The Good News About Coffee

I love coffee! I really do. If you have read my articles you know that I have talked about how to choose your coffee wisely as many coffee drinks have more calories than a Big Mac. I have also discussed the potential health benefits are of a simple cup of joe. Review the research below.

Harvard researchers found that a man who drinks six cups of coffee daily can cut his risk of diabetes by 54% while women can reduce their risk by 30%. Moreover, coffee has been found to decrease the risk of colon cancer, Parkinson’s Disease, and treat headaches. Vanderbilt University scientist, Tomas DePaulis, Ph.D, says “Overall, the research shows that coffee is far more healthful than it is harmful”. De Paulis argues that few see harmful effects of coffee while many around the world see huge benefits. In fact, he points out that coffee can counteract damage by lessening the risk of heart disease in those who drink and smoke. If that isn’t enough, coffee has been linked to controlling asthma, preventing cavities and boost mood. In Brazil a study was conducted that showed children who drank small amounts of coffee had less depression than those who did not drink coffee. Further, there have not been any studies that indicate that coffee is harmful to children.

Recently, I discovered a new way to enjoy a robust cup of coffee on the go. If you are a camper, a traveler or simply want to brew your own cup anywhere then meet Dr. Drip Coffee. Dr. Drip Coffee is organically grown Arabica coffee, not instant, but real coffee you can brew directly in your mug. You simply place the Dr. Drip disposable filter, already filled with premeasured organic coffee, atop your mug and add hot water slowly. Your coffee will brew quickly into a rich blend every time. It’s so much fun and so convenient. Don’t worry about the filter it is compostable and recyclable. You can choose the blend that fits you best and keep moving! Enjoy a cup of organic fresh brewed coffee anywhere, anytime.
