Most people understand that coffee is not the most healthy drink - but we keep on drinking it anyway! Now that you have found Organo Gold - a premium coffee that is actually good for you - take a look at some of these facts about regular coffee:
Regular coffee contains approximately 150-200mg of caffeine per cup. The adverse effects of caffeine are well documented:
- Stimulates glands to produce elevated levels of Cortisol, which contributes to arthritis, obesity, diabetes, depression, etc.
- Constricts blood vessels, reducing oxygen levels in the blood by up to 30%.
- Increases insulin production creating a blood sugar roller coaster.
- Stimulates the appetite which may challenge weight loss programs.
- Causes dehydration. You lose one cup of water for every cup of regular coffee. Water is essential for cell to cell communication, and the brain is comprised of 80% water when fully dehydrated. Dehydration can be linked to headaches, muscle and joint pain, constipation, heartburn, rashes and more.
Regular coffee is high in acid, creating a pH imbalance in the body. Excess acid creates an environment for disease to take up residence; and you have to drink 16-18 glasses of water to neutralize the acid in one cup of regular coffee.
Some references to negative aspects of drinking coffee can be found in:
