2 Great Healthy reasons to drink coffee.

2 Great Healthy reasons to drink coffee.

If you are like us, there are 2 main points to your morning cup of coffee.

1-will it accelerate my morning and clear my head?
2-does it taste good?

Fortunately, if you are drinking Catfight, the answer to both is a resounding yes.  But here are 2 health benefits you may not know coffee has.

1-Coffee not only warms your heart, it helps it!  

Research has found that not only is coffee not bad for your heart, it might actually be beneficial.

"If women are consuming a moderate amount of coffee, up to five 8-ounce cups a day, they do not have to be concerned that it will increase their risk of heart disease or stroke," says Rob van Dam, the review's first author and an adjunct professor of nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. "There may even be some benefits, particularly for reducing risk of type 2 diabetes, which is a risk factor for heart disease and stroke."

2-Coffee contains lots of health vitamins and minerals.

Who needs salad when you could have coffee?!?!

Phytochemicals (components of plants that affect their taste, smell, and color) contains some of the same benefits of a salad.These phytochemicals include chlorogenic acid, lignans, trigonelline, and melanoidins. What the hell are Phytochemicals? Well, researchers say they bring a lot of benefits, including helping to feed healthy organisms in your gut and improving the way your body processes sugar and fat.

In addition to that, Coffee is thought to help reduce oxidative stress by neutralizing harmful substances called free radicals, which can damage your body's cells. It also contains some important nutrients, including magnesium, potassium, and vitamin B3 (niacin) which you might find in a salad.

 

But what does this mean if you aren’t a coffee drinker? Well…basically we can’t be friends. KIDDING! If you aren’t a coffee drinker try other options including more nuts, whole grains, fruits and vegetables and being more physically active. Or…just drink some damn Catfight Coffee already!
