Oh yes, I drink many cups of coffee a day – keeps my day started as usual. However, when it comes to health relations – I have mixed feelings. Half the people I met condemned coffee saying that it has adverse effects on health, while another half talks about the benefits of drinking a cup of Joe a day.
Brewed coffee contains many antioxidants and consumption of antioxidant-rich brewed coffee may slow down diseases caused by oxidative damages. Antioxidants are said to be an inhibitor of certain types of diseases. However, coffee beans are not all a like. Not all coffee beans are of the same quality or even the same make up. Sort of like comparing tennis shoes to sandals. Both go on your feet, but they are not comprised of the same components. You can actually break coffee down into several different water-soluble components. The dietary fiber derived from roasted coffee silver skin.
This is one module of the coffee bean that has high antioxidant content. This is how the scientists find out about the antioxidant benefits of coffee in their studies. What they do in fact is the break down the coffee beans into different components. They filter out the components that the coffee antioxidant is originate in, and then they test lab rats in a variety of experiments to determine how well they survive with or without the various additives in their diet. When they discover something really swell, like a coffee antioxidant, our culture of coffee drinking addicts suddenly becomes a feverish mob.
