A few weeks ago I gave ten good reasons to drink your daily cup of black heavenliness. Just in case they didn't convince you, here are a few more. 1. It helps to burn fat - caffeine is one of the few natural substances of which it has been proven it helps to burn fat. It is scientifically proven that it can increase the metabolism, though more studies are needed to see if consuming coffee over a long period reduces this effect. 2. It contains essential nutrients - coffee isn't just black water, it contains vitamins B2 and B5, potassium and magnesium. 3. It reduces the risk of liver and colon cancer. 4. Less risk of suffering from a stroke - even though it has been proved coffee can increase blood pressure, studies do not support the myth that consuming coffee would lead to more heart and vascular diseases. On the contrary, some research shows that people who drink coffee have a reduced risk of suffering from a stroke. 5. Long life - it will come as no surprise that, given that coffee reduces the risk of a number of diseases, it might help to live longer.

AuthorI wouldn't be surprised to find out I was born with a passion for coffee. For the life of me, I can't remember not loving coffee. And by that, I don't just mean drinking it, but everything involved from its cultivation over the processing to the final product that is my loyal companion throughout the day. Archives
