Bullet Proof Coffee Nausea.

So I started drinking 10 oz black coffee with 15 ml heavy cream and 28 gram coconut oil. I wake up at 9am and drink that and then don't eat until 1 pm which then I have pistachios that come unsalted. So I'm not hungry but I'm just really nauseas. How does everyone else feel? Do I need more salt early on in my day? I started this trend because it really helps progress my weightloss while also getting my fats and I'm not hungry after plus it's so easy. What's your guys opinions?

    I don't put that much coconut oil in mine.
    I have 2 cups. Each one has about 7g coconut oil (MCT in my case) and same amount of butter.
    If I only had one cup I would put 14g of each.
    It's ok to use cream if you want instead of or even with butter too. I just don't.

    I don't get nauseas but I use between 7-11 g coconut oil and 6 g mct oil. 28 g may bother me too.

    i would work your way up to that much coconut oil. i had to start with 7gm plus 20ml HWC and worked my way up to 14gm.

    7gm coconut oil, 16g butter. No nausea. Maybe try a different balance of coconut oil vs other ingredients

    I don't know if this is "true" bulletproof coffee, but I made it today... 12 ounce cup, 1 TBS coconut oil, 2 TBS creamer..... so far so good. I finished it about 30 minutes ago.

    My guess is that the nausea you've felt is from the coconut oil too. Cut that to teaspoon sized servings at first. Our bodies need time to get used to it. Increase as desired after that. It can cause some bathroom issues too, at first!

    I know that I get nauseous if I use MCT oil in my first cup of tea in the morning, it also goes straight through me!! And I only used 15ml

    Normal coffee, black or with cream, makes me nauseous on an empty stomach. I was nervous that BPC would hit me hard with nausea when I tried it, but it wasn't bad. Though I haven't done the MCT oil, just normal coconut oil.

    I had that issue too. I cut back to 5-6 ml and no problems. The first three days I used more and thought I was gonna die my belly hurt so bad.
