Bulletproof Coffee
You’ve probably heard of bulletproof coffee. However, do you understand what it is? Bulletproof coffee is simply a mixture of coffee, MCT oil, and butter. MCT oil is a coconut oil derivative. The resulting coffee has the term “bulletproof” because it gives you an unmatched burst of energy. The coffee is perfect for the keto diet because of other factors i.e., it contains healthy fats (from grass-fed butter and coconut oil). Taking this morning coffee concoction often is bound to give you the power to sustain a keto diet without feeling drained because you don’t take as many carbs as before.
Natural Nut & Seed Butters
Natural nut butter is a 100% organic butter with zero additives including sugar. This butter is a perfect substitute for peanut butter because of its smoothness, taste and health benefits. It may not be as tasty as peanut butter, but it is clearly a better option. You may also find it as tasty, if not tastier than unhealthy spreads. The taste scenario is similar to that of dark chocolate vs. milk/white chocolate. There are many nuts and seed butters to consider. The best include sunflower seed butter and almond butter. However, make sure you check all the labels before buying any natural nut and seed butters.
