For many the day starts with a sip of hot coffee.  Earlier it considered as Tea for rich people.  but once the corporate culture and Airports boomed up we have  been spoiled by  fancy coffee machines, we can’t help it.

The Aroma, The Flavor. The variety ( cappuccino, Latte, espresso, Filter coffee, Irish Coffee, cold coffee, and many more. Starbucks’ medium and light roasts are pretty good and Aroma is what attracts us to to this amazing drink.

Actually speaking coffee beans are grown on plants and its natural, any thing which is natural and edible is healthy, however the amount of caffeine you take in is what makes it unhealthy along with the added sugar and milk cream which make tends to move coffee towards the side of unhealthiness

Here are 9 caffeine benefits (proven by scientists!)

Coffee is good if taken in moderate amount with less sugar.  it keeps your brain active and gives you good feeling to start your day and to keep laziness at bay.

The main reason for waking up and running to Tim Hortons, or grinding beans or cafe coffee day or may be a local filter coffee shop in south India  that coffee makes them feel focused, productive, and alert. Yes: coffee can actually be enjoyed.

Remember your first cup? Feel that rush, the clarity, and the energy? Nothing compares.

This stimulant puts us in the zone; it helps us focus and gives us  alertness, which is precisely why so many North Americans and south Indians enjoy at least one cup of coffee each and every day.

But having too much coffee may end up feeling nervous, jittery and  headaches. These are just some of the side effects of high caffeine intake or caffeine sensitivity. 

So if you love coffee and also you are caffeine sensitive how do you balance.  in your current relationship with coffee, you want something more.

Also Who doesn’t want to squeeze jut a little more productivity out of their day?

There is a component called  l-theanine.

theanine can help improve cognitive function. However, it’s most significant benefit is it’s ability to reduce mental fatigue and stress in humans.

Sugar less coffee is also considered healthy. try for few days and you will actually enjoy it. In fact sugar dissolves the actual taste and benefits of coffee.

Also avoid is on empty stomach as its acidic and its not advisable to have tea or coffee first thing in morning. the best time is around 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM.

The conclusion is coffee is healthy in moderate amounts, without sugar and milk.  however if you like it with milk and sugar no worries just keep it one cup a day. more caffeine can be harmful. if you are used to more than 3 to 4 cups a day then balance it with Theanine power.
