choose organic coffee

If you are worried about pesticide contamination in your coffee, choose a quality, organic brand.

Don’t drink too much coffee

Drinking too much coffee may cause adverse side effects. However, this depends on the amount of caffeine consumed and individual tolerance.

Add cinnamon to your coffee

Spice your coffee with a dash of cinnamon. Not only does it taste good, it might also improve your health.

Avoid low-fat and artificial creamers

Non-dairy creamers are highly processed and may contain questionable ingredients. If you like diluting your coffee with a creamer, consider choosing whole milk or cream.

Add some cocoa to your coffee
