Drinking Coffee: How This Can Benefit You

By Debrah Elliot


If you can't start every morning without drinking a cup of coffee, it should be because of the delicious taste you love but you should also know that you are on your way to better health too. The health benefits brought about by drinking this brew worth noting are as follows.

Almost no calories can be found in your coffee and it contains but a tiny amount of fat. Drinking black coffee should be the best way to not damage your diet. Studies even attest to the fact that coffee contains essential nutrients including magnesium, potassium, riboflavin and niacin.

In addition, coffee is an excellent source of antioxidants. These are molecules that hinder oxidation in our cells. While we need oxygen to breathe, oxygen also can damage our cells and antioxidants prevent this damage. Coffee contains large amounts of super-concentrated antioxidants, which can prevent a host of serious medical problems.

Research has shown that antioxidants are helpful in warding off many serious diseases, such as Type 2 Diabetes, some types of cancer and Parkinson's disease. There is even some evidence to suggest that drinking coffee can reduce your chances of developing cirrhosis of the liver. In fact, when it comes to cirrhosis and Parkinson's disease, you might lower your risk of developing these issues by as much as 80%. Some scientists believe that drinking coffee regularly also can prevent or lower the risk of other types of dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease.

Caffeine is believed to be a mood booster and so studies reveal that to drink coffee is to lower one's risk at depression. Of course note that to drink coffee too much can also be dangerous because extremely high amounts of caffeine proves toxic which then reminds us that everything should be taken in moderation in order to enjoy life. Typically drinking two cups of coffee daily should be enough to make you enjoy caffeine's stimulating effects as well as important health benefits.

A fantastic cup of coffee can best be enjoyed at Island Monarch Coffee if you happen to live in Los Angeles. Find this Culver City coffee shop around the corner from where L.A. City College is and you can have a truly fresh cup of coffee. They use gourmet coffee beans which are still green upon arriving in Los Angeles and only roasted and used in just a few days which are then ground upon a customer's order of a cup of coffee. Their offer comes wide as they have customizable espresso drinks along with smoothies and treats like bagels, cookies which are freshly baked and other snacks too.
