Woweeeeeeee! Need a jump start in the morning? Many of us are used to starting off the day with a hot beverage. Americans drink 400 million cups of coffee per day! Did you know that coffee inhibits the absorption of minerals like iron, magnesium and zinc as well as B vitamins? Studies have also linked consumption to osteoporosis, heart disease and even miscarriages. There is a lot of information out there about the benefits as well as the harmful effects of coffee, so the best way to know how it effects you is to pay attention and see how you feel after sipping on a cup, and then how you feel 2 hours later. Does the caffeine sustain you for the entire day or leave you needing more? Might there be an alternative to your morning ritual?
