It smells really good, as if the aroma of coffee is mixed with the aroma of fresh popcorn with butter. It has color and texture as the white coffee but this drinks is thick and creamy.

Asprey clarifies that “bulletproof coffee”:
- the quality coffee contains a very few toxins that would act against caffeine.
- much fat slows down,and at the same time boosts the effect of caffeine on the brain to work faster.
- the butter is full of antioxidants, good cholesterol and vitamin K, which are known to have positive effects on the body.
- Coconut oil is the main source of lauric acid, medium chain triglycerides (MCT). It’s the fat that acts as a carbohydrate, is directly processed by the liver, and provides your body with energy.
- a lot of fat trigger the so-called ketogenic process in the body, which means that the body gets the energy from fat and not from carbohydrates and so after using the fat from coffee,the body will begin to use the accumulated fat in the body.
