Hi I tried a bulletproof coffee this morning and very much enjoyed it but didn't test so will have to do that tomorrow. I made it with ordinary coffee, coconut oil and normal store bought butter. What are other people's experiences with bulletproof coffee please, i.e. blood glucose readings, adding cream, satiety until next meal etc, thanks

Levels my blood sugars out very well gives me an incredible mental lift deadens my appetite for hours I have it three mornings a week and I think drug dealers could do well flogging it.
Instant Nescafe tablespoon of unsalted butter two sweeteners that's it.

I feel better for watching this clip! Not yet sure I want butter in my coffee just yet though. But I may consider it once just to see what it's like.

thank for all the replies and for those who haven't tried, please do. I have both a tablespoon of coconut oil and butter in a big mug of just instant coffee with a couple of sweeteners and sometimes a dash of cream, put it all in a food processor ( I do it about a 1/3 at a time or otherwise it spills out of the top) and it's the best tasting coffee I have ever had and keeps you going for hours. I now have my 'breakfast omelette' at suppertime.

Hi,

I use posh ground decaf (grumpy mule brand), because the caffeine is a bit too much for me.

I make up half a 6 cup cafetiere, bung the brewed coffee into the blender with a... an approximately guessed lump of unsalted anchor or lurpak or kerrygold, with a blob of coconut oil, blend. Drink.

Makes about 400ml.

No jitters. Clear mind. Focus and concentration. No hunger for hours.

Love it.

Make sure the butter is unsalted.
I make a cup of instant in a jug let the butter melt nuke it for thirty seconds then add the oil and fluff it up with my whizzer and pour into a mug.
