Coffee drinking does not appear to increase a person’s risk of early death. In fact, research shows,it cuts a person’s chances of heart disease. Researchers that coffee drinkers, particularly the women, experienced a small decline in death rates from heart disease. Drinking decaffeinated coffee was linked with a small turn down of reduction in overall mortality risk. Some studies have pointed out that coffee is a great source of antioxidants, substances that may protect against radicals that can damage cells. Anyhow, if you are a coffee lover, try Nespresso. Nespresso includes coffee capsules and technologically advanced espresso and cappuccino machines. The Nespresso coffee capsules assure that every portion of the top quality coffee remains completely fresh. It creates the richest taste and aroma.

Let’s drink green tea

I drink green tea everyday. Green tea is often called as “miracle tea”. Green tea has many health benefits. It reduces the growth of cancer cells, lowers the cholesterol levels and treats depression, rheumatoid arthritis, and cardiovascular disease, infection and boosts the immune system. The power of green tea is the catechin polyphenols or epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). It is a potent anti-oxidant and inhibits the growth of cancer cells and the abnormal formation of blood clots. Is there any drink better than green tea?

Vegetables Salad

Do you like salad? I had vegetables salad on the other day. I loved it! I liked Soup Plantation, they have a huge salad bar. But you have to be picky when it comes to this situation. Here are many tips I got from Yahoo to get a healthy salad; less fat and calories:

* Go dark on greens
* Go bright on veggies: Next, add about 1 cup of the most colorful crudités – broccoli, carrots, cherry tomatoes, green and red peppers, beets, like that.
* Choose lean proteins: Aim for about ½ cup of these. Chickpeas and kidney beans are nifty sources of fat-free protein (6 grams each). Sliced hard-boiled eggs (8 grams) are another smart choice; just limit the yolk to limit the fat
* Sprinkle on extra flavor and crunch: Like cheese
* Dressing: Now swirl on about 1 tablespoon of heart-healthy olive oil, a splash of vinegar, a grating of pepper, and toss.

Healthier Drinks

Soda is not really good for you. Coca-cola, Pepsi and many more are high in fructose. If you are craving sweets or refreshments, you can have the healthy alternatives. Here they are:

1. Light yogurt and fruit smoothie. Creamy and sweet, high in calcium and only 174 calories per cup.

2. Tomato juice – contains beta carotene and lycopene

3. Organic soda that doesn’t contain high fructose. I get this kind of Soda from Safeway sometimes. The brand is O- Organics. They taste really good. They are fruit-flavored soda. No caffeine at all. It is organic. But it is best to avoid any kind of soda because carbonation affects the stomach. However, carbonation and phosphoric acid in the soda can cause calcium loss in the bones.

4. Apple cider. I love apple cider.

5. Tea or coffee, unsweetened.
