Coffee’s global appeal continues to grow.  The world consumes 2.5 billion cups of coffee per day, and it’s a part of the daily routine of millions.  But is coffee good for you?

The answer seems to be a resounding ‘Yes’.  We at GetHealthy360 have published several posts on the benefits of coffee, and recently combined these into a short video.

Here is the brief summary.  Coffee consumption is linked with:

• lower risk of heart failure
• lower risk of stroke
• lower risk of developing Alzheimer’s
• lower risk of developing Parkinson’s
• lower risk of developing kidney disease
• lower risk of developing Type II Diabetes
• lower risk of death

For maximum benefit, try light roast and minimize exposure to air.  And go easy on the added sugar!
