Coffee, justifiably well known for its ability to inspire us out of bed each morning, is a commonly prescribed fix for a quick boost of energy, especially in the keto diet community. Naturally zero-carb, the caffeine boost in coffee is often just the thing to counterbalance a lull in energy.
An increased awareness of low-sugar, low-carb diets has spawned a host of new products catering to those that appreciate a low glycemic index and high-quality fats. It’s this market that inspired the attention of celebrity trainer and MMA fighter, Adam Von Rothfelder. The development of Strong Coffee Company has hinged on its Caffe Latte–a nutritious, low sugar coffee drink for the fitness nutrition-minded.
From the Cage to Cable TV
After two successful MMA bouts, Adam Von Rothfelder found himself injured and unable to continue fighting professionally. Using his skills and experience, he developed a successful career training other fighters, athletes, and celebrities – including NFL star Ray Lewis and NBA star Joakim Noah. His successful methods of strength training and nutritional guidance caught the attention of producers and Von Rothfelder accepted an offer to be a Trainer on the NBC show “STRONG.”
On his website and in the mission of Strong Coffee Company, Adam expresses his inspiration to help others better themselves through movement–which was a primary motivation in accepting the role as Trainer on the show.
Strong Coffee Company Caffe Latte
Not your average coffee beverage, the Caffe Latte by Strong Coffee Company is tailored to be a nutritious pick-me-up for morning or any time. Sporting 120mg of time-released caffeine, 150mg L-theanine, and 5mg of MCT, the Caffe Latte can help improve mental focus and boost metabolic function. Additionally, muscle function and healthy skin, hair, and nails are also likely to see improvement due to the drink’s added collagen, hyaluronic acid, and freeze-dried coconut water powder.
Packaged conveniently in single and multi-serve pouches, the ready-to-stir drink is available on their website and, in the near future, fitness-focused store shelves.
A New Keto-Friendly Drink?
While a great low-sugar alternative to many coffee drinks, it could be argued that Strong Coffee Company’s Caffee Latte is not entirely keto. With 3g of sugar per serving, likely due to ingredients like freeze-dried coconut powder and agave inulin, the drink would not follow conventional keto diet rules. However, it’s important to consider that, if it fits your macros, it could technically still work on a low-carb diet.
