I don’t mind another cup of Coffee

Classic or standard coffee with a spoon of coffee mate, or sometimes pour with spoons of powdered milk, and if unavailable evaporated or condensed milk are good alternate. Instant 3-in-1 coffee if favored, these is how my sister does her cup of coffee. She used to store various kinds at home such as café latte and cappuccino. Until negative body reactions occurred, she then switched to decaffeinated coffee, yet not as frequent drinker as she was. Recently, she discovered this Nescafe Relax, decaffeinated with chamomile. It was her who introduces the complete coffee mix to our mom.

I am not a coffee fan, but tried the new Relax twice, when our chocolate container was empty. Not bad! And for me, the taste has no difference with the rest of the coffees Nescafe has market, well maybe my sister and mom savor the difference, that drinking a cup of this newly discovered coffee became their morning routine.

Once in a while, it isn’t bad to treat yourself with a cup of coffee. I would love to make myself another mug especially if it is served with some native “kakanin” (goodies or dainties) . And I wouldn’t mind another cup even if our chocolate container is jam-packed. Hey, this is not a paid post :)

Caffeine - good or bad?

Soft drinks, coffee, chocolate and tea, caffeine is present in these drinks. What really is caffeine and what bad reaction or effect can it bring to our body, it is discussed in this article.

Caffeine is a flavorless substance that improves our body’s energy temporarily and acts as refreshment to our nervous system. Study shows that caffeine especially in coffee can reduce the risks of some illness like Diabetes and Parkinson’s disease, to mention the few. But the key there is moderation. Anything excessive is considered bad. Too much consumption or intake of caffeine is not advisable, for our body will get agitated. Extreme intake could result to tremors and sleeping problem, to mention some bad effects. If we are the kind of person who is addicted to caffeine, we have to gradually decrease our intake.

The question now, is too intake caffeine to our body or not? It is us personally, who knows how much caffeine in our body is needed. The older we get the greater caffeine we take. Remember though that to remain healthy, moderation is the secret.

The next time we go for a drink, consider the caffeine content and decide whether to drink or not to drink. THINK!
