[What is Phytosterol?]

Phytosterols are compounds found in plants that resemble cholesterol. The National Institutes of Heath report that there are over 200 different phytosterols, and the highest concentrations of phytosterols are found naturally in vegetable oils, beans and nuts. Their benefits are so recognized that foods are being fortified with phytosterols. At the supermarket, you may see orange juice or margarine advertising phytosterol contents. After reviewing the health benefits, you may want to add phytosterol-rich foods to your diet.

[Benefits]

Cholesterol-Lowering Benefits

The most well-known, and scientifically proven, benefit of phytosterols is their ability to help lower cholesterol. A phytosterol is a plant compound that is similar to cholesterol. A study in the 2002 issue of “Annual Review of Nutrition” explains that phytosterols actually compete for absorption with cholesterol in the digestive tract. While they prevent the absorption of regular dietary cholesterol, they themselves are not easily absorbed, which leads to a total lower cholesterol level. The cholesterol-lowering benefit does not end with a good number on your blood work report. Having lower cholesterol leads to other benefits, such as a reduced risk for heart disease, stroke and heart attacks.

Cancer Protection Benefits

Phytosterols have also been found to help protect against the development of cancer. The July 2009 issue of the” European Journal of Clinical Nutrition” offers encouraging news in the fight against cancer. Researchers at the University of Manitoba in Canada report that there is evidence that phytosterols help prevent ovarian, breast, stomach and lung cancer. Phytosterols do this by preventing the production of cancer cells, stopping the growth and spread of cells that are already in existence and actually encouraging the death of cancer cells. Their high anti-oxidant levels are believed to be one way phytosterols help fight cancer. An anti-oxidant is a compound that fights free radical damage, which is negative effects on the body produced by cells that are unhealthy.

Skin Protection Benefits

A lesser known benefit of phytosterols involves skin care. One of the contributing factors in the aging of the skin is the breakdown and loss of collagen — the main component in connective skin tissue — and sun exposure is a major contributor to the problem. As the body ages, it is not able to produce collagen as it once did. The German medical journal “Der Hautarzt” reports a study in which various topical preparations were tested on skin for 10 days. The topical treatment that showed anti-aging benefits to the skin was the one that contained phytosterols and other natural fats. It is reported that phytosterols not only stopped the slow-down of collagen production that can be caused by the sun, it actually encouraged new collagen production.

Video Summary:

Why “Bulletproof Coffee” Is B.S

https://www.SeanNal.com/articles/nutrition/bulletproof-coffee-review.php

What is Bulletproof Coffee?

It’s an “upgraded” coffee drink intended to be used as a replacement for breakfast.

The Bulletproof Coffee recipe is as follows…

250-500ml coffee using filtered water
2 tablespoons grassfed butter
1-2 tablespoons MCT oil

The supposed benefits of Bulletproof Coffee are that it improves cognitive function and increases fat loss due to the CLA content of the butter and the thermogenic/appetite suppressing effect of the MCT oil.

But is Bulletproof Coffee healthy and/or effective for losing fat?

Here are 3 reasons why Bulletproof Coffee is a bad idea…

1) Bulletproof Coffee is very high in total calories and fat relative to its volume.

Each cup contains 450 calories and about 50 grams of fat.

If your goal is to lose fat, then you need to be maintaining a calorie deficit over time by burning more calories than you consume.

Waking up and downing 450 calories and 50 grams of fat in liquid form is not going to be conducive to maintaining a calorie deficit since it’s very calorie dense and won’t fill you up.

There is also no conclusive evidence to show that CLA or MCT oil have any significant fat burning effects in humans. Even if they did, the effect would be very modest and wouldn’t come anywhere near offsetting the 450 calories in the Bulletproof Coffee itself.

2) Bulletproof Coffee is very low in essential nutrients.

Aside from a small amount of vitamin A and K found in the butter, each cup is basically devoid of any real nutritional benefit.

If you’re using this as a replacement for one of your daily meals, then you’ll probably be stripping away anywhere from about 20-30% of your daily nutrient intake assuming you’re following a standard fat loss diet somewhere in the 1500-2500 calorie range.

3) Bulletproof Coffee is very high in saturated fat.

This isn’t guaranteed to be a problem, but the health effects of very high saturated fat intake are still not known, and given that Bulletproof Coffee probably won’t benefit you anyway, I can’t see any reason to take the risk.

All in all, Bulletproof Coffee is really nothing more than marketing hype and I’d highly recommend skipping the oil and butter and sticking to good old plain coffee instead.
