Coffee: The Health Drink<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\n

Coffee is not usually thought of as health food, but a number of recent studies suggest that it can be a highly beneficial drink. Researchers have found strong evidence that coffee reduces the risk of several serious ailments, including diabetes, heart disease and cirrhosis of the liver.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I should be the healthiest guy on the planet.<\/p>\n

\n

The findings<\/a>, which appeared in May in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, suggest that antioxidants in coffee may dampen inflammation,
\nreducing the risk of disorders related to it, like cardiovascular disease. Several compounds in coffee may contribute to its antioxidant capacity, including phenols, volatile aroma compounds and oxazoles that are efficiently absorbed.<\/p>\n

In another analysis<\/a>, published in July in the same journal, researchers found that a typical serving of coffee contains more antioxidants than typical servings of grape juice, blueberries, raspberries
\nand oranges. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe were surprised to learn that coffee quantitatively is the major contributor of antioxidants in the diet both in Norway and in the U.S.A.,\u201d said Rune Blomhoff, the senior author of both studies and a professor of nutrition at the University of Oslo.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Woot! Pour me another cup of antioxidants, Honey! I’m getting excited! And jittery!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

(Amusingly enough, a search of “Java Jive<\/a>” here tells me I really ought to have a “Java Jive” sub-category.) <\/p>\n
