Bulletproof Coffee


I have been wanting to write this post for some time. This one change to my diet took me from Paleo to Bulletproof and from health enthusiast to biohacker.

What is Bulletproof Coffee? Simply put, Bulletproof coffee is low toxin coffee enhanced with grass fed unsalted butter and pure MCT oil.

Why should you drink it? I will let Dave Asprey, the Bulletproof Executive and inventor of Bulletproof Coffee walk you through the benefits. However, I will say this: This energy dense breakfast is sugar free and has been instrumental in getting my blood glucose under control.

It does so by allowing me to extend my fast from protein and carbohydrates, both which can stimulate insulin secretion, from my last meal of the day until late morning, early afternoon, the following day. This puts me near, if not into, a state of Nutrional Ketosis (not Ketoacidosis), which I will discuss in another post.

One tip for the ladies: you may need to eat something with your Bulletproof Coffee as intermittent fasting can wreck havoc on your hormones, says Stefani Ruper. Make sure to listen to your body and check out her book Sexy By Nature.

Supplement Update



My Health and Wellness packs from Vitamins on Demand arrived yesterday! Because of my robust supplement regimen their 14-day packs only fit 7 days of my supplements. Still, they were on par with the cost of my supplements when purchased individually and arrive packaged and ready to go. No more shopping, stocking and bagging dozens of supplements for this dude.

New Logo!


I just had a professional logo created for my blog for $5 thanks to actualreviewnet at FIVERR. You would be surprised what people would do for just $5. Even when I added the $5 for vectorized images, and $10 for the original files, I got a professional, high-res image created for $20 with no Photo Shop skills required.

Stay well engineered,

Ice Cream?

Well, I just made my first batch of ice cream. Custard to be more precise, as it is made with eggs and zero milk, cream or sugar. So what's in it? Eggs, Grass-Fed Butter, MCT Oil, Upgraded Vanilla, Stevia and Water. That's it.

The recipe called for coconut oil and an acid like Vitamin C, Lime juice or apple cider vinegar as well, but I was concerned about the impact to taste. I simply used more MCT oil and omitted the acid.

Fresh out of the ice cream maker, I am concerned the lack of longer chain triglycerides from the missing coconut oil will leave the batch a little soupy. A tasty "milkshake" at the least.
