About two years ago I was invited to be part of a survey on coffee, and I was astounded this particular company, and I can't remember their name now, but they actually had hundreds of references and resources showing the high antioxidant level of coffee. Now unlike a lot of my associates, I don't believe that coffee will harm you if it's organic coffee. The problem is that with the regular coffee that we buy in the supermarkets, most of it has gone from between being planted and the time it's finished roasting, it's gone through at least 18 chemicals being added to it. So one or two cups of coffee a day, as long as it's organic, I don't believe can hurt anyone. I think it has a lot of antioxidants that are very beneficial, and as - you know, I will make one preface here though, if you're a person who has high blood pressure you might want to go with decaffeinated, but make sure you do not get regular decaffeinated coffee that is decaffeinated with methylene chloride which is a known carcinogenic agent. Make sure it's water processed, or Swiss Water Processed.
