Best homemade coffee recipe

in #health7 years ago

Ingredients:

Brewed coffee
1 Tbs Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
1/2 Tbs Cinammon
1 cup milk or 1 sliver butter

Prepare the coffee in the usual way. Mix one tablespoon of coconut oil per cup of coffee. Add a half of tablespoon cinammon and blend it together with milk or butter until foam builds up. Honey can be added in the end when the coffee is not very hot.

Coconut oil:

Boosts your immune system
Is a good fat. This is because MCT (medium chain triacylglycerol) is absorbed and metabolized by the body more rapidly than long-chain fatty acids, meaning there is no time for them to get stored into fat persistent cells. MCT represents insant fuel for your body
Is a thermogenic food, which means it boosts your metabolism. This works complementary with coffee which has the same effect. It also smoothens and cools the slight acidity of the coffee
Keeps you longer full
Makes you smarter and happier
Has anti-Alzheimer effects
Kills harmful microorganisms
Fatty acids from coconut oil turn into ketones and can reduce seizures
Reduces cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol, increases HDL-cholesterol (the good protective one)
Improves blood coagulation
Has antioxidant effect
Helps lose fat, especially the abdominal one
