Bulletproof Coffee Questions
Today I've been reading about the benefits of MCT's and coconut oil. My wife is Thai and already had a jar of the stuff in her Thai cooking cupboard for cooking vegetables. I never thought about it much.
My daughter left behind this glass sized blender she used to make smoothies with and so I made a cup of coffee, poured it in the blender and added a heaping teaspoon and whipped it up - it tastes great!
First off, any comments on this good or bad? The calories concern me a little, especially if I do this to three cups of coffee a day... but maybe the calories should not be a consideration...
Secondly, assuming this is a good thing to do, most recipes call for adding "grass fed unsalted butter" - is this really "necessary" for some reason? Again that jacks up the calories even more. Somehow I think I'm already getting plenty of animal fat in my diet.
