Do I have any other coffee lovers in here?! I love the taste… hot, iced, bulletproof, black, it doesn’t matter! I want it!

I love coffee, not just the caffeine, but the taste and the comfort!

Coffee often gets a bad rap, due to the caffeine intake, but did you know it actually has quite a few health benefits?

Many studies show that coffee drinkers have lower rates of:

• Type two diabetes
• Parkinson’s disease
• Cirrhosis
• Gout
• Uterine and liver cancer
• Cardiovascular disease

And can also:

• Improve energy levels
• Improve exercise performance
• Help you burn more fat
• Improve your attention

Coffee can also majorly add to your body burden! How?

When choosing a coffee, I always like to make sure of a few things.

So when most people are concerned about the caffeine levels, I’m sitting over here worried about the mold and pesticide levels. Yes, caffeine can definitely be over-consumed and it is dehydrating, so we need to be mindful of our water intake! Also, it’s no doubt that coffee can do a number on your adrenal glands! Since coffee is a stimulant, too much can deplete your natural energy reserves.

So, If you are a coffee drinker as I am, don’t beat yourself up about it! Enjoy your cup, but hydrate after! And try not to over-do it! But also make SURE you are choosing a clean brand to drink!

The questions above are all necessary to know the answer to to make sure what you are consuming every single day isn’t loaded with the nasty stuff! Clean coffee not only tastes better, but it also minimized the side effects like extra brain fog, heart burn, more fatigue, and acidity problems.

Here is my review on the clean brands I do recommend!

BY A LANDSLIDE, my favorite cup of coffee! Checks off every question above which makes me confident in my cup of Joe. Clean energy from it and nice and dark tasting. There are multiple options for roasts available too!

Has added mushrooms for adaptogenic properties- love the clean burn but it’s not as dark tasting as others.

This was next on my list to try because it’s definitely clean. But once I tasted LifeBoost, I didn’t want to sip anything else.

I know I sound like a coffee addict, but just talking about this makes me want to go brew a pot to sip on! Plus, it’s snowing outside so it would just add to the coziness! I won’t, because its 4pm, but I am excited to get it ready for tomorrow morning! You know it’s a GREAT coffee when you are excited to go to bed just to be able to wake up and have another mug full!

But I promise, I’m not an addict…

That being said, it is important to know how your body metabolizes coffee. Everyone is different and there are different test you can do to find out, but you can also probably tell just by listening to your body.

• ???? ??????????? ?????- Coffee makes you anxious and jittery, a morning cup alone can make it hard to fall asleep at night
• ???? ??????????? ?????- Coffee makes you happy and productive, you can drink a cup and go to bed shortly after
• ????? ??????????? ????? – You can handle a cup or two, but may have trouble sleeping or not feel well when you drink too much or too late in the day

If you do want to take the test, the 23andMe genetic analysis can help by looking at the CYP1A2 gene. I choose to just listen to my body, though!

I am a fast metabolizer which is why I can sleep easily whenever I’ve had my last cup!! That being said, I’m extremely mindful about choosing clean coffee to drink. I want to minimize the negative effects of coffee and the negative components that are often in coffee.
