New trend from Ayurveda to modern coffee tables
Morning habits play an important role in shaping the spirit of a new day. Drinking black coffee with ghee on an empty stomach is becoming a popular trend for many people.
This combination originates from Ayurveda, traditional Indian medicine, where ghee is considered a "golden food" because it is rich in healthy fats, aids digestion and nourishes the body. When combined with black coffee, which is rich in antioxidants and caffeine, you will have a drink that is both delicious and nutritious.
According to nutritionist Garima Goyal (India): Ghee butter contains important nutrients such as butyrate and omega-3 fatty acids, which help the brain and digestive system stay healthy. When combined with caffeine in coffee, this is a great formula for alertness and sustainable energy".
Health benefits of drinking black coffee mixed with ghee
International studies and nutritionists have shown many potential benefits:
Boosts metabolism: Caffeine promotes fat burning, while MCT (Medium Chain Triglycerides) in ghee helps convert fat into energy effectively according to the National Institutes of Health.
Improve cognition: The combination of caffeine and omega-3 helps increase concentration, reducing mental fatigue.
Sustainable energy release: Healthy fats slow down the absorption of caffeine, avoiding a rapid "energy spike".
Support digestion: Ghee stimulates digestive secretions, while polyphenols in coffee protect the intestines according to the Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism.
Antioxidants: Both coffee and ghee are rich in antioxidants, which help reduce oxidative stress and the risk of chronic diseases.
Regulates blood sugar: Coffee improves insulin sensitivity, ghee slows down sugar absorption according to the International Journal of Organic Sciences.
Reduces inflammation: According to Prostaglandin & Lipid Mediators, butyrate in ghee combined with polyphenols from coffee helps reduce inflammation
Weight management: MCT creates a feeling of fullness for a long time, supporting portion control.
Improve mood: The rich taste with caffeine stimulates dopamine, serotonin, which helps the spirit to relax.
Stay hydrated: A cup of warm coffee with ghee still contributes to hydration and a gentle start to the day.
Expert Garima Goyal emphasizes: The important thing is to use it in moderation. Ghee butter is high in calories, so adjust the portion sizes to suit your body's needs."
