Bulletproof diet

Iv'e done the diet for two weeks now. The coffee taste good. the butter and mct oil are not that big of a deal. Lots of energy and clear thinking. When you are eating you eat healty organic food. No toxins at all.

BTW, don't worry about the jokers. Many will dismiss this without doing any research. I tend to listen to those who actually know what they're talking about rather than those who act like they know what they're talking about.

So, do you have peer reviewed research from a credible source? The real scientific stuff?

Or is all your "research" on this diet based off of promotional information and those who are trying to sell it?

I drank a version of this coffee almost every day for a year. I've had it with Dave's coffee and with regular coffee. It gave me a few hundred calories to start the day, I felt good after drinking it, and I liked the taste. As for all of his claims, eh, who knows...but the coffee was a welcome addition to my diet.

You've come on a calorie counting site to tell people calorie counting doesn't work?????

This is exactly what I was thinking. Sure, go ahead, rant about the new fad diet if you really want to, I don't care (I personally will not be drinking your lard coffee.) But, saying calorie counting does not work? Now who is not doing their research before stating such ridiculous things?

I was thinking that if someone was holding a gun to your head, that that would be incentive enough to lose weight.

I searched for posts on the Bulletproof Executive here to see who else was being successful on it. My brother just told me about it a few days ago and has lost 45 lbs so far in a few months. He is very excited about it. I don't think he is drinking the coffee, just doing the diet. He told me how great he was feeling, and improved energy. I hesitated posting as there are so many on here willing to bash people and info without knowing anything about it. I say if you are interested, go to the web site, read the scientific research, it's free.

Love this! I am very excited to make changes in my life!

Listen to Dave's podcast with Joe Rogan! AMAAAAZING!

I see a lot of criticism here for something that most people just don't understand. The Bulletproof Diet is simply a ketogenic diet which forces your body to use fat for energy instead of storing it away. Keto is not new, and it's not a fad diet either. It's been used to treat epilepsy, and athletes use it to "lean out" before a competition. My personal trainer has also lived exclusively on a keto diet for many years, and she's in excellent health. I have been eating a keto diet for almost two weeks now and I've lost 5 pounds almost effortlessly. Going for one spin class actually gave me a great metabolic boost. The trick is to use healthy fats (like yummy avocado), and teach your body that energy should come from fat, not from carbohydrates and sugars which most packaged foods in the U.S. contain an abundance of. The problem with a keto diet is mostly in how people use it (or abuse it). Loading up on butter is probably not the best idea when considering potential spikes in LDL cholesterol levels. Instead, I use olive oil, avocado and nuts. And by the way...you're not eliminating carbs on this diet. Most vegetables contain carbs, and this diet requires 20% of the calories to come from veggies.

I eat grassfed beef. And grassfed pork. And grassfed chicken.

Where do you find grass-fed pork or chicken. Chickens and hogs are not herbivores so this seems an unnatural and probably unhealthy diet for them.

Coffee blended with a bit of Kerrygold unsalted butter is actually pretty tasty (used to think it sounded gross too, until I tried it). I use it as a breakfast replacement since I really don't like to eat anything in the mornings. That way, I still consume some calories due to the butter. I wouldn't suggest this diet though, as all you need for weight loss is a deficit of calories. Just do what makes you comfortable and gets you into a calorie deficit.

lol...no it is not simply a keto diet. The 5lb are mostly water weight btw from reduced carbs.

And +1 for the solid 1st post on a necro thread.

I thought this was a post about a tequila diet. Never mind.
