Coffee certainly isn’t a secret to anyone roaming any 6 out of the 7 available continents on our earth yet it seems that still mocchiatos may run deeper than you think. Turns out some healthy anti-oxidants have been rumored to be lurking in our everyday cup o’ joe and according to some research they may be able to help stave off some of today’s most frightening medical curveballs.
Most people drink their Dunkin aware that the friendly little jolt they get from coffee is really coming from the healthy dose of caffeine that comes from any cup not marked Decaf. Caffeine goes to work in the nervous system, alerting the brain to cease production on hormones that relax us and increase production on the ones that put pep in our step, like adrenaline. It also a mps up our dopamine levels, so in addition to getting work done, we feel really great about our achievements afterwards.
But recent studies have begun to attempt correalating the effects of drinking coffee frequently to such things as slowing down (although not preventing) the aging process and protecting against Parkinson’s and dementia. Evidence directs us to antioxidants, those nutrients you hear about from everyone that help prevent tissue damage caused by molecules called oxygen-free radicals. Coffee also contains minerals such as magnesium and chromium that assist body in metabolising insulin, which controls blood sugar, which is a major problem for those suffering Type 2 diabetes.
So if you already drink coffee that helps improve your overall health, wouldn’t it be worth it to try a coffee that’s specifically designed to promote healthy body function? Our culture has now begun to readily accept the fact that many of our health issues stem from either inadequate diet or simply a lack of nutritional balance in our diets. And as a result there’s a plethora of products flooding the market that are supposed to keep you up to speed: Drinks with fruit bits, Drinks with Breakfast formulas, Kids drinks with double servings of veggies and fruits.
Coffee is everywhere in our society, and it makes perfect sense that something so readily available should play a role in improving our health. That’s why Youngevity has developed a line of coffees that don’t come in flavors: they come in enhancements. And that’s because they are each designed to address a specific health deficit that’s common among the average person. Why? Because research of every age group shows that the more pleasurable something is, the more likely people will be to repeat their experience with it.
And if its as simple as drinking a healthy cup of joe, how many people do you think are likely to try again? You don’t have to ask; simply check back to the break room in a couple hours and see if there’s anything left in the pot. Odds are, there won’t be.
