    Bulletproof Coffee

    http://www.endofthreefitness.com/how...-better-human/

    The things Facebook makes you aware of.

    I'm supposed to put butter and coconut oil in my coffee now? Why?

      I'm sure it would. But I really don't want to add an extra 220 calories to my coffee everyday!

        My friend does it - she says it takes the place of breakfast many days and fills her up.

          I occasionally have it in place of breakfast. It's really good!

            I've done it with coconut oil too! It's filling and yummy! (And not nearly as fatty those calorie-bomb frapps from Starbucks.)

            I'll save my frapp rant for another day...
            I'm just trying to make it out alive!

              Adding butter and oil to your coffee sounds completely unappealing to me. But, I've never tried/used coconut oil in any capacity so I don't have a very sturdy leg to stand on. Sounds like a great way to get an upset stomach first thing in the morning.

                Oh, it's completely delicious. Butter is just churned cream. Tasty, tasty cream. I was really surprised at how good the coconut oil was.

                  Good point. It just sounds SO rich/heavy in theory. Does it have a coconut flavor? I hate coconut (main reason I haven't jumped on that CO bandwagon).

                    The amount of flavor depends on how refined it is. More refined = less coconut flavor.

                    I use creamed coconut (coconut milk, oil, and shredded coconut) in my coffee occasionally. It's very good, but a little goes a looooooong way.

                    Up until it had real coconut, I haaaaaated it. The overly processed, shredded crap in the grocery store has little resemblance to the less adulterated stuff. I hate the crap for candy/cookies, but I really like the real stuff.

                        Minor hijack to say I used to love coconut in all forms and then the first time I drank coconut water I had my first anaphylactic reaction and now I can't even have a sweet morsel of Penang without my throat closing up
