5 reasons why I love coffee (and you should, too)

If you roll out of bed and don’t even run a brush through your hair before your morning cup of coffee, then this blog post is for you! And even if you aren’t a regular coffee drinker, chances are you might become one after reading this.

Here are 5 reasons why you should really enjoy your cup of coffee. Studies have shown that coffee may have health benefits, including protecting against liver cancer, type 2 diabetes and Parkinson’s disease. Coffee also appears to decrease the risk of depression and fight obesity.

According to Bob’s Arnot book ‘The Coffee Lover’s Diet: Change your coffee… Change your life’, coffee can improve your mood, help your metabolism, boost your workout and generally help you focus better. To get the most from your favourite drink, you should steer clear of certain bad habits when it comes to preparing and drinking your brew – like cutting back on sugar and cream, buying higher-quality beans or washing the coffee machine after each use.

Coffee lovers don’t need much, aside from really good coffee. Instant and quick-serve speciality coffee is generating a lot of attention right now, and with good reason.

No more drama brewing coffee at home or at work – simply add boiling water or milk to a measure of HER Cold Brew Coffee Concentrate and you’ve got yourself a delicious cup of coffee.
