7 reason's why coffee is good for you!

1. (Coffee Can Make You Smarter)
• Caffeine potently blocks an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, leading to a net stimulant effect. Controlled trials show that caffeine improves both mood and brain function.

2. (Coffee Can Help You Burn Fat and Improves Physical Performance)
•Caffeine raises the metabolic rate and helps to mobilize fatty acids from the fat tissues. It can also enhance physical performance.

3. (Coffee May Drastically Lower Your Risk of Type II Diabetes)
• Drinking coffee is associated with a drastically reduced risk of type II diabetes. People who drink several cups per day are the least likely to become diabetic.

4. (Coffee May Lower Your Risk of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s)
• Coffee is associated with a much lower risk of dementia and the neurodegenerative disorders Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

5. (Coffee May be Extremely Good For Your Liver)
• Coffee appears to be protective against certain liver disorders, lowering the risk of liver cancer by 40% and cirrhosis by as much as 80%.

6.(Coffee May Decrease Your Risk of Dying)
• Coffee consumption has been associated with a lower risk of death in prospective epidemiological studies, especially in type II diabetics.

7. (Coffee is Loaded With Nutrients and Antioxidants)
• Coffee contains a decent amount of several vitamins and minerals. It is also the biggest source of antioxidants in the modern diet. :

6% of the RDA for Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5).
11% of the RDA for Riboflavin (Vitamin B2).
2% of the RDA for Niacin (B3) and Thiamine (B1).
3% of the RDA for Potassium and Manganese

:

• Contain the most omega-3 fatty acids, which may help reduce cholesterol, of all nuts.

• Omega-3s have been shown to improve mood and fight cancer; they may protect against sun damage, too (but don't skip the SPF!).

Quick Tip:

Eat a few for dessert: The antioxidant melatonin, found in walnuts, helps to regulate sleep.

• Rich in healthy, satisfying fats proven in one study to lower cholesterol by about 22 percent.

• One has more than half the fiber and 40 percent of the folate you need daily, which may reduce your risk of heart disease.

Quick Tip:

Adding it to your salad can increase the absorption of key nutrients like beta-carotene by three to five times compared with salads without this superfood.

• A great source of omega-3 fatty acids, which have been linked to a reduced risk of depression, heart disease, and cancer.

• A 3-ounce serving contains almost 50 percent of your daily dose of niacin, which may protect against Alzheimer's disease and memory loss.

• One red potato contains 66 micrograms of cell-building folate — about the same amount found in one cup of spinach or broccoli.

• One sweet potato has almost eight times the amount of cancer-fighting and immune-boosting vitamin A you need daily.

Quick Tip:

Let your potato cool before eating. Research shows that doing so can help you burn close to 25 percent more fat after a meal, thanks to a fat-resistant starch.

One medium stalk of broccoli contains more than 100 percent of your daily vitamin K requirement and almost 200 percent of your recommended daily dose of vitamin C — two essential bone-building nutrients.

• The same serving also helps stave off numerous cancers.

Quick Tip:

Zap it! Preserve up to 90 percent of broccoli's vitamin C by microwaving. (Steaming or boiling holds on to just 66 percent of the nutrient.

• Just one-fourth of an ounce daily can reduce blood pressure in otherwise healthy individuals.

• Cocoa powder is rich in flavonoids, antioxidants shown to reduce "bad" LDL cholesterol and increase "good" HDL levels.

Quick Tip:

A dark chocolate bar contains about 53.5 milligrams of flavonoids; a milk chocolate bar has fewer than 14. Gourmet District

• Spinach contains lutein and zeaxanthin, two immune-boosting antioxidants important for eye health.

• Recent research found that among cancer-fighting fruits and veggies, spinach is one of the most effective.

Quick Tip:

Spinach is a healthy — and flavorless — addition to any smoothie. You won't taste it, we promise! Try blending 1 cup spinach, 1 cup grated carrots, 1 banana, 1 cup apple juice, and ice.

• Just one lemon has more than 100 percent of your daily intake of vitamin C, which may help increase "good" HDL cholesterol levels and strengthen bones.

• Citrus flavonoids found in lemons may help inhibit the growth of cancer cells and act as an anti-inflammatory.

Quick Tip:

Add a slice of lemon to your green tea. One study found that citrus increases your body's ability to absorb the antioxidants in the tea by about 80 percent. @ Gourmet District
