What is Bulletproof Coffee and how do you prepare it?
Bulletproof Coffee is a very fatty coffee: Filter coffee is mixed with butter and coconut oil – but without “bad” milk. This creamy -creamy coffee is the invention of an American book author and the supposed miracle drink has also been around for a few years: in 2020 the hype saw the world of nutrition fairy tales – and it is always happy to be “freshly brewed” and then served as “super coffee”.
Bulletproof Coffee: Effect on body and energy level
The fats in the Bulletproof Coffee should ensure that you stay full for a long time and are more constant – because your brain could pull more energy out of the fats while your blood sugar and insulin level remained stable. This “effect” is attributed to the MCT fat (medium-chain triglycerides): These are smaller fat molecules that your brain can supply faster with energy, which in turn should affect your performance.
However, long -term studies are still missing regarding the benefits and tolerance of the MCT. In the case of athletes, no significant increase in performance by MCT could be observed. And as it should be for a superfood hype: Of course, butter coffee should also help you lose weight.
Can Bulletproof Coffee increase weight loss and performance?
No. As always, of all kinds of superfood: nothing is scientifically proven. If at all, there are a few weak basic examinations, but they would not allow any final statements about the “effectiveness” or even prove.
Ergo: A lot of hot air around hot hypes. No effect, but many fairy tales. In short: to whom butter coffee tastes good, you should like to drink it enjoyably – if you don’t, you should not reluctantly incorporate the fat brew against your “will” just because he thinks it is healthy and makes it slim and fit. This is about the same as the apple cider vinegar hype.
