Schon mal von „Bulletproof Coffee” gehört? Fans des Heißgetränks schwören auf die Kombination von MCT-Öl, Butter und Kaffee. Was Fette in Deinem Kaffee zu suchen haben, erfährst Du hier.

MCT oil and the Bulletproof Coffee

What is MCT oil?

The abbreviation MCT stands for medium-chain fatty acids (medium-chain triglycerides), which make the oil in question so special and valuable. The oil is of vegetable origin and is mainly obtained from the oil of the tropical coconut. This is naturally rich in MCT fatty acids, which is why the positive properties are further enhanced by the concentrated form in MCT oil. The oil is particularly interesting for athletes and people who have to perform at a high level. It is also suitable for a ketogenic diet.

How does Bulletproof Coffee work?

In the last few years, a real hype has developed around so-called Bulletproof Coffee. It is a trend from the USA, which is supposed to bring the body to peak performance. Many fitness enthusiasts are jumping on the bandwagon and integrating the strange hot drink into their diet. The combination of coffee, high-fat butter and oil may seem daunting to many, but appearances are deceptive! The composition is unique. Don't worry, the taste is by no means off-putting, but also appeals to real coffee lovers. It is reminiscent of a creamy latte macchiato when prepared correctly.

The high-fat coffee was developed by the American Dave Asprey, who was given a similar drink by a local woman in the heights of the Himalayas. He was so fascinated by the effect that, back in his home country, he set about developing a similar mixture. After many trials, the result was more than convincing. Today, everyone is talking about Bulletproof Coffee and it is extremely popular.

The coffee is said to increase performance, concentration and alertness. It is usually drunk early in the morning to give you the best possible start to the day. It can replace an entire meal, fill you up for several hours and provide your body with energy.

Please note: You should definitely drink your Bulletproof Coffee without sugar and milk so that your body can focus on burning and digesting fat. You should also make sure the coffee is of good quality.

How do you prepare Bulletproof Coffee?

The recipe is super simple:

  • All you need is 250 ml of hot coffee, 1 tbsp of butter or ghee and 1 tbsp of MCT oil.
  • Beat all the ingredients in a high-performance blender until frothy.
    Important! The coffee only tastes pleasant when it is really frothy.
