I am sure that if you are a coffee enthusiast, you have heard this, but if not let me state it here. "Coffee is good for you!"
Recent research has shown that coffee is the number one source of antioxidants in the American diet. Antioxidants, are nutrients that are responsible from protecting your body's cells from being destroyed by toxins. This destruction has been linked to an increased risk of certain medical conditions, such as cancer, heart disease and others.
Antioxidants are found in the good stuff that our mothers made us eat when we were little, namely fruits & veggies. Amazingly, many of us didn't listen and took up coffee instead because more Americans get their daily dose of antioxidants from coffee than from broccoli!
The top 10 list for the the source of antioxidants in the Americandiet were listed as follows:
1. Coffee 2. Black Tea 3. Bananas 4. Dried Beans 5. Corn 6. Red Wine 7. Beer 8. Apples 9.
Tomatoes 10.Potatoes
Research also showed that there was esentially no difference between the amount of antioxidants in regular versus decaf coffees.
Now this doesn't mean that you should run out and consume mass amounts of coffee. Like everything in life, moderation is the key!
And by the way, you should still eat your fruits and veggies, just finish them off with a great cup of coffee!
