Healthy Coffee Anyone?

Healthy Coffee Anyone?
By Dr. Diane Spindler

We have all heard that coffee is bad for our health. What if I told you that coffee can be good for you? What If I told you about a Healthier coffee than commercially processed coffees, yet gives you all the rich flavor and even more energy than fully-caffeinated coffee? What if I told you that this coffee might actually improve your sleep, balance your pH, increase oxygen to your brain, help balance your weight, and boost your overall health so efficiently that you can feel the benefits almost immediately?

What if I told you that this is REAL coffee (not a coffee substitute) grown and processed organically without the use of chemicals, pesticides, hormones or artificial fertilizers? What if I told you that this coffee actually helps to remove toxins from your body, and with every cup you drink, you can feel better and realize increasing health benefits? And, what if this particular coffee tastes good, really good?

For the first time in America, there is a healthy coffee! I’m very pleased to tell you that there is a coffee (and a great tea and cocoa beverage) that the entire family can safely drink that is absolutely loaded with health-giving properties. These beverages are even good for children.

In fact, children who drink the zero caffeine chocolate beverage may be sleeping more soundly and focusing better in school. And, this gourmet product, grown and produced without chemicals and pesticides, is available to you for at, or below, market value, averaging $20.00 for 30 servings wholesale, and about $32 retail.

What makes this coffee healthy?

This particular brand of coffee, tea and delicious hot cocoa contains an incredible taste-free mushroom substance that, once added to the beverages, provides incredible health properties. This coffee is very low in acid and has a dramatically diminished caffeine effect. The mushroom in the coffee has been used medicinally in Asia for over 2,000 years. And, guess what? This mushroom substance, conveniently pre-mixed in great tasting coffee, has just become available in the United States. The name of the mushroom is Ganoderma lucidum.

What is Ganoderma?

Ganoderma lucidum is the scientific name

Gano Cafe

for a species of red mushroom that has been cultivated on plantations and grown wild in Asia for thousands of years. Ganoderma contains more than 200 active elements that are known to improve health. Here are a few that modern science is currently focusing on:

Polysaccharides

·Eliminates accumulated toxins

Organic Germanium

·Reduces cholesterol and body fat
·Helps to unclog arteries plugged with fatty deposits, and supports liver function
·Balances the metabolic rate and boosts energy

Why 8 -8oz glasses of water per Day

Dr. Chet says:

How Is 8 x 8 Justified?

Let’s get back to the original question of the eight 8-ounce glasses of water per day. Is it justified? Let's look at a basic physiology textbook, such as Guyton’s Textbook of Medical Physiology (1). You find in a section in the chapter on fluid balance that they talk about how much water we lose every day under normal conditions:
  • Skin (not from sweat)--12 ounces
  • Lungs--12 ounces
  • Sweat--4 ounces (without exercise)
  • Feces--4 ounces
  • Urine--48 ounces
  • Total: 80 ounces per day. And remember, that’s without sweating due to exercise or high heat and humidity.
The recommended 8 x 8 would provide 64 ounces, and that means we would be 16 ounces short based on typical fluid loss, even before your daily exercise routine. That’s why eight 8-ounce glasses of fluid per day is still a good idea. Notice I said fluid. Tea, coffee, sports and energy drinks, soft drinks, juice--all fluids count toward that total.

There’s one more thing that you’ll probably read somewhere and that’s the water in fruits and vegetables counts toward that total. I agree, but most of us eat only three or four servings of fruits and vegetables per day, if that. Let’s say you start your day with an orange; that’s four ounces of fluid. Later, with your dinner, you have a medium baked potato along with a cup of broccoli; that would add four ounces and three ounces respectively. Then let’s say you top it off with a banana--another three ounces. From the foods you ate, you got 14 ounces of water--you still need another 66 ounces. And that’s why eight 8-ounce glasses of fluid per day is still a good idea. Now you know why. Bottoms up!

Eat for Younger - Looking Skin

Great News - An orange a day may keep fine lines and flaky skin at bay, found a recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Researches discovered that women over 40 and older who had greater amounts of C were 11% less likely to develop wrinkles. "Vitamin C boosts collagen production, which keeps skin firm," says lead researcher Maeve Cosgrove, PhD. a nutritional epidemiologist. To ward off wrinkles, consume the RDA of 75 mg - the amount found in a grapefruit.Information from Prevention Magazine pg 96 march 2008.
