BLESSED TUESDAY, coffee-loving creators! 🌼☕️
Many enjoy coffee for its aroma and energy boost, but few realize it is also the greatest contributor to antioxidant intake in modern diets. While berries, teas, and dark chocolate are excellent sources, coffee stands out because of its rich natural compounds and daily global consumption. ☕️
For optimal antioxidant benefits, 2 to 4 cups of brewed coffee per day is ideal. For espresso drinkers, that equals about 4 to 8 shots daily, spaced throughout the day.
Anything beyond that may cause
• Jitters or restlessness
• Increased heart rate or blood pressure
• Digestive discomfort or sleep disruption
Instant coffee usually has fewer antioxidants and may contain additives, while freshly brewed or espresso coffee keeps more of its natural compounds.
⚠️ Caution: Those with heart conditions, anxiety, acid reflux, or caffeine sensitivity should consult a doctor or limit their intake.
Moderate, quality coffee remains one of the most accessible daily sources of antioxidants. Enjoy your ☕️
