Coffee and your life span

Most of us gotta have our black jet fuel in the morning.  We add sugar and cream, but no matter how you take it, it’s your daily ritual.  One day, science says it’s great for your health and the next, it’s terrible for you.  Still, there are 5 tried-and-true agreed-upon health benefits.  The American Heart Association has found that coffee lowers the risk of death.  Science says that coffee provides critical antioxidants.  They’re the substances that slow aging and prevent disease by blasting those pesky free radicals.  Coffee improves your mood, especially if you’re female.  It lowers inflammation which is the scourge of modern-day humans because it causes many diseases.  Coffee reduces the risk of Alzheimer’s, the chances of coming down with prostate cancer in men and Type 2 diabetes.  Drink up and enjoy a longer life so you can spend more years with your grandchildren!
