There are a lot of health benefits in a cup of coffee.

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

Because coffee is a healthy beverage why don’t more of us drink it?

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

An interesting article in this regard in The New York Times posed a question. “I Don’t Drink Coffee. Should I Start?”

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

Counting yourself out from the 64 percent of Americans who drink at least one cup a day can invite bewildered responses from dedicated coffee drinkers.

To them, the benefits are clear, the drawbacks minimal.

Being in the minority, it’s easy to wonder:

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

Have I been making a mistake? Should I and other coffee abstainers start now?

“There aren’t any guidelines to help guide you on this,” said Dr. Donald Hensrud, director of the Mayo Clinic Healthy Living Program.

“This is kind of an individual decision.”

The point the doctors make in this article is that we know that coffee is not bad for you and has lots of positive health effects including living longer.

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

But, should we all drink coffee? In other words should we treat coffee as a medicine like those that people take to treat high blood pressure or too much cholesterol?

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

As one of the physicians noted this raises the bar for positive and negative effects of coffee.

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

For example, there are people who are prone to acid reflux and ulcers and for those folks too much coffee causes problems.

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

And there are people who metabolize coffee very slowly and therefore get very nervous from just a small amount.

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

Those folks would need to consider how much discomfort they would be willing to undergo in order to experience the benefits of drinking coffee. And, what are those benefits again?

Drinking Coffee

For those who are concerned about the debilitating neurologic disease, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, help is not only on the way but help has always been there in the form a few cups of coffee each day.

Researchers have discovered a reduced incidence of Parkinson’s disease and hope for those prone to Alzheimer’s in drinking coffee.

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

Research has shown than drinking a cup of coffee a day is related to a lower incidence of Alzheimer’s than with non-coffee drinkers.

http://buyorganiccoffee.org/1605/should-we-all-drink-coffee/

More recent work shows that the reduction in the incidence of Alzheimer’s goes up with the number of cups of coffee that a person drinks each day.
