Cup of Joe to Relieve Your Morning Stress (and keep those eyelids from
shutting)?
Who knew? Coffee, it's actually good for you! Caffeine, according to
researchers, is high in antioxidants and vitamins that help repair cell
damage. Europeans have their red wine; Asians have green tea, and
Americans? We have our coffee, of course!
But, before you overdo it, the American Chemical Society reminds us
that coffee is not necessarily the best source for antioxidants. You
are better off consuming fruits and vegetables, than drinking coffee,
to get your source of antioxidants. Oh yea, well why are there Starbuck
coffee chains on every street corner in the good old U S of A? Make
mine a triple latte with lots of whipped cream and a cherry, I mean a
zucchini, on top. www.alertnet.org
