just want to thank you for such great information. I have lost 57 pounds since I have started watching your channels. I feel better than i have in 30 years!
How about my mix? tbsp butter tbsp coconut cream 1/4tsp redmonds two "squirts" stevia 2 "dashes" each of cinnamon, turmeric and cacao 16oz fresh pressed coffee (I prefer medium roast for the caffeine) put it all in the blender (I have a cup that just goes right on the blender) I think this is AMAZING and it keeps me going for hours if eating is just not convenient. I'll do 48-72 hr fasts using this as my fast breaker. Anyway, another interesting and informative video. Thanks Thomas.
Here's some added information for this video. Coconut milk and coconut cream has a very short shelf life once you open the can and it starts to go sour fairly quickly but the cool thing is as it gets sour it turns into basically coconut yogurt which taste pretty good and actually is becoming very popular in supermarkets. So after a few days if you keep it in the fridge it's going to get sour but it is still edible. I have tested it out. Since the process of getting sour is caused by various potentially gut friendly bacteria I would assume that the health benefits of coconut milk probably increase as it turns into coconut yogurt.
@@mikeganer6257 yes that is most likely coconut milk with some kind of preservative in it. The majority of Brands add things like sorbate or guar gum Etc but if it's just made of coconuts and water they tend to turn very quickly
After a few days in my fridge, I pour the remaining coconut cream/milk into an ice cube tray and freeze it. To use, I simply melt it over low/med heat and use the preferred amount in my coffee.
I’m so glad you made this video! I am trying to help my mom get off the toxic “flavored creamer” (which actually is all bad oils and has very little cream in it) and said I’d do a deep dive on healthy hacks for her creamer. Yay!! Thanks mucho!
I used your tips to create a “Mexican Chocolate” creamer...cacao, cinnamon, and cayenne, together with or without ghee, or coconut cream. It’s delicious. You don’t even need to add it to coffee, if added to coconut milk,either hot or cold, makes a delicious chocolate milk. Can’t wait to try the vanilla ghee and chocolate mint options. Costco also sells the big bag of Lairds basic creamer too... Thanks for the tips!
Thrive market has an awesome Vanilla Bean Ghee that I put in my coffee. I’m also a huge fan of the unsweetened Laird creamer and have been using it for years. Just make sure you have a frother because it doesn’t break down really easily.
I'm addicted to the Laird creamers. They are really amazing. My wife and I have a desert coffee at night. Chocolate or Mint chocolate Lairds with a quarter tsp of lakota gold, a tsp of oatmilk,and a hit of cinnamon. It whips up into such a fantastic creamy Hot Chocolate/Coffee drink. Sooo damn good.
On the video the bag didn't show any added sugars but when I looked up the original laird the ingredient list showed Coconut sugar in the list... is keto friendly?
me too! I am going to try the coconut milk, tho I am actually doing carnivore [ lite ] not strict. I will do a small salad at times. I miss my CREAM! I can tech have it on carnivore, but, as a woman, trying to shed pounds, cream & cheese slow it way down.
Thank you for this! I am a big coffee drinker and gave up traditional creamers a long time ago. This will be great to try these ideas. Thanks for always putting out great content to help us all live healthier lives.
Thomas, You have gotten some of us to health, weight goal, and off T2D medication. What the heck do I need to do to keep keto for life and build muscle along with Intermittent Fasting to get the Autophagy benefits including reducing the Excess skin and building lean muscle for over 60 year old Diabetic that is back to High school football weight "receiver not linebacker" but not shape. please remember older abused body and beaten up joints.
Just keep it up, Phil. Your body is working on it! It just takes longer when you're older. Also, I've heard that you should walk at least 10,000 steps a day to lose the loose (extra) skin faster.
I use MCT oil and heavy whipping cream. I bought some ghee when i first started keto back in November and i just couldn't get past the smell lol. I think i might try again!
I would like to see your take on the different types of cinnamon out there. Cassia (Indonesian, Chinese and Saigon) and Ceylon. Which is better in terms of health and benefits? I've been reading that Ceylon is the true cinnamon and it's better for your health. I've been using Ceylon for awhile now.
SimplyHuman Yes, some but it’s about all the sugar I consume. I’m not really a sugar lover. Nor do I love salt. I’m drawn to flavors. Just can’t have straight black coffee. Gives me bad breath lol. 😂
Great video... I’ve been searching for this... thank you for breaking this down Thomas... I just tried Laird it took a minute to get used to, then I loved it... The quality is perfect!
I just put in my first Laird order! Thanks so much for the tips! I was making my own almond creamer every week thinking that I was doing the right thing.
Nice info! Thank you Thomas. I do typically go for black coffee. Though occasionally on a lazy weekend I like to cream and sweeten things up. Good before long runs. It would be interesting to hear more on the quality of the coffee itself. Origins, roasting, grinding of the beans...the various types of brewing techniques...it's a whole world and I am positive there's health implications on the various levels. When you think about the fact it's something so many people imbibe every.single.day. it's got to be something putting some focus/emphasis on is worthwhile to do, right? And go!...(haha).
What I've learned is that coffee beans go rancid after about 5 days so fresh roasting a quantity you use in that time is best. Coffee roasters vary in price and it's not a difficult skill to learn with a bit of practice. The green beans keep for a long time so you can order in bulk. That said, coffee also has negative effects on the body and shouldn't be consumed in large amounts (more than12 oz).
I usually don't drink coffee outside my own home, but after seeing this, I guess I will eventually order a cold brew coffee with a chocolate, ginger, mint coconut creamer at some local cafe, just for fun. I would be amazed if they can actually do this.
Being a total science nerd, I’m curious about the actual scientific amounts that can induce the effects discussed here. As I watched, it’s hard to believe that a tiny dash of cayenne in a batch of any creamer can have a significant effect. Also, are those store bought desiccated versions of spices therapeutic or just over-processed? Great info; I’d just like to see more about efficacy. Thanks!
How in the world did you learn EVERYTHING you know!!!!! I just had bariatric surgery and trying to do life over again for myself. I’m trying to do everything you teach in the videos but my husband says “ that’s to expensive” for better meats, eggs, and products. And it’s frustrating because I want to go in full force, I had the surgery for a complete change! Any way my ? Is have you looked into Thrive Le-Vel products? I just started the three step program hoping they are better quality and ingredients. Please if you can let me know, thank you😃
I asked for a cold brew at Starbucks, and they just put hot coffee with a bunch of ice in it. My problem is this: the good stuff in coffee doesn't resurrect after being burnt out! I like cold brews because I get more healthy stuff out of them, but...
I find it really hard to find coconut cream or milk without the emulsifiers (polysorbate 60 or carrageenan) which are carcinogenic. Have you done or could you do a video discussing the potential hazards of these? Thanks.
So how does this eventually taste? Is it sweet to not really? I have a sweet tooth that’s why I use creamer. Please let me know which is the sweetest Laird creamer
protein powders can work well as a "creamer" as well as flavoring, though not sure about the coffee's thermic effects upon the branched chained macro lipidity dipities or the matrix of pulsing microscopic globular squiggly things. so take that as my caveat emptor. as well i'd mix my coffee into my shakes. huge thanks
Hi Thomas, my understand is that you can get rid of most of the phytic acid and other anti-nutrients in nuts by soaking them overnight in salty water. Do you have any additional information on this?
I got a feeling this man swallowed a smartphone one night while he wasn't paying attention because no one can have that much knowledge at his fingertips
He has a couple guys (one in london) who research for him and he then takes that research and makes videos from them. That's the gist of it. It's not rocket science.
Thomas, would Banana peel tea be an adequate sweetener for coffee? I’m not sure how much sugar or carbs are in the tea itself once it’s been boiled then simmered for a good while (30 min or so). Perhaps you can make a video that would include the nutritional value of banana peel tea, and perhaps if it’s worth including the actual banana or not. And just how much nutrients you can roughly get from the tea and how many actual bananas to use for this purpose.. that would be awesome 😎

yummy!
My creamer of choice...Nut pods. Almond, coconut milk and vanilla. No sugar, no carbs and tastes good...
I’m that crazy guy who would add all of them into one coffee to reap all benefits 🤣🤣
Crazy girl would do it too.. :-)
Me too!
Drinking it now! ROTFL!
Was thinking the same thing 💯🤣👌
That would become my ”panacea creamer". I have a panacea powder for salad dressing, soups, and wherever else I decide to put it. 😊

I’ve kept coconut milk and cream in the fridge for 2+ weeks with no problem
@@mikeganer6257 yes that is most likely coconut milk with some kind of preservative in it. The majority of Brands add things like sorbate or guar gum Etc but if it's just made of coconuts and water they tend to turn very quickly
Have you tried putting the yogurt in your coffee?
That’s why it’s unpopular in my kitchen. 🤣😂🤣

Breakfast fun for my forever bride and me as we get our day started. Knowledge is power.
Thrive market has an awesome Vanilla Bean Ghee that I put in my coffee. I’m also a huge fan of the unsweetened Laird creamer and have been using it for years. Just make sure you have a frother because it doesn’t break down really easily.
What’s the brand of the vanilla ghee?

@@cactusladysouth1000 yes, I went to order it, it had about 14 carbs per serving
Yes im trying to cut dairy from my keto lifestyle! I like that you have info on foods we can still eat without all the dairy
me too! I am going to try the coconut milk, tho I am actually doing carnivore [ lite ] not strict. I will do a small salad at times. I miss my CREAM! I can tech have it on carnivore, but, as a woman, trying to shed pounds, cream & cheese slow it way down.
I just bought some heavy whipping cream for creamer and now I’m intrigued with this video....
I made a homemade white chocolate peppermint creamer with half & half white chocolate chips,salt,vanilla,peppermint extract.
I'm hooked on C8 MCT oil, sea salt and stevia in my coffee whipped up in the vitamix.
I do not drink coffee; I'm not really an adult.
There are many wonderful teas to try and I'm sure you can add in any of the creamers described here or just MCT oil with a pinch of Himalayan salt.
Thank you for this! I am a big coffee drinker and gave up traditional creamers a long time ago. This will be great to try these ideas. Thanks for always putting out great content to help us all live healthier lives.
I heard drinking too much coffee affects the height , makes us smarter but also shorter. It depletes calcium.
@@Note-dy6yd prob depends how much coffee. I have a half cup to cup in the am, but not every day.
I bought Laird creamer today . I haven’t tried it yet- but I have all of this in kitchen will give it a try trying to lose 30.
I watch your videos all the time. I love them. I would have never known to make something like this for my morning coffee
Thanks Thomas I needed this - trying to get away from heavy cream...really helpful I love turmeric!!!

Niki Mize smell? I just bought some🤧
Add cinnamon
Grass fed dairy/ghee has that taste/smell od cow butt. I cannot get past it. Grass fed beef can be pretty nasty too if cooked too fast.
@@nancy9478 Ground Also,grass fed beef tastes greasy to me, although i know it is supposed to be better
Try vegan ghee by Nutiva or trade Joe's
I would like to see your take on the different types of cinnamon out there. Cassia (Indonesian, Chinese and Saigon) and Ceylon. Which is better in terms of health and benefits? I've been reading that Ceylon is the true cinnamon and it's better for your health. I've been using Ceylon for awhile now.
I read that abaout ceylon too, bought a big pack and its lasted for years 😂
@@chrismccaffrey8256 where did you buy it?
Ceylon
Ceylon, Ceylon
Coconut cream and Perfect Keto chocolate collagen! Yummy 😋
I do this too! Whip it up in the blender with your coffee and it's awesome :3
Vanilla and coconut are legal highs. Oh and coffee. Excellent presentation.
Thank you for your smart ideas. I add raw yoke to my coffee and it tastes wonderful/ not always/ but when there is no cream in the fridge.
Coffee creamer info ~ wooooo hoooooo thank you💜
This is really cool Thomas, thanks! Huge Karma Kafe Keto Creamer fans here yet always love learning ideas to make our own keto creations. Cheers ☕️
great video this morning i made a cinnamon ghee green tea with turmeric!
I can’t help but believe you just by looking at your muscles ❤
Thanks Thomas! I needed this. I was looking to substitute my morning coffee. I typically drink coffee with regular milk and no sugar.
Sugar filled milk. Lol jk
SimplyHuman Yes, some but it’s about all the sugar I consume. I’m not really a sugar lover. Nor do I love salt. I’m drawn to flavors. Just can’t have straight black coffee. Gives me bad breath lol. 😂
@@vanezaatitsallaboutmechann6558 lol
I absolutely LOVE ghee in my coffee!
Can you please do a video of what hair products, soap, lotions etc etc are healthy & which ones to avoid please?
Great video... I’ve been searching for this... thank you for breaking this down Thomas... I just tried Laird it took a minute to get used to, then I loved it... The quality is perfect!
I love coconut milk in coffee!

(The music interrupting halfway was odd & distracting).
Sprinkled in cayenne today and it was a punchy delight!
I usually go with ghee, coconut cream, cacao, vanilla extract, stevia and sometimes turmeric
Is it sweet?
Wow, Thomas! This video is GOLD!
Man, you can talk fast! It's a super power!
His mind works so quickly! Health goals, for sure!
Have you seen Alan Roberts on Every Damn Day Fitness?? Lol that's a speed talker 😂
Thank you for all that you do. That T shirt 👍🏿
Please do more about hemp... seeds/ milk/ hulled hemp/ protein powder. Cheers 👍
Trying all of these recipes! Trying to get the most out of my cup without having the same boring thing! Made your chocolate cacao recipe it’s great!
MCT oil melted my disposable, styrofoam cups. Butter and Ghee probably weren’t good ideas either, but never broke down styrofoam on me.
Yet again another fantastic video of information. Thanks Thomas and team😊🇨🇦
I can’t wait to try all of these! Thanks Thomas. 🤗

You can make cold brew at home.
@@aaronphillips402 I know that. It is still a lot of effort for a freaking coffee. I just stick to black and hot.

No coffee for me..hot green tea with to keep my fasting going👍
Great ideas! 😊 Thank you
Lairds is fantastic! I’ve used the turmeric one often 😋
This was great! I wonder about combining cacao, cinnamon and cayenne for like a mexican mocha / hot chocolate vibe?
Sounds like a treat. Good idea.
Love the shirt!!!
This is making me want another coffee.
"Vanilla-y." I love it.
I asked for a cold brew at Starbucks, and they just put hot coffee with a bunch of ice in it. My problem is this: the good stuff in coffee doesn't resurrect after being burnt out! I like cold brews because I get more healthy stuff out of them, but...
Should have taken it back. They have an excellent cold brew.

why make a video? just get organic pure....
Thrive market - target brand
How about cocoa butter? I am using it now and I love its taste.
I am not quite trusting processed powders.
Great video, thank you, Thomas! :)
So how does this eventually taste? Is it sweet to not really? I have a sweet tooth that’s why I use creamer. Please let me know which is the sweetest Laird creamer
Thanks man I've been needing tips on alternatives to making coffee!
Add these! me reading as ADD and thinking this might help with my ADD
Thank you for the valuable info
Thanks I am going to try a few of these😊
YES, even more alternatives to my favourite drink! Awesome!
I do coconut cream and cinnamon in my coffee
protein powders can work well as a "creamer" as well as flavoring, though not sure about the coffee's thermic effects upon the branched chained macro lipidity dipities or the matrix of pulsing microscopic globular squiggly things. so take that as my caveat emptor.
as well i'd mix my coffee into my shakes.
huge thanks
They all look like they could be good.
Great info! Can you mix all of it? I think I’d like the combined flavors!
You too bi_ ch😉
Hi Thomas, my understand is that you can get rid of most of the phytic acid and other anti-nutrients in nuts by soaking them overnight in salty water. Do you have any additional information on this?

WOW! So much valuable information. Thank you. Have you tried the Laird pumpkin spice creamer?
NO, I tried to order this eve, and they are sold out
I’m trying the coconut milk cacao this morning.
I love this video. Do you have any information for people post cholecystectomy since it plays such a large role in digestion???

I swear everything I want to know there is a Thomas DeLaur video for that lol.

What about Nut Pods? I've been using it as a coffee creamer. Is that good?

I have been using int delight almond joy for the longest time but now I cant have any dairy so coconut milk has been a somewhat good substitute 😟😟😟
Hi! Newbie here...which is better and why...a2 milk or pasture raised grass fed milk?
Ima have to pass on the cayenne in my coffee
Try it...you might. be surprised.
Could you please please please talk about Keto meal replacements like KetoChow????
In Mexico plp add whiskey to their coffee. Drunk and wired!!!
No that’s a lie
