Butter coffee has quickly become an extremely popular drink among low-carbers in recent years. Made by mixing coffee brewed from beans with grass-fed butter and coconut oil, the beverage is often sold premade, ready-to-drink bottled products like Bulletproof Coffee. Although widely popular among low carb dieters, there’s little evidence suggesting any health benefits from regularly drinking this beverage.

Fatty additions to coffee may not necessarily be detrimental, but you must use fats that are appropriate. For optimal results, we suggest unsalted, organic grass-fed butter as your brew base and using only top quality virgin unrefined coconut oil available – make sure the ingredients are mixed at high speed in a blender so the oils disperse evenly rather than collecting at the top of your drink!

Blenders make creating thick, creamy drinks much simpler. The goal is to produce something similar to an iced cappuccino or mocha in terms of consistency; sweetening options typically include maple syrup, stevia or other natural sweeteners while cinnamon or cocoa powder can be added for flavor.

Some individuals believe that drinking butter coffee gives them more energy and makes them feel full, which may contribute to weight loss. This effect is caused by medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) in butter and oil being converted to ketones for fuel; furthermore, lacking carbohydrates causes your body to burn fat as energy instead, thus decreasing appetite and suppressing your hunger levels.

Coffee with milk may also increase bioavailability of antioxidants, as milk contains casein protein that binds with them and blocks their absorption. Butter can provide 3-4 times greater absorption, especially if made from grass-fed cows and contains little or no casein. Furthermore, butyrate found within butter helps promote gut health while simultaneously improving metabolism. Butter coffee contains linoleic acid and MCT oil, both known for their ability to reduce inflammation. But, it’s important to keep in mind that butter coffee remains calorically dense even without sugar or other additives; to limit consumption to one cup daily when replacing more nutritious breakfast meals – excessive consumption could result in weight gain otherwise balanced out with proper diet and physical activity.
