Bulletproof Coffee

I would. It made all the difference for me

I got bored with all the ritual paraphernalia (sp?) and having to wash up the wizzy thing.
So i downgraded to coffeemachine lungo and a sploosh of double cream.
Just as nice. And sustaining. And soooo much less phaff.

*violins*
And then a few months later i had to give up coffee altogether.
*more violins, trailing off mournfully...*
 
Well thanks for the info guys even if it did turn into a debate lol. Will google it and see what I come up with.
 
I drink what I call golden coffee. I adapted it from a recipe for golden milk, recommended as having anti-inflamatory action for arthritis. I put 15 ml (1 Tbsp) yummy virgin coconut oil and 5 ml (1 tsp) ground turmeric or cut-up fresh turmeric root (yellow haldi from an Indian grocery) in a mug and fill up with coffee with or without coconut cream. Sprinkle a couple grinds of black pepper. I haven't tried it with butter, but this stuff keeps me satisfied for hours, even without it and reduces my desire to snack.
 
That sounds such a great idea!!
 
Why the coffee ban? How sad!! I drink decaff but I just love the smell...

It was giving me high blood pressure. Only one cup a day, but it still pushed me up enough to need bp meds.
So I stopped drinking it, and now my bp is spot on.
And now I drink roasted chicory 'coffee' which is nice, but not as nice.

I was really lucky. All the doc wanted to do was prescribe some tabs. But I got myself a bp cuff and did some home testing. Exercise made no difference. Salt intake made no difference. Rest/sleep/meditation made no difference.
Yet cutting my one cup of decaff coffee gave me normal bp after just 4 days.
The doc thinks I am delusional. yet I don't need the meds any more. haha!

- by the way, I was just the same. I used to only be able to drink even decaff before midday, or I wouldn't sleep.
I guess some of us are just delicate little flowers.



Try Prewetts organic chicory. Holland and Barratt, Amazon, or elsewhere on the internet. I tried about 4 brands, but prefer this one. It will never be coffee, but it is delightful to be able to drink pretend 'coffee' after an evening meal, and be confident about sleeping.
 
Anyone tried it with pu-erh tea?
It's supposed to be very good for BG in it's own right, and would be far more like the original Yak butter tea that inspired the BPC?
I have to admit, I do drink Pu-erh tea, as I like it, but black.
