For all you Coffee Lovers!
When people ask me is it wise to drink coffee and what type I always tell them it is better to drink one good quality (ideally organic) coffee than decaffeinated. You never know how the manufacturers have decaffeinated it. Sometimes they use harsh chemicals to extract the caffeine this is counterproductive to good health. Coffee contains caffeine and other constituents (chemical’s), such as chlorgenic acid, and diterpenes. Recently a show on TV with Dr Oz illustrated how paper filters were better to use than gold foil filters because the latter allows leakage of these chemical's through, whilst the paper filters remove the chemical’s that contribute to elevating your cholesterol around 8%.
On the other hand caffeinated coffee turns on a protein which stimulates insulin to be more active and sensitive. People develop Diabetes when their insulin does not work well. So a positive attribute here!
Some studies have even suggested that drinking coffee may prevent diseases such as type II diabetes mellitus, Parkinson’s disease, and certain types of liver cancer.

Of course not recommending you consume several cups of strong coffee a day no matter the type since your central nervous system would be in over drive! I recommend 1 cup/mug of good quality organic filtered coffee a day, preferably prior noon and make sure you use organic unbleached filtered paper. Many paper filters contain so many chemicals/bleach that leach out whilst you make the coffee.
Enjoy your guilt free cuppa! No cane sugar please ♥
