Chocolate Bulletproof Smoothie: boost your energy!
This Chocolate Smoothie is a great way to naturally boost your energy! It contains the perfect combination of ingredients that will help to stabilize your glycemic index. At the same time, it is great to help you keep your energy levels higher for longer.
Low in carbs and calories, the MCT oil (or unrefined coconut oil) contained in it will help keep you full throughout the morning, and it is great to curb any harmful sugar cravings.
Here are some suggestions for you. Opt for a high-quality vegan protein powder if you want a fully plant-based recipe. If possible, prefer MCT or unrefined coconut oil. They are more flavourful than refined coconut oil and less processed, hence better for our overall health!
Why should you add Coconut Oil to your coffee?
Why should we add MCT or Coconut Oil to our Chocolate Coffee Shake?
First of all, starting our day with the healthy fats contained in coconut oil can help boost the immune system. For instance, the medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and lauric acid contained in the coconut oil, are great to improve cognitive function and prevent infections.
In addition, the combination of coffee and coconut oil can help trigger weight loss by way of ketosis, which is a metabolic state triggered by a lack of carbs that kicks fat-burning into overdrive. As a result, you will lose weight faster and in a more sustainable way!
