Incredible New Discovery That The Big Coffee Companies Won’t Tell You About…


“Discover A Powerful Ingredient That Will Not Only Neutralize The Acidity Of
Coffee, But Eliminate Some Of The Other Known Harmful Effects Of Drinking
Coffee…”


Secret #1: The Coffee Industry Is Huge, And A Very Profitable One.

Okay, I know that isn’t a very big ‘secret’. Data from the Coffee Research Organization and the National Small Business Development Support Center Clearinghouse clearly show that coffee is the second most popular beverage in the world, second only to water. Americans alone consume 400 million cups of coffee per day…which translates into four and a half thousand cups of coffee per second!

Daily consumption of coffee beverages has remained consistent in 2009, with 54% of the adult American population claiming to drink coffee on a daily basis. What this is telling us is that even through tough economic times, people are still consuming coffee.

However, the fact is that industry figures show that despite the pervasive gourmet coffee shop, 70% of coffee is still consumed at home.

The thing is, although consumers may be cutting back on purchasing their coffee from coffee houses, most coffee lovers aren’t likely to give it up completely. As a result, companies offering home brew coffee may actually see an increase in their sales as more consumers decide to make their favorite cup of brew at home.

The coffee industry is huge…an $18 billion dollar industry in the United States. Independent shops are responsible for $12 billion of that in annual sales, meaning the rest of that money is spent by folks brewing their coffee at home. Do you think the major coffee manufacturers are taking notice of that? You bet they are!

Given that information, you can see why the major coffee companies don’t want you to know about something that would take money out of their pockets.

“The Major Coffee Manufacturers Will Use Their Financial Strength To Advertise The Benefits Of Consuming Their Brand…And Diminish The Facts About The Harmful Side Effects Coffee Has On Your Health…”

The coffee industry keeps a close eye on all of its competition, and would by nature defend itself from something that might challenge their control of the market, and reduce their profits. Face it, they are in business to make money, and they know people are going to continue to consume coffee on a regular basis. So, they continue to place their coffee in front of you, the consumer, and in doing so hope you
don’t notice the other options available to you.


Secret # 2: Caffeine Is A Drug And Should Be Treated As One

Caffeine is a drug that has been widely used for centuries. Although caffeine does not fall into the class of "addictive" drugs, it still may be habit-forming. Many people experience headache, fatigue, irritability and nervousness if their daily intake of caffeine is substantially altered. In fact, in 1912 the Pure Food
And Drug Act was amended to include caffeine to the list of "habit-forming" and "deleterious" substances which must be listed on a product's label.

“Regular use of caffeine may lead to "habituation"…which means no net benefit from use, but rather, a negative effect if the drug is not taken.”

The main short term effect of caffeine is that it is a mild stimulant of the central nervous system, which helps to reduce feelings of drowsiness and fatigue. (Isn’t that why most of us drink coffee?)

Besides the above-mentioned central nervous system stimulant effect, caffeine also temporarily increases your heartbeat, increases blood pressure, and stimulates the action of the lungs. It also increases basal metabolic rate (BMR), and promotes urine production.

Too much caffeine can also result in restlessness, jitters, nausea, headache, tense muscles, sleep disturbances, and cardiac arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats). Because caffeine increases the production of stomach acid it may also worsen ulcer symptoms or cause acid reflux ("heartburn"). Afternoon use of caffeine may disrupt sleep and cause insomnia.

For these reasons, caffeine should be used cautiously by people with heart disease and high blood pressure (hypertension), and by those suffering from the eye disease glaucoma.

“Coffee consumption statistics show that coffee represents 75% of all the caffeine consumed in the United States.”

Consumed in large amounts, and especially over an extended period of time, caffeine can lead to a condition known as caffeinism. Caffeinism usually combines caffeine dependency with a wide range of very unpleasant physical and mental conditions including nervousness, anxiety, irritability, muscle twitching, insomnia, and headaches to name a few. So, yes, you should be concerned about how much
coffee you consume.

Warning: An acute overdose of caffeine can result in a state of central nervous system over-stimulation called caffeine intoxication. Symptoms may include restlessness, nervousness, muscle twitching, a rambling flow of thought and speech, irritability, irregular or rapid heart -beat, and psychomotor
agitation. In cases of much larger overdoses, mania, depression, lapses in judgment, disorientation, disinhibition, delusions, hallucinations, and psychosis may occur, and rhabdomyolysis (breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue) can be provoked.


Secret # 3: Your Body Only Functions Well At A Neutral PH, And One Of The Major Downsides Of Drinking Coffee Is That It Sends Your Body Into An Acidic State!

As little as one cup of coffee sends your body into an acidic state. It actually takes 14 cups of water to neutralize this acidity, and another 2 cups of water to offset dehydration! Imagine then, the amount of water you would have to drink if you had 3 – 4 cups of coffee!

Furthermore, because caffeine increases the production of stomach acid, high usage over time can lead to stomach ulcers, erosive esophagitis, and even acid reflux disease.

“The pH balance of the human bloodstream is recognized as one of the most important biochemical balances in our body’s chemistry.

The reason your body pH is so important is because pH controls the speed of your body's biochemical reactions. It does this by controlling the speed of enzyme activity as well as the speed that electricity moves through your body.

If we say something has an acid pH, we are saying it is hot and fast. Think of it this way… look at the battery of your car. It's an acid battery, right? This is because on cold days you want it to be hot and ready, so that it will start fast.

Here is an example of how pH can control your body. Take a look around at society as a whole. You see people getting exhausted, burned out, and quick to anger. You see a rise in violence and road rage. This could be due in part to the fact that people today tend to have an acid pH. As a society in general, we are running ‘hot and fast’. How did we get to this point? We guzzle coffee for breakfast (acid), fast food
for lunch (acid), wash it down with super sized colas (acid), followed by that afternoon cup of coffee (acid), and maybe have a pizza (acid) for dinner. Given this scenario, you could easily blame the rise of violence in our society with the increasing number of fast food restaurants and espresso stands on every
corner! OK, I’m getting a little side-tracked here…

Your body’s PH is under the immediate control of what you put into your mouth. Makes sense, right? What you eat and drink will have a direct impact where your body's pH level falls, and your body's pH controls the activity of every metabolic function in your body.

PH is behind the body's electrical system (nervous system) and intracellular activity, as well as the way your body utilizes enzymes, minerals, and vitamins. That is why PH is one of the first things a doctor looks at if you are experiencing any type of unbalance in your body. And since your body's PH level is a direct result of what you eat and drink, anytime you are experiencing imbalance, you need to look at
what you have historically been eating and drinking. It's a circle. You can’t separate the two.

What you eat and drink is directly tied to the functioning of your digestive system as well. From your mouth through your small intestines and on through your colon, that system plays the most important part in your physical well being. This whole system, what you feed it, and how it impacts your pH, is what determines whether you have perfect health or not. It really is that simple.

“Introducing One of The Most Powerful Nutritional Natural Herbs On The Planet, The Ganoderma Mushroom. The Ganoderma Mushroom Is Known for Its Ability to Naturally Help Improve the Body’s PH.”


Secret # 4: The Ganoderma Mushroom Has Over 200 Active Nutrients, Vitamins and Minerals.

The Ganoderma is a type of mushroom, which is also known as the Reishi mushroom. It has been well used and documented as a medicinal treatment throughout China for over 4000 years. The Chinese refer to the Ganoderma mushroom as a “spirit medicine”, and use it to promote longevity. In ancient times, this mushroom was reserved for Kings, as it was relatively rare and hard to find. Now, thanks to modern technology, this mushroom can be farmed, making it more affordable and accessible to the average person.

“Here Are A Few Of The Important Benefits Of The Ganoderma Mushroom That Make It Right For You”

1. The Ganoderma Mushroom, or Reishi Mushroom, has one of the highest number of antioxidants found in any plant on earth. It has over 160 antioxidants that work to reduce the oxidative stress in your body by ridding it of free radicals formed due to food intake or environmental free radical exposure.

2. Contains special nutrients known as alkaloids. Alkaloids are very important because they mitigate your body’s PH balance and counteract acidity.

3. The Reishi mushroom has triterpenoids that help support the digestive tract and enhance digestion.

4. Another important nutrient found in the Reishi mushroom is adaptogens. The caffeine in coffee over stimulates the adrenal gland, which increases the production of cortisol…a stress hormone. That is why some folks get the jitters when they drink coffee. Adaptogens neutralize this effect, and have a normalizing influence on the body.

5. According to the Bulletin of the Oriental Healing Arts Institute, reishi acts as an agent for promoting an increase in leukocytes, which in turn increases the number of disease fighting T-cells in the bloodstream.

6. May help you enjoy refreshing, deep sleep.

7. Helps create a positive mood by maintaining the brain oxygen level for a feeling of well being and increased mental focus.

8. Promotes a stronger immune system.

9. Helps maintain healthy skin, lungs, and urinary tract.

10. Supports healthy blood and cholesterol levels, as well as healthy liver function.

“Finally, You Don’t Have To Venture Into The Wilderness To Enjoy The Benefits Of The Reishi Mushroom, A Remarkably Beneficial Fungus For The Human Body.”


Secret # 5: With 100% Certified Organically Grown Ganoderma Mushroom In Their Blend, A Unique And Delicious Healthy Coffee Has Been Developed Which Is Helping Coffee Lovers All Over The World Enjoy Their Coffee Without Its Harmful Side Effects.

Developed with the goal of providing a great tasting, smooth blend of coffee that everyone will love to drink, a healthy coffee has been made available that provides the smooth rich flavor that coffee lovers crave, while providing protection from acidity and the ‘caffeine effect’. This healthy coffee uses a custom blend that combines the best of both worlds, arabica and robusta coffee beans, and adds 100%
certified organic ganoderma. The ganoderma makes it a healthier choice, and neutralizes the negative effects of the acid and the caffeine found in ‘regular’ coffee.

“WHY AM I SO PASSIONATE ABOUT THIS COFFEE?”

That’s a great question. Let me tell you why I am so excited by this amazing coffee.

I have been a regular coffee drinker for as long as I can remember. I don’t want to say that I am ‘addicted’ to coffee, since that word has such negative connotations, but I honestly can’t imagine starting my day without my cup of coffee. However, I was starting to notice some of the caffeine effects after a couple of cups of coffee…I was getting a little jittery. That made me a little nervous.

In addition to the jitters, I was having trouble sleeping at night. The lack of sleep was starting to affect how I felt the next day…a general lack of energy and trouble concentrating for starters. My health is extremely important to me, but so is enjoying my coffee! I tried to drink less coffee, but that really wasn’t a good solution for me. So, after doing some research, I found what I had been looking for…a
healthy coffee! Now, I know that sounds like a contradiction in terms, but really, there is a healthy way to enjoy coffee.

I have been drinking this coffee infused with the ganoderma mushroom for some time now, and I feel amazingly better. I can drink this coffee without the negative effects of caffeine, even though it is not decaffeinated.

Most importantly, I have to tell you that this is real coffee, and tastes like real coffee. I know you may be thinking that this coffee must taste horrid, but honestly, it tastes just like the coffee you know and love. You see, the reishi mushroom is bitter, but the bitterness of coffee offsets that, and therefore the taste
of coffee prevails. You absolutely cannot taste the mushroom in the coffee.

Wouldn’t it be something if you could drink a few cups of coffee each day without feeling or worrying about the effects of caffeine or the acid in coffee?

I know that there are many people out there, just like me, that are thinking about the negative effects coffee may be having on their health. That is why I cannot keep this information to myself. I think I have an obligation to share what I have found with others that share my love for coffee.

I also know that some of you may be skeptical, and I can certainly understand that. All I can say is don’t let your skepticism get in the way of improving your health and still enjoying that cup of coffee you love.

Respond to this report, and let me help you discover what I know. I have helped countless others make one small change that has improved their health and quality of life. I can help you too, if you:

1. Have an honest need and desire to improve the quality of your health.

2. Are open minded about new concepts.

3. Are absolutely committed to do whatever it takes.

You see, I put this report together out of concern for you, my fellow coffee lover. I honestly hope you found it informative and helpful. I have a sincere desire to help anyone and everyone who possesses the qualities mentioned above. So, if that is
you, send me an email at atlcoffeehousegmail.com with your name, questions and concerns. You can also get more information, browse the products and get samples at our website at http://bit.ly/4nX8O6 Please allow up to 24 hours for me to respond to your email.

Healthy Detox after the Holidays of Overindulging


Wonderful




Stuffed with stuffing, filled with turkey, crammed with cookies, and saturated with alcohol. Now what? Holidays call for celebration, and many of us know the consequences that come from overindulging in alcohol and food. Sometimes, despite out best intentions, we overdo it. This holiday season, detoxify and recover naturally with the tips that follow.

FOOD OVERLOAD
Chinese medicine views proper digestion as the most essential component in living a long and healthy life. Your digestive function is made up of numerous organs all working together to break down, absorb, and process all of the nutrients in the food you eat. Without healthy digestion, you can become malnourished and toxins will build up in your body, leading to degenerative diseases and rapid aging down the road.

Indigestion is caused and made worse by overeating--especially rich, fatty, spicy foods, alcohol, coffee, and acidic foods. These remedies will get your digestion on the right track.

ONE HOUR AFTERWARD:

Walk it off
After a large meal, take a 10- to 20-minute stroll. Aside from the proven benefits to your heart, walking is the perfect gentle exercise for promoting digestion and encouraging cleansing of the lymphatic system. Walking helps food move along the digestive tract, improving digestion and absorption. For added benefits, walk while massaging your abdomen with your palms, in a circle around your belly button.

Herbal tea brings relief
Relieve that feeling of fullness with herbal teas that target your digestion: Steep 1 teaspoon each of mint, rosemary, oregano, cilantro, sage, and basil and in a cup of hot water. Drink after each meal to soothe and prevent bloating. Peppermint, chamomile, and ginger tea are other good choices for settling the stomach. Also, look for Chinese herbal formulas like Indigestion for digestive support and cleansing.

THE MORNING AFTER:

Start with apple cider
Apple cider vinegar is traditionally used to remedy digestive distress, support liver detoxification, normalize digestive juices, and reduce intestinal bloating. Mix 1 tablespoon of organic apple cider vinegar with 12 ounces of warm water, and drink in the morning on empty stomach. Feel free to add a little honey or maple syrup. Lemon water will also help.

Eat right to lighten up
These meals will help your body recover from overindulgence.

> Breakfast: Eat oat bran cereal, brown rice, or any other whole grain cereal (as long as it is unbleached and does not contain any added sugar or chemicals.) Pair with unflavored soy milk.

> Lunch/Dinner: Eat any combination of beans, brown rice, oat bran, vegetables, and organic chicken, turkey, or soy-products.

> For a powerful Super Cleanse Broth, simmer any combination of the following ingredients for an hour: collards, Swiss chard, kale, mustard greens, cabbage, dandelion, Brussels sprouts, daikon radish, watercress, seaweed, shitake mushrooms, cilantro, garlic, leeks, fennel, anise, fresh ginger, and turmeric. Drink 8 ounces twice a day.

> A popular herbal formula is Internal Cleanse, a special combination of natural herbs to detoxify, clear the mind, promote emotional balance, and ease digestion. For more information.

Try a detoxifying exercise
This movement is from Liver Cleansing Qi Gong, a body-mind exercise that was designed by ancient Chinese physicians to help stimulate the liver and drain the excess toxins from the body:

1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart in front of a tree. Inhale while raising your right leg and exhale while placing your right foot on the ground in front of you between your body and the tree.
2. Inhale while raising both arms from the sides until they come together over your head. Exhale while lowering your hands in front of your face. Visualize green light running down your face as your hands move down to your chest.
3. Inhale as you move your hands to the right rib cage over your liver. Exhale as you move your arms down your right abdomen and right leg, as if pushing down and out with your hands. Visualize the green light moving the toxins out of the liver, down the liver meridian on the inside right leg, and out the big toe.

ALCOHOL OVERINDULGENCE
The liver is one of the hardest working organs in your body and performs a wide variety of functions. Its most important ones include the processing of nutrients, the production of bile to help in digestion of food and eliminating wastes, and cleansing the blood of toxins such as drugs, alcohol, and other dangerous substances.

The liver has the ability to regenerate itself, but the effects of alcohol eventually wear down the liver. I strongly suggest that you keep your drinking to a minimum for the longevity of your liver and your health, but on that rare occasion when you overindulge, consider these remedies.

ONE HOUR AFTERWARD:

Ginger tea to the rescue
Ginger is an ancient Chinese remedy to minimize the symptoms of hangovers. Ginger has been found to soothe the digestive lining and balance gastric juices, making it a great remedy for overeating, too. This remedy is even more effective if you drink it in between alcoholic beverages.

Cut a 2-inch piece from fresh ginger root, and thinly slice. Bring three cups of water to boil in a pot. Add the sliced ginger and reduce heat to a simmer. Brew for about five minutes. Then strain out the ginger and sip the tea slowly. You may also add honey to taste.

Drink up!
Water, that is. Though this is hardly a secret remedy for combating a hangover, it bears repeating. Alcohol dehydrates your system, so drinking plenty of water will help combat some of your unpleasant hangover symptoms, rehydrate your body, and flush out toxins. Drink a few glasses of room temperature, filtered water after a night of holiday extravagance.

THE MORNING AFTER:

Start with lemon water
First thing in the morning, drink one lemon squeezed in 12 ounces of warm filtered water. Lemon activates your liver to release toxins and helps to cleanse and move the roughage that stays behind in your intestines. Throughout the day, drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water to flush your system.

Detoxify with herbal tea
Chinese traditional medicine uses natural substances to help support the healthy functions of your liver, lymphatic system, bowels, urinary tract, and skin. Try these herbs in teas to cleanse and prevent a buildup of toxins and wastes in your body:

* Chrysanthemum flower is traditionally used to cleanse the liver and neutralize toxins.

* Hawthorn berry is used to cleanse the blood of plaque and other toxins.

* Turmeric supports the detoxification process in the whole body by increasing bile production and releasing and eliminating toxins. Simply put a tablespoon of the spice in a pot and stir over medium heat for five minutes.

* Milk thistle protects and restores the liver, due to its content of silymarin.

* Dandelion root has been found by studies to enhance the flow of bile, relieving liver congestion, which in turn aids the body in detoxifying.

Popular is Hangover, a Chinese herbal remedy that is helpful for relieving symptoms of hangover.

Heal your aching head
If you wake up with a "morning-after" headache, try this herbal tea to reduce head pressure: Boil 2 tbsp each of chrysanthemum flowers and mint leaves in 4 cups of water for 15 minutes. Drink throughout the day until your headache subsides.

I hope this article helps you recover from the effects of overindulgence!

Happy Holidays!
