Thank you for the tips, Joe. Adding cinnamon to the coffee grounds would be a great benefit for my dad who had a stroke about 2-3 years ago. Good thing he likes cinnamon.
I make my organic instant coffee but I heard it's better to avoid instant anything but I do like Mount Hagen organic instant. Then I use sugar in the raw packets. Typically two only and one Stevia packet which puts the sugar content to about 12g for a 6-8oz cup. I use organic half and half as much as possible or organic whole milk. Then organic cinnamon . I add quite a bit and a little nutmeg too. Give a good stir. And it's great.
I enjoy cinnamon in my coffee too but please be careful if you have a drip coffee maker. Cinnamon does not play well with others. Too much can gum up your grounds and lead to an overflow on the basket. I should say for the record I probably put in 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons when it happened to me (I really love cinnamon!) So just a few dashes is okay. and mix well through the dry grounds b4 you hit start. Anyway great channel, good advice, I discovered you yesterday as I was looking for some more academic info on alkaline diets.
I love cinnamon in my coffee, I like the chocolate a lot too. I like vanilla extract sometimes too. Real cream adds a few calories but is always good to. Vanilla ice cream is the best if you like cold coffee. If I need a boost to get through the afternoon, I'm going to continue to fix me some espresso, I can't eat/drink a lot of sugar at a time, but just enough sucrolose to taste is always a good thing. Butter in coffee,, never heard of and it doesn't sound good at all. I guess I'm doing some of the bad stuff, but it doesn't seem like the caffeine is bothering me that much. I'm going to go fix me some espresso just because I'm thinking and talking about it, and it's 4:03 in the afternoon where I'm at. It's going to be sooooooo good. Lmao.
Yay for cinnamon! I do that from time to time and also add baking soda to reduce the acidity. I did once fall for the butter in my coffee deal and stopped once it started to show up on my waistline. I'm curious to know what you really think about butter in coffee?
Add a tiny pinch of baking soda to your cup of coffee and it will Alkalize the Ph level to 8 or 9. I even tested this method with my own PH strips and was surprised it only took a tiny pinch that is tasteless when mixed in coffee!
I hope that 2pm rule is based on your sleep cycle. I'm a night shift worker and I'm asleep untill 4 or 5pm and go to sleep at around 8am. putting my "2pm" at 11pm, which is when I go in to work.
Great suggestions. Just not sure they're complete. How about a mention of Stevia as a healthy sweetener alternative. Also, no mention of adding coconut oil and/or MCT oil or elaborating on why these, along with butter, may not be good additions. I have also found a combination of coffee and Teecino (a herbal coffee substitute) allows you to reduce the amount of coffee you use and thus reducing the amount of caffeine. I use a heaping scoop of both to 8-10 cups of water for a rich blend.
I do all the above and swear by it. I recently started adding a teaspoon of macha tea to my coffee as well and that really works well. In my weight loss program Stevia is the only sweetener I approve of.
Sprinkle on top to taste if you're adding it to your cup, it won't take much. I personally add mine right into the coffee maker basket with the coffee. Mix it in a little and you're good to go, fresh coffee in the morning with the wonderful hint of cinnamon. I use a drip coffee maker, but you can do the same with a perk or bodum maker.
I like to add cardamom too, it's a great combination. The warmth and sweetness of the cinnamon and the spicy, somewhat sharp taste of cardamom combined with coffee... I'm gonna go make myself a cup now.
I grow my own stevia so I know its the real thing....but I do not like it in coffee. I use it in my own herbal teas all the time, fresh squeezed lemon aid and so forth, but I just do not like the coffee and stevia combo taste.
If you feel the need to sweeten your coffee, you might want to consider switching to a light roasted Ethiopian or Kenyan option. The sweetness and flavor from these coffees resemble tea like flavors that are so robust, adding anything else to to modify their flavor is totally unnecessary.
You can buy cocoa powder online or from any gloccery stores... buy unsweetened cocoa powder instead of normal cocoa powder because it is loaded with high sugar
Sweeteners. From my experience sweeteners make me want more of whatever i put them in. I think this is what makes them contribute to obesity. I drink more coffee if its sweet. Eat more cereal if its sweet. For me its not the sweetener per se that is the problem its the effect it has when added to other food. Yes i know in the case of black coffee it wont make much difference re calories, but i think you'll gather where i am coming from.
I dont get it, caffeine has no effect on me whatsoever. No matter what time I drink it, I can sleep right after if I am tired. It has happened multiple times to drink coffee at night and then sleep like a baby :P
Lucky! Wow I'm the opposite! I can't even have a cup of it without feeling some side effect. But I love the taste 😭. I stopped drinking it cause it was affecting my health too much.
check out Bulletproof coffee......claims are made that this is healthy....hard to say......I tried it for a while.....I gained weight drinking it sadly....but not saying it couldn't work for others.....It just didn't work for me...
Kevin Peralta __ In Tibet and other Himalayan nations they use clarified butter in their tea. Of course when you live in the Himalayas you can use it! Fun fact, I could not help but share ☕
Who in their right mind would choose for themselves or their children to imbibe aspartame anyway. Personally I'd like to see aspartame banned in the UK
Lynette Rall Yes this is very true. You should never mix too much carbs with fat. But the statement that butter in coffee is unhealthy, is just not true. Of course I meant that you shouldn't have any other ingredient Than butter, in your coffee. Well maybe coconut oil.
What I meant was butter in coffee is healthy, but only when you are on a HFLC-lifestyle (then you will actually LOSE weight having butter in your coffee). But should you be eating a normal diet which is always loaded with carbs, then butter in your coffee will make you put on weight.
I take my homemade coffee with cinnamon, a little stevia, a bit of coconut oil and a dash of cream. It's such a treat ^_^
“don’t drink coffee late in the day!!!”
me: drinks coffee at 12:30am before going to sleep 😂😂
Why😲
U are not alone lol
Thank you for the tips, Joe. Adding cinnamon to the coffee grounds would be a great benefit for my dad who had a stroke about 2-3 years ago. Good thing he likes cinnamon.
we often add cinnamon powder to our basket of dry coffee prior to brewing. Delish!
Love your video's and newsletters by the way, I do learn something from them. Lol. Thank you.

what about using a little stevia in your coffee instead of sugar or artificial sweeteners
Its fine
Would love to know if Vanilla Extract is an acceptable additive, especially in regards to a ketogenic diet.
Add a tiny pinch of baking soda to your cup of coffee and it will Alkalize the Ph level to 8 or 9. I even tested this method with my own PH strips and was surprised it only took a tiny pinch that is tasteless when mixed in coffee!
I’m going to try that.

Would cream and no sugar be a healthy alternative? Or should I take my coffee black?

hey bro, you look like Indian cricket captain virat kohli, 😊😊😊anyway, like your videos and voice too
I've been adding cinnamon to my coffee for years, you can't beat it!
how much cinnamon?
hi I use about 1 quarter of a tea spoon my self

Mark Stewart that’s a good idea I haven’t thought of that thank you for sharing
Coffee with bitter cocoa. Sounds as very tough start of the day :-D I got it
add coconut butter with the cocoa its a lot less bitter
I'm drinking cocoa in my coffee now. Real good.
Would stevia be a healthy alternative sweetener to sugar?
Yes absolutely. It's one of the best.
Sweet! (Pun intended) Thanks!
As a matter of fact you can simply buy your own stevia plant or grow from seed. The leaves are quite sweet.compared to white sugar.
I grow my own stevia so I know its the real thing....but I do not like it in coffee. I use it in my own herbal teas all the time, fresh squeezed lemon aid and so forth, but I just do not like the coffee and stevia combo taste.
I should probably do that. I'll need to find some seeds.
Very nice and helpful

Another gem of truth!
I drink coffee at night and i sleep like a baby lol
Nice to know I am drinking my coffee properly! I am going to try adding cinnamon though, that sounds intriguing.
How about using a little milk stevia cinnamon and clove , is that alright?
Where did you get that pointer shirt???
one coffee in a day with grass fed butter is fine if used as a meal replacement
I've been doing all of it except for cocoa. I wonder where I can get that.
You can buy cocoa powder online or from any gloccery stores... buy unsweetened cocoa powder instead of normal cocoa powder because it is loaded with high sugar
I like your explain and your voice
is there any way to shut to "food for reward " pathway?
What if the only sugar i take is with coffee, is it still bad?
what do you think about adrenal dysfonction and belly fat?
Sweeteners. From my experience sweeteners make me want more of whatever i put them in. I think this is what makes them contribute to obesity. I drink more coffee if its sweet.

lucky you lo....
silanthaler thought I was the only one!
Me too
Lucky! Wow I'm the opposite! I can't even have a cup of it without feeling some side effect. But I love the taste 😭. I stopped drinking it cause it was affecting my health too much.
same i swear it makes fall asleep easier shiit
Is there any reason in particular you mention butter and why it is not healthy
check out Bulletproof coffee......claims are made that this is healthy....hard to say......I tried it for a while.....I gained weight drinking it sadly....but not saying it couldn't work for others.....It just didn't work for me...
Trevor Regay What else did you eat then? And for how long did you try? You can gain weight in the beginning
Kevin Peralta __ In Tibet and other Himalayan nations they use clarified butter in their tea. Of course when you live in the Himalayas you can use it!
Fun fact, I could not help but share ☕
Ghee is incredible! Much better than butter
I really enjoy your informational videos....thanks!
thanks
Hahaha trying telling attorneys to not drink coffee after 2pm!
What can we do about the high acidity in coffee?
I pinch of baking soda
A pinch of baking soda lowers the acidity in coffee.
It’s the painful truth. Well put.
Damn, I love my pump of sugar free Torani or Davinci french vanilla syrup. Well, C'est la vie.
what about adding stevia to your coffee?
I agree, artificial sweeteners are definitely not good
I drip feed Espresso 24/7.
BOL!! This comment is underratingly funny

We have reviewed some awesome coffees on our channel, feel free to check them out
You look like virat kohli
Forgot coconut oil!!!!!
Butter in coffee? Who made this up? Prob some American.
Your mom when she used butter as lubricant cuntttt
Lol butter is not for coffee
You’re cute 😉❣️
butter in coffee is healthy
....but only when your carbohydrate intake is kept low.
Lynette Rall Yes this is very true. You should never mix too much carbs with fat. But the statement that butter in coffee is unhealthy, is just not true. Of course I meant that you shouldn't have any other ingredient Than butter, in your coffee. Well maybe coconut oil.

Lynette Rall Totally with you on that! I am on a LCHF diet
