Bulletproof Brain Octane Oil Review – My Favorite Supplement

One of the reasons this is my favorite supplement is because it comes from coconuts only. Yes, 100% of Brain Octane comes from the coconuts you see up in the trees. There is absolutely nothing else added in. I know what you might be thinking. Why don’t you just buy coconuts or coconut water instead? You will have to read my Bulletproof Brain Octane Oil review to really understand.

There are only a handful of companies in the world that make this supplement. The reason for this is that it is a much harder and more expensive process to make the supplement.

 

WHAT IS BULLETPROOF BRAIN OCTANE OIL

You may have heard of MCT Oil before, which stands for Medium-Chain Triglyceride. They are basically man-made fats that are processed in a lab from coconut oils. Your body can convert them quickly into energy. This is why I recommend this supplement to many of my clients when they say they have low energy levels. This supplement is also great for a low-carb diet.

Purpose of Triglycerides: Stored as fat or used as energy. The energy can be around twice as much as what carbohydrates and protein provide.

Important: The risk of heart disease increases if your triglyceride levels get too high. I recommend you get a blood test called a lipid panel. With this test, you will know what levels your triglycerides are as well as cholesterol.

There are three types of Triglycerides, and they all have their different benefits.

1. Short-chain fatty acids 0-5 carbon atoms are the main source of energy in your colon cell lining.
2. Medium-chain fatty acids 6-12 carbon atoms are unsaturated or saturated fatty acids found in high concentrations in foods like the one this article is about…coconuts!
3. Long-chain fatty acids 13-21 carbon atoms are found in most oils and fats. This is where the majority of the fat in your diet you eat is.

My personal experience with Brain Octane was very high energy throughout the day.  I wasn’t getting the type of heart-racing energy you can get from a good pre-workout supplement. The energy levels were very steady with this MCT oil.

Maybe you have heard of Ketones before?  If not, they are basically fuel made in your liver when there is not enough glucose. Glucose comes from foods you eat and is the main type of sugar in your blood.

To go a little further, they are a form of carbohydrate called simple carbohydrates. MCTs go straight to your liver and are either used immediately as energy or turned into Ketones.

I will not get too far off the path with this, but if you are interested in learning more about simple carbohydrates and if you should consume them. I have a separate article explaining what are the bad carbs and which ones you should stay away from.

There are 4 different types of Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs)

1. Caproic acid (C6)
2. Caprylic acid (C8) is The most ketogenic (KETO) part of the coconut. This gives your body and brain a more noticeable boost! Only 7% of the acid is found in coconut.
3. Capric acid (C10)
4. Lauric acid (C12) Around 50% of this acid is found in coconut.

When you buy a basic MCT Oil supplement, it will usually have all 4 of these. Each one of these has great benefits. Overall though, C8 is by far the highest quality MCT. This is why Bulletproof Brain Octane is so amazing.

Bulletproof’s Brain Octane ingredients are ONLY C8!

 

FUN FACT: Indonesia, India and the Philippines produce around 70% of the world’s coconut oil.

 

HOW TO USE BRAIN OCTANE COCONUT OIL

Another reason this is my favorite all-time supplement….It’s flavorless!! I know that doesn’t sound so exciting, but in this case, the positives outweigh the negatives. Think about it; without a flavor means you can literally put brain octane oil on and in ANYTHING.

1. Use it in your morning coffee or tea.
2. Add brain-octane oil to your smoothies.
3. Make sauces, marinades, and salad dressings with it.
4. Pour it over any meals.

I personally pour brain-octane oil into my coffee as a morning ritual, so I will never forget it. VERY IMPORTANT start with a low dose, like one teaspoon and work your way up. To this day I have never had an upset stomach from taking Brain Octane oil.

Although it is common for people that overdo it, to find themselves running to the bathroom. You could have an upset stomach or even diarrhea, is what I’m trying to say.

 

BOOST YOUR WORKOUT

Brain octane Oil has definitely boosted my workout and energy levels. This was a surprise to me at first because on a low-carb diet, I found it hard to find the energy to work out. Actual studies are showing it may help your overall athletic performance. One MCT exercise study was shown to improve skeletal muscle function.

You can actually train your body to burn MCT fat for fuel. This will help you from feeling fatigued after all your blood sugar has been depleted. This has worked for me versus getting crashes from glucose high carbohydrates.  The ketones quickly give my mind and body a boost with no crash.

These Ketones also help with something called mitochondria. You may remember this word from science class. Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell. Your brain produces more mitochondria with the ketones and in return gives your muscles more energy for your workout!

I recommend after you build a little tolerance to start drinking around 1 or 2 tablespoons of Brain Octane oil about 20 minutes before you hit the gym. Please let me know in the comments below your results and how you feel.

 

MAKE BULLETPROOF COFFEE WITH BRAIN OCTANE OIL

You have two options here.

Option 1 is just to add Brain Octane  Oil to your coffee.

Option 2 is the real Bulletproof coffee way. Also known as Keto coffee or butter coffee. This is made with very-quality fats to fuel your mind and energize your body. As crazy as it sounds, you will feel just as full as when you eat a carbohydrate-rich breakfast. Also, think about how much quicker it is to make this bulletproof coffee versus cooking a full breakfast.

HOW TO MAKE BULLETPROOF COFFEE

• 1 tsp – 2 tbsp of Brain Octane C8 MCT Oil.

BRAIN OCTANE OIL BENEFITS

Personally, I noticed the increased energy the most. I feel very focused and have less brain fog when taking Brain octane oil.  I know it is not a physical benefit, but if you are always busy. The benefits of how quickly you can take Brain Octane oil when rushed in the morning are amazing.

• Increased energy
• Increased fat burning
• Increased Cognitive performance
• Decreased craving for food

Increased energy is something I noticed immediately with brain octane oil, and my favorite benefits of this coconut oil. I can personally say the increased fat-burning ketone energy was a thing for me.

My energy and brain function made it very easy for me to feel motivated for a workout and burn TONS of calories. I felt like I had much more brain power.

When it comes to the decreased cravings for food after taking bulletproof brain octane oil, I was skeptical at first.  Although after a few weeks of taking the MCT oil, I really noticed my cravings were lowered.

I do want to point out that brain octane may give you fat-burning ketone energy, but this doesn’t guarantee increased fat loss.  If you are in ketosis, it will tell you how much ketone energy you currently have. Although ketosis will not tell you how much fat you are burning.

 

HOW LONG DOES BULLETPROOF BRAIN OCTANE OIL LAST

This will depend on a few factors, like your tolerance and what size bulletproof brain octane oil you buy.  You basically have six different options.

1. Brain Octane oil packets come in a fifteen-count.  These are very convenient for traveling. Each packet is .5 ounces.
2. Three-ounce bottle of brain octane oil.  This is your smallest option of all and wouldn’t last too long but it may be a good way to give this MCT oil a try and see if you like it.
3. Sixteen-ounce bottle of brain octane oil.
4. Thirty-two-ounce bottle of brain octane oil.
5. A three-pack of sixteen-ounce bottles.
6. The biggest option of all is this one. Three packs of Thirty Two ounce brain octane oil.

Personally, after I realized how well brain octane oil works, I buy in bulk because the three-ounce size is just too small and can be gone very quickly and leaving me with low ketone energy.

The brain octane oil benefits could potentially be borderline life-changing. I say this because I went from having no energy to feeling like superman all day.

BRAIN OCTANE OIL SIDE EFFECTS

Of course, keep in mind that most people do not experience these side effects from brain-octane oil. I have many friends taking this or have taken it. None of them experienced any side effects.

I’m assuming most people that do experience them, are starting with too much bulletproof brain octane oil. I want to remind you that this is 100% from a coconut. Although you can have too much brain octane, and if you do, then you may end up like the picture below.

• Diarrhea
• Cramps
• Nausea
• Bloating

Also, a good thing to note is the triglyceride levels in your body. This technically isn’t a side effect of this supplement if you are taking the proper amount. In general, you may already have high triglyceride amounts from eating some high-content fat foods.

BRAIN OCTANE OIL PRICE

The price is very fair, considering the extensive process of extracting just the C8 coconut oil. If you don’t believe me you can just read the over 16 thousand reviews that average 4.5. People love brain-octane oil!

You have a few options when it comes to the size of the bottle, as I mentioned above. I will break down the two options I have tried so far and the current price at the time of writing this.

Option 1:   3-ounce bottle for $7.45

Option 2: 16-ounce bottle for $18.27

If you are not too sure, maybe try the smaller size out at first.  As you can see though, the 16-ounce bottle of brain octane oil is a much better deal. The 16-ounce bottle will last you an entire month. A one-month supply of my all-time favorite supplement for under 20 dollars!

BULLETPROOF BRAIN OCTANE OIL ISN’T ORDINARY MCT OIL

I just want to make sure you understand there is a difference here.  You will see many MCT oil supplements online, but not many companies sell C8 MCT oil.

What is the difference?

The most common regular MCT oil has four medium-chain fatty acids. Those are C6, C8, C10, and C12 and can vary with how concentrated they are.

With C8 MCT oil, like the one bulletproof sells, it has to be almost 100% pure C8 which is the most ketogenic of all the MCT oil choices. If you were to compare the prices online of regular MCT oil to only C8 versions, you will see they are much cheaper.

The reason for this is that there is not much C8 in coconuts.   This is very highly refined coconut oil and a much more difficult and time-consuming process to make.  You could also buy some plain coconut oil and this C8 for and take each for a  period of time and see if you notice a difference.

Keep in mind even though this is great for a low-carb diet, the is high in calories since it is a healthy fat and more calories dense.

 

FINAL WORD

I guess this isn’t my typical review. More like me getting too excited writing this and turning it into a recommendation. Why not give it a try if you are feeling sluggish? This supplement wasn’t recommended to me. The reason I took a chance was based on the product’s title, along with brain octane oil being 100% from coconut oil.

My brain was feeling a little foggy, and my energy levels were low. Ok Ok, I will admit the 16,000 reviews also had something to do with it.

Brain Octane is a great supplement If you are on the Keto diet. I know the Keto diet is pretty popular, but I’m sure some of you are not too familiar with it. I wrote another article that will help you understand. Foods for Ketogenic diet.

Please leave me a comment below with your personal experience with bulletproof brain octane oil if you have one. I hope it has had or will have the same results with you that I have. This coconut oil works wonders for me, and it can work for you too!
