Coffee is Good For You!

Far from being a bad habit – albeit an expensive habit at times – drinking up to 3 cups of coffee each day will increase your attention span and your physical capabilities while under its (several hour) influence. Coffee may even slash your risk for death from heart disease by as much as 25 percent, a study in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed recently.  The combination of antioxidants and certain acids in coffee may work together to soothe inflammation in your blood vessels leading to this conclusion.  In addition, your risk for serious accidents decreases as well due to your heightened alertness and your ability to learn and remember is enhanced too.  What’s not to like here?
