The Joy of Java
You may’ve read that your jolt of Joe has disease-fighting antioxidants, so you’ve been gleefully guzzling it with a side of dark chocolate. But here’s more, and more, and more good news about coffee: 1) It reduces your risk of type 2 diabetes by 30%. 2) Consistent coffee drinkers are as much as 80% less likely to develop Parkinson’s. 3) It reduces the risk of alcohol-related cirrhosis. 4) Research has found it to be protective against skin, breast, liver, colon, and rectal cancers! 5) Prevents cavities? New research says yes. 6) Helps treat headaches, which is why Excedrin and Anacin have caffeine. Grind your own organic beans, keep milk, sugar, and sweeteners to an absolute minimum, and drink moderately and early in the day.
