Rapid Fire Coffee Pods

This popular diet regimen limits carbohydrate intake in order to stimulate your body’s natural ability to use energy it has stored as a reserve (body fat). Without an adequate amount of glucose from carbs, your body begins breaking down fat for energy, a remarkable weight loss mechanism known as “ketosis.”

The body has two major energy sources – it burns glucose or ketones. Most people burn glucose because they are supplying a steady form of sugar, starches, and proteins that are converted into blood sugar. However, too much sugar, starches, and proteins can have adverse effects on the body.

Ketones are non-carbohydrate energy molecules that are converted from fatty acids in the body. Our bodies can make ketones from stored fat or from MCTs. Ketones are more readily generated in a keto diet (KD) which is characterized by high fat, moderate protein, low carbohydrate ( ~75:20:5), or from keto supplements. After approximately a week on the keto diet with the help of MCT oil consumption, the body’s metabolism shifts from burning glucose to burning fatty acids which may naturally help achieve and maintain a state of ketosis in the body. Ketones or keto ingredients are consumed and used by the body as fuel for the brain, heart, and muscles. Whether you are on a keto diet or not, you can enjoy Rapid Fire to promote a healthy lifestyle.

Presently, 85% of Americans begin their day with drinking some form of coffee. The average American will consume three cups of it over the course of the day. Coffee originated on the plateaus of central Ethiopia. By A.D. 1000, Ethiopian Arabs were collecting the fruits from the trees and preparing a beverage from its beans. Throughout the centuries, coffee has evolved from a rudimentary hot beverage to a cultural phenomenon.

Rapid Fire starts with a coffee seed that’s planted in large beds in shaded nurseries. When the organic fruits, called the coffee cherry are ripened, they are prudently transported to safeguard their condition. The beans are dried, and then sent to the mill; where they are hulled, graded and sorted in an inspection process to ensure only the finest beans. The milled beans, also referred to as green coffee are repeatedly tested for quality and taste, this process is known as cupping. Afterwards, the beans are roasted at the precise temperature which transforms them into aromatic brown beans and promotes naturally occurring antioxidant capacity.  Immediately following that process, the beans are cooled and ground.

This high-performance, fat burning (remove ‘instant’) coffee is an all-in-one powdered drink mix that is to be enjoyed either hot or iced any time of the day. This smooth blend is highlighted with organic ground coffee that is free of many toxins, unlike other coffee beans. Each serving of Rapid Fire Coffee contains 150 mg of caffeine, which is equivalent to approximately an 8-ounce cup of coffee. Caffeine, a mild stimulant is a xanthine alkaloid that occurs naturally in coffee. This delicious instant coffee tastes freshly brewed to help provide a boost in the morning or a pick-me-up to get you through the day.

This amazing drink includes MCT (Medium Chain Triglycerides) oils, which are a unique form of dietary fat that provide a wide range of health benefits. These oils refer to a type of highly refined edible oil from coconuts and other sources, which metabolize within the body into ketone energy.

MCT oils are extracted from natural resources through a process called fractionation, which separates the lipids. To better define MCTs ― medium literally describes the length of each molecule (each molecule is about 6 to 12 carbon atoms long) and Triglycerides, also known as blood lipids, are the fat in your blood stream. Generally, the shorter the “Chain”, the faster the body can turn the fatty acids into ketones and the easier it is for the body to digest and burn instantly. Most of the foods in the American diet are LCT (Long Chain Triglycerides; approximately 13 to 21 carbon atoms). They are harder to digest and our bodies are unable to store them for short term use; therefore, they may promote weight gain. MCTs provide about ten percent fewer calories than LCTs.

Coconut oil is a superfood that is one of the best examples of a high MCT food. This nutrient dense oil has become a mainstay for a variety of health benefits. Almost half of the fat of the coconut is composed of a substance known as lauric acid. This plays a vital role in destroying bacteria and ultimately supporting immune health. Based on recent studies, exercise enthusiasts incorporate it to help enhance endurance and muscle formation, as well as heart health to promote HDL levels.

Coconut oil and MCT oil are both known to enhance cognitive function, support weight management and power the brain and body for steady, all-day energy. MCTs have also been shown to suppress your appetite for hours, so you’ll feel full longer.

Rapid Fire also contains grass-fed butter; which studies have shown have as much as 5x the CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) as conventional butter. This type of butter is derived from pasture-raised cows that roam freely in their natural environment where they ingest nutritious grasses and other plants versus grain-fed cows. Pasture-raised animals experience a higher quality of life than those confined in factory farms that are generally treated with antibiotics or hormones.

Grass-fed butter contains butyrate, a short chain fatty acid that helps the digestive system to function properly. Butyrate also helps control the growth of the cells lining the gut; it promotes the balance of old cells dying and new cells being formed. It’s also the most important source of energy for those cells. Along with promoting powerful anti-inflammatory effects, there is also some evidence that butyrate may suppress appetite.

The Himalayan Mountain ranges stretches across Asia and is associated with Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world. Known as the purest salt available, these pink salt crystals are mined from the great Salt Range of the Himalayas, an area that geologists estimate could be 800 million years old. Although Himalayan salt is considered a sea salt, since this ancient salt has been undisturbed it hasn’t been exposed to toxic pollution, unlike other sea salts.

The many hues of pink, red and white are natural indications of the salt’s 80 + complex minerals and elements. These minerals have been shown to create an electrolyte balance, aid metabolism, promote circulation and absorb nutrients quicker. Because the salt is formed naturally, the minerals have been known to work synergistically and unlike table salt, the iodine doesn’t need to be artificially added. Table salt is not only stripped of all its minerals, but is chemically cleaned and bleached to avoid clumping. Finally, since Himalayan salt crystal structure is larger than refined salt, it contains less sodium per ¼ teaspoon serving
