Coffee Alternative Taste Testing

Описание: Aaah! Good morning! I'm here enjoying a NICE – HOT- CUP of coffee alternative drink. And in today's video I have invited a guest, Anna Green, who is a true coffee drinker and we are going to do a taste test of my favorite coffee alternative drinks.

There was a study done in 2010 by European Journal of Clinical Nutrition that investigated the effects of coffee on endothelial function in the heart's arteries. So what this study looked at was to see if blood flow was hampered after drinking coffee. And what they found out was there a 22% decrease in blood or arterial flow after people drank coffee!

Not only that they found that that participants’ blood pressure increased. At both 30 and 60 minutes. So even though there have been no long-term studies done on this it is reasonable to assume that daily consumption of coffee could damage to endothelial cells long-term and increase a person’s risk for suffering a heart attack or stroke – especially if you already have coronary artery disease. Now if you're like I was, I loved my french press and drank a lot of espresso. Well according to Harvard University they have also determined that espresso coffee raises blood cholesterol levels, but it's not that way with filtered coffee, perked coffee, or even instant coffee. It's limited to espresso.

Today we're going to be testing 3 different coffee alternative drinks Pero, Dandy Blend, and Roma.

Thank you Anna for your help in this video today!
