Can anyone tell me whether cream is an acceptable replacement for butter in BP coffee? Cafe around the corner from my place is selling 'primal coffee' which has the above ingredient switch

Cream is fine if no butter or ghee available.

Heavy double cream better cos less carbs.

The issue with the cream is the casein protein content which triggers inflammation markers , albeit a small amounter 20-40ml but still enough to concern the bulletproof creator.

On another note, I've upped my Brain Octane Oil to 2 tea spoons rather than the initial one, great effects! Clarity, focus and confidence!

I'm also planning on making a cold drip coffee using the Upgraded coffee beans and brain octane oil overnight to see if I can get similar effects for summer!

Wait til you get to adding 4-8 teaspons
 
I use double cream (equivalent to heavy whipping cream...about 45-48% fat) in a pinch when I've run out of butter.

I find it makes for a smoother drink - not that I don't enjoy the butter...there's just something extra luxurious about the cream.

Seeing as you can make butter from double cream, I assume that the higher casein content is found in the residue left when you make butter - the buttermilk? So by using cream, you're consuming what would become the buttermilk as well as the butter.

Hmm, I might chuck a couple of blocks of butter in the freezer to ensure I don't run out and only have the cream as a treat.

I think I react ok to cream (although I suppose the only answer is to do some blood glucose tests), as I have it occasionally in egg based meals (baked egg, scrambled egg, omelettes, egg foo yung etc) - but maybe I should restrict it a little further.

If I'm out and want a coffee I always get a long black with cream.

I know that your intention was to eat these, but could the same principle be used to use these pods blended in with your coffee? Thus giving me a short cut to my BP coffee each morning and being able to make sure that I measure out the ingredients properly for consistency?

Not my intention to eat them at all :p

I use them to make my BP coffee so I don't have to measure out ingredients ;)

Cool, well I know what I'll be doing for prep!

Sounds great, must try that.

Have you heard about the new choc milk in Kiwiland? The whole country is going apeshit over it, fights, riots, black market, you name it and it only contains 21 teaspoons sugar per 300ml.

Society huh..

FWIW, I was excited about the expansion of Sumo Salad, but the times I've eaten it I just feel very unsatisfied, the salads are always kinda greasy and just dont' seem right..

Yeah right? I'll admit I haven't tried them for a while but I'm still looking forward to it, on the proviso that any salad I buy will be accompanied by a whole avocado bought next door.

I haven't had it for a while so they may have improved, and I would love to add that much avo. I love avo!

Will do this with Lindt 90% chocolate. Use choc protein?

This ends up like some keto friendly mousse I take it?
 
I hate when you go to the supermarket with something in mind and you forget exactly what it was that you were after.

It's doubly harder when you have to start trying to process in your head the difference between cocoa and cocao and cacao or whatever they all are.

Nevertheless, is this ok to put in BPC?

I put cinnamon in my BPC this morning. Went down a treat.
 
I have masterfoods ground cinnamon at home, is that what you used? if so, how much did you put in?

My sarcasm radar didn't quite go off then, was that a "no, don't use that one"?
