DYK: So you love COFFEE...


Are you one of those people who cannot survive a day without coffee? Or simply enjoy a cup or two on a weekend? Did you know you can make your coffee a bit healthier by adding three simple ingredients?!? Coffee is a diuretic therefore it has a depleting effects on your adrenal and nervous system. To counter act the depleting effects simply add a pinch of ground ginger and cardamom. Both spices can be found in the spice section of your grocery store. Coffee's acidity is hurtful to your gut. A pinch of salt can minimize the ill effect.

Simply add the three ingredients to your fresh cup of coffee or add it to the ground beans right before brewing! Give it a try and see for yourself...the best thing, you will not be able to tell the difference in the taste but your body will thank you. Wishing you a steamy cup of great coffee with a loved one!!
