My Vanilla Macadamia Nut Kona Hawaiian coffee had been the drink of choice for years. Sadly my Naturopathic Practitioner shared with me that it’s full of toxic ingredients.
While searching through Amazon one day Vita Cup popped up. My friend had just mentioned she started drinking it as well because of the MCT oil. So I thought I’d give it a shot. I was excited to see the other ingredients as well. The vitamins I take each day. Like all the B’s and Tumeric.
I’ll warn you though, it is slightly bitter.
Ingredients:
- MCT Oil – Medium-chain triglycerides
- Vitamin D3
- Vitamins B1, B5, B6, B9 and Antioxidants
- Arabica beans sourced from Brazil and Mexico
Genius triple threat with a blend of MCT oil and the following essential vitamins. Great for a little boost in brain power and focus.
Benefits of MCT Oil:
- MCT oil makes you feel full to aide in weight loss
- According to Healthline it’s said to reduce your body weight and waist circumference
- Can be used as an instant energy source
- MCT can be converted into ketones(produced by breaking down fat when carb intake is low) It can help the body stay in the fat burning state known as ketosis – great if you’re on a ketogenic diet
- Optimal growth in good bacteria
- May reduce lactate build up in athletes (when lactic acid builds up in your bloodstream faster than your body can burn it)
Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) are triglycerides with two or three fatty acids having an aliphatic tail of 6–12 carbon atoms, i.e., medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs). Rich food sources for commercial extraction of MCTs include palm kernel oil and coconut oil.

Benefits of Tumeric:
I’ve been a big Tumeric pusher for years. There’s a long list of proven medicinal properties.
- Anti-inflammatory helps your body fight foreign invaders. It matches the effectiveness of some anti-inflammatory drugs without all of the nasty side effects.
- Powerful antioxidant
- Curcumin boosts level of brain hormones
- Possibly will lower your risk of heart disease
- May reduce the growth of many types of cancer
One of the things that I like about this coffee is the fact that I’m satisfied after just one cup. I don’t feel like a need a refill to keep going. It’s on the spendy side so that’s a good thing.
