That Coffee is Something Else!

Bullet proof my coffee? Okay, I'm game, I'll try it, why not? Especially since I am working a lot these next couple of weeks and still finding time to continue my education. I finished facelift acupressure yesterday and it got me totally happy! I have big plans for the Fall when they will offer a weekend intensive on Energetic Reflexology and another on Indian Head Massage with more facelift points!

So, back to my coffee. It's a thing. You put butter from grass fed cows and MCT (Medium Chain Triglycerides), I like coconut oil because I have it. You can also buy very concentrated MCT at you local health food store. I know Whole Foods has their own. If you are anything like me, you're really cool and pretty, aaaaaaaaannnnnd you just thought “What?! Butter in my coffee? Oil in my COFFEE!!!! Why, Jo Anna, why would I do this, why would YOU?”

Because it's an experiment, and it pretty tasty. The theory is that the caffeine jump starts you and the fats sustain. You must use high quality fat, or there is no point other than flavor and texture. The oils lube up your joints and coat your stomach lining, and intestines (slippery!) and keep you feeling full. “They” also say it helps you lose weight because of the effect MCTs have on regular fat....

Today is my day 2, we'll see. I felt great yesterday, maybe it was the coffee, maybe it was my awesome attitude about life, it is good.


If you want to try it, here are some links with info. A lot of them suggest putting it in a blender, or vitamix. Ha ha! Yes, that is what my husband wants to wake up to at 4:30am....I use a wire whisk between my palms in my deep cup. Make a back and forth motion and that whisk whips very nicely.

As with anything of this nature, it may work for some and not for others.  We are all different.
