You know, I heard about bulletproof coffee a few years back on a podcast, but the speakers

My thought was, “Sounds like just another fad that’ll disappear soon!”

Today, it seems like bullet proof coffee is popping up everywhere and even some of your

Can Bulletproof coffee actually help you burn fat and lose weight?

The name is actually a trademarked under Dave Asprey, a marketer, self-titled “biohacker,”

With Bulletproof Coffee, along with his Bulletproof Diet, he promises to help “upgrade” your

life if you follow his plans and use his products.

He’s kind of caught some heat recently about the… efficacy of his products, but the bulletproof

coffee concept is still perceived positively by many.

So, let’s look at the ingredients: 1 cup of freshly brewed coffee

1-2 tablespoons of unsalted, grass-fed, butter And 1-2 tablespoons of MCT oil, a more concentrated

Blend these three ingredients together and, BAM, you have bulletproof coffee.

Dave Asprey says that you need HIS special blend of MCT oil and magical toxin-free coffee

beans to make it work, but no research has ever proven that to be true.

Now let’s dissect the reasoning for these ingredients.

Unsalted, grass-fed butter is added because it contains higher levels of conjugated linoleic

acid, aka CLA, which has been touted for being a fat-burning fatty acid.

The studies, unfortunately, saw little to no effect in weight or fat loss with CLA.

And the study with the greatest effect only saw subjects lose on average 2.5 pounds in

MCT oil, on the other hand, is a bit trickier.

MCT actually stands for medium-chain triglycerides.

And because of its medium size, it can be quickly metabolized in the liver to provide

energy and circulate ketone bodies, perfect for those needing an extra energy boost or

When it comes to studies, there is a trend for increased weight and fat loss with MCT

However, the only studies that saw results were done with overweight to obese subjects.

Average-sized populations failed to achieve any significant change.

Even with the current evidence, there are plenty of people that claim bulletproof coffee

indeed works, but not the way the initial research observed.

The magic is actually all about making you feel full.

If we look at satiety studies, there is definitely more supporting evidence for MCT oil and butter.

In fact, that’s really the case for any fats, especially when you compare it to sugar,

By adding globs of butter and MCT oil to your morning coffee, you can hold off eating lunch

With the recommended 2 tablespoons of butter and MCT oil, you’re looking aaat…

That’s not only a lot of calories, but it’s also a lot of calories with little to no nutrients

Even though a traditional small breakfast might not keep you full as long, it does offer

a greater variety of vitamins, minerals, and protein.

But if you ask me, I would personally suggest that, for those wanting to lose weight but

tend to scoff down too much food in the morning, have an early lunch, or trying to stay in

ketosis, then you should consider bulletproof coffee.

You just have to plan the rest of your diet accordingly.

If you don’t think you’ll benefit from the added satiety, then skip it altogether.

You’re better with a more nutritious meal.

And, it’s probably time to change the name of it, too, as we now know, this coffee is

Maybe paleo coffee, or butter coffee, or MCTCLA coffee, or cocospresso?
