Coffee can reduce your risk of early death

Yes, one minute you die from it the next is it healthy. We all know how this goes, it all depend on who do the study, and why, it seem.

However, a new study made by European Society of Cardiology and involving close to 20,000 individuals, and published late last year, people who consumed at least four cups of coffee daily had a 64% lower risk of early death compared to those never or rarely consumed coffee.

Coffee has also been shown to reduce the risk of many diseases, including type 2 diabetes, liver disease, colorectal cancer, Alzheimer's and skin cancer, too.

Coffee is loaded with antioxidants, many are naturally occurring antioxidants found in the coffee bean, while others are created during the roasting process. It's these compounds that science links with positive effects in reducing the risk of several diseases.

So, there we go. Think it's time for a good cup of Java!

An old truth is this: Beginning home wine makers just cannot wait to taste what they have made. In addition, 5 gallons is only 25 bottles. So you'll get the batch finished, and then you will try a bottle or 2 or 3. Then you'll wait a week and try a few more bottles. Sooner than later, pretty much sooner I noticed, it will all be gone before it has a chance to age and get really good. With 5 gallons to begin with - you just might be tempted to let a few of the...

Drinking red wine gets better and better...

Many are the studies showing different health benefits of red wine. Alex Therrien over at BBC use a nice headline today: " Red wine compound 'could help tooth decay and gum disease fight '". How lovely and wonderful isn't this nectar of gods, it cures everything from diabetes to bad teeth depending on what researchers you believe. Well, this time, according to a study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry , scientists looked into whether wine polyphenols might also be good for oral health. And sure enough it is. And jumping over all the cellular and microbiota talk, you can head over to the original article if you want to glance at those, they the findings said could ultimately lead to new dental treatments. I admit I rather have a glass of red wine than a visit at the dentist. These polyphenols, however, are also found in coffee, green- black- and red tea, lemon juice, blueberries... Well, in a lot of different stuff. Don't...
