...cola, not coffee, raises blood pressure in woman? The association between hypertension and caffeine had been attributed to coffee, but a new study shows that caffeinated colas increase woman's risk of hypertension. Researchers speculate that some other compound in soda is responsible for increased risk.

Did you know that...

...coffee has more antioxidants than any other food or beverage in the American diet? The average adult receives more than four times the amount of antioxidants from coffee -- regular or decaf -- daily than from black tea (the second-most consumed source), followed by chocolate, bananas, beans and corn.

Koffee Kantate

Ah! How sweet the coffee's taste is, Sweeter than a thousand kisses, Milder than sweet muscatel. Coffee, coffee, I must have it, And if someone wants to treat me, Ah, my cup with coffee fill!

~ Johann Sebastian Bach (Koffee Kantate)

Energy booster, replace drip with espresso coffee

The rich taste of coffee and the mental alertness it imparts makes coffee drinking very popular in America. But regular drip coffee creates an energy roller coaster that increases overall fatigue. I have found that people can reduce their stress hormones by switching to espresso-based coffee beverages. It contains one-third the amount of caffeine (about 30 mg), so you get an energy boost without feeling irritable or experiencing a slump later on. Bonus: Espresso is loaded with disease-fighting antioxidants.
