Coconut Oil plus Coffee - The Secret New Formula

Hey, it's Carlos. Good morning everyone. It's sort of 7:00 AM in the morning. It's time for coffee, and what better way of introducing coconut oil and the benefits of them. Because, I don't know if you've heard about it, but you can mix coconut oil with coffee. And you're probably thinking, what is this guy up to? I'll show you in a second, so stay tuned.

OK, welcome back Bloggers. Why am I making this post? Because I normally have coffee in the morning. Now, I want to supercharge my coffee today with some coconut oil. Now, why coconut oil? You're asking, you know, Carlos, what does coconut oil do? Well, let me tell you. I picked out the three benefits, the three main things why I think coconut oil is really beneficial for your coffee.

And if you Google it, you will see everyone tells you it's a super food, because the nations on this planet who sort of live off coconuts, because that's one of the main resources around their area where they live and their environment, they're one of the healthiest on this planet. They don't only drink the coconut water and eat the coconut inside, they also make creams out of it and rub it on their bodies and they use it as some sort of medicine. And there's a good reason for it. Let me tell you the top three.

Number one is it's a fat, but it's an MCT, a mid chain triglyceride, compared to other fats, which are long chain triglycerides. The difference is that your body takes longer to break down long chain triglycerides, and that happens in your intestines down there somewhere. For it to then be utilized as energy only happens not when you do high-intensity training. Fat is more or less the resource you have when you do aerobic exercise.

So mid chain just means that your liver breaks that down into ketone bodies. And what's the good thing about that? Well, your brain uses ketone bodies which are preferred to glucose. And isn't that brilliant? So you mix your coffee in the morning, which sort of is a stimulant. It gets your metabolic rate up and stuff, so you're starting to get more focused. And you mix it with the coconut oil. What happens? Your liver turns it into ketone bodies, and you get even more alert, more focused. And not only that, coffee is just the stimulant and coconut oil is more or less the energy you need to keep going.

Number two benefit is that studies have shown that if you eat coconut oil compared to a different oil or fat, this is increasing your energy expenditure and your metabolic rate as well. So in the long-term, eating coconut oil will lead to weight loss as well, which is brilliant. And the last fact is that it suppresses hunger. So you feel less hungry, and this is a good thing in the morning, especially if you're trying to lose weight and you're trying to find some sort of thing and you feel a bit peckish in the morning. You're like, I need to have this croissant. I need to have this chocolate. Whatever you eat, try to eat some coconut oil in your coffee because that way if you have a bit of coconutish coffee flavor, which is really nice.

Now I'm going to prepare one. I'm going to drink it, and show you how it looks like and how you do that. So give me a second.

So coffee is pouring in, pouring in, pouring in.

Yeah, this takes, like, ages right? OK, so here's my coffee.

You can see just normal coffee. Black coffee, that's important. You take your coconut oil, and its preferred something like that much. That should be all right. Just put it inside. And it's going to then-- if you can see it here. I'll see if you can see it. Maybe, maybe not. It swims on the top a bit of the surface, obviously, because it's fat. And it takes probably, depending on how hot your coffee is, but maybe one minute to get totally dissolved. That's basically it. Coffee done.

Now, one question I had a couple of times was, Carlos, could I put in some milk? Well, if you want to have the most benefit out of it, I would not put milk inside, because milk is an insulinogenic, which means that because of the lactose in milk, it spikes your insulin. And what we want by drinking this sort of drink is we don't want to spike our insulin. Because you just came out of a fast, because you wake up in the morning, that means to get all the benefits of your body still utilizing your body fat as energy and maybe a little bit of the coconut oil you've just eaten right now-- compared to the milk utilizing it.

Because what happens as your insulin spikes, it basically shuts down using your fat as energy and switches to a different mode. So the fat burning mode is off. That's why don't put any milk inside your coffee. Yeah, easy peasy, right? That's basically it. That's how you make coconut coffee. You know all about it now, all the benefits.
