Yes, Thrive Coffee can serve as a pre-workout energy boost due to its combination of caffeine, butter, and MCT oil.
The 120mg of caffeine per serve can provide an energy kick, while the fats from the butter and MCT oil may offer sustained energy during your workout.
However, individual responses to coffee can vary, so it's essential to assess how your body reacts to it before incorporating it into your pre-workout routine.
MCT oil is brain fuel. One study suggested that MCT oil could supply the brain with up to 8-9% more energy. This can contribute to increased focus and mental clarity. It has also been shown to improve cognitive function in hypoglycemic (low blood sugar) conditions.
Additional research has found that the use of MCTs can even help improve memory problems, including among those with Alzheimer’s disease. A 2018 study found that the use of MCTs while following the ketogenic diet helped patients with Alzheimer’s experience improvements in symptoms.
At dawn, our bodies naturally prepare to awaken as hormones like cortisol and growth hormone stimulate glucose production in the liver, providing the energy needed to start the day. Adding sodium to this process triggers a hydration efficiency mechanism—the sodium-glucose co-transport system—allowing fluids and electrolytes to swiftly move from the intestines into the bloodstream, ensuring rapid and effective hydration at the cellular level. The first hour after rising, which follows the overnight fast, presents an optimal period for nutrient uptake. This is the prime moment for hydration, emphasising the crucial balance of minerals and water for overall health.
Who should consider starting their day with an electrolyte boost?
Here’s a brief overview:
Apart from the morning, another critical time to consider electrolyte supplementation is around exercise (or any form of excessive sweating). Here's why and when it's beneficial:
Coenzyme Q10 or otherwise known as CoQ10 naturally occurs in the heart organ meat. Heart is the richest source of CoQ10 and it is believed to support blood pressure, heart health and mitochondria in your cells. 💚
Respected Functional Health and Ancestral clinician Chris Kresser states: “CoQ10 is vital for energy production and prevention of oxidative stress, and people with chronic health conditions are often deficient. There are also some genetic factors that can impede the biosynthesis of CoQ10, making it more important for those people to have a source of pre-formed CoQ10 in their diet".
