beverage serves as a simple way to enjoy something loaded with calories if your aim is to gain weight while also being a great drink for weight loss by making you feel full.
You can enjoy the drink at any time of the day since it doesn't take long to make it. Simply add butter to your cup of coffee and you're done.
The coffee is loaded with MCTs (Medium-Chain Triglycerides) which have been linked to high metabolism.
