Kind: captions Language: en all right all you coffee lovers out there you can join me in uh enjoying a cup of Joe and I'm going to tell you why today we're going to talk about five reasons you should actually drink coffee every single day for your health and the first reason is that coffee slows down cellular aging if you want to actually be in the moment and not speed up your aging it turns out that coffee can actually do that there is a bioactive in cof coffee beans called chlorogenic acid and this has been studied in human subjects drinking coffee one to three cups a day has been of drinking coffee has been shown to slow down the burn rate of your uh tiir these are the caps at the end of your DNA that burn down like a fuse that reflect how fast you're actually aging it's kind of the clock that gets the timer that gets started from the time you're born and the older you are uh the the fuse starts to shrink drinking coffee slows that process down and all you got to do to get that effect is to drink anywhere from one to three cups of coffee a day I easily meet that uh level myself okay second reason that you actually want to drink coffee is that uh coffee actually protects stem cells in your body now our stem cells live in our bone marrow and they come out into our bloodstream to repair Us From the Inside Out happens all the time but as we get older our stem cells are a little bit less vigorous than when we're younger and uh and a lot of things can affect this including oxidative stress from the environment and just simply aging and so one of the things that coffee does is it protects acts as a shield to our stem cells so they can actually keep on working as robustly and vibrantly as possible regenerating us From the Inside Out third reason to have coffee every day is that coffee improves our metabolism coffee contains something called chlorogenic acid and chlorogenic acid uh activates our metabolism and the way it does it is by stimulating the production of brown fat and we've got different kinds of fat in our body there's white fat that's Wiggly and jiggly and brown fat that's wayer thin and one of the things that brown fat can do is uh get turned on uh like a space heater uh and when it turns on like a space heater it's a process called thermogenesis and coffee turns on thermogenesis you know why thermogenesis in brown fat is useful because the brown fat will uh uh be triggered and it'll burn down the harmful white fat the visceral fat so good fat fights bad fat and coffee actually makes that happen so you actually get more energy uh and it increases your metabolism the other thing it does is actually um helps you lose body fat and you can actually lose weight uh that way and Studies have been done to show that drinking up to four cups of coffee a day can actually help you lose body fat in fact up to about eight pounds of body fat over about six months or so not a huge amount by itself but every little bit counts especially when it's actually um burning away your harmful white fat now another thing that uh coffee does is it's anti-inflammatory so chlorogenic acid in coffee is very anti-inflammatory we know that inflammation is the root cause for a lot of the diseases of aging and so coffee enjoy your cup of joe actually helps you enjoy the rest of your days longer and better because it actually chills out uh inflammation as well and then finally coffee improves gut health it turns out that uh when you drink coffee the coffee chemicals actually get down into your gut and it protects our gut microbiome it shifts the gut microbiome into a healthier state so you've got better neighborhoods of gut bacteria and as you know better gut health is better overall health because our gut bacteria lower inflammation and the way it does that is by releasing a metabolite called short chain fatty acids or scaas scfas that you lower inflamm and guess what drinking coffee helps your gut bacteria make more short chain fatty acids more scaffa so these are all really great reasons why you would actually want to drink uh uh coffee every single day and now I'm going to give you some Pro tips Pro tip number one is you want to get organic coffee if you want to get the most out of the chlorogenic acid and the reason is this coffee like other plants uh actually produce bioactives like chlorogenic acid in response to insects that are in its natural environment right so what do bugs in the natural environment do they nibble on the leaves and the stems and the coffee plant makes chlorogenic acid as a response it's kind of a wound healing response it's trying to heal itself when those insects are nibbling on it now what do you think happens when you actually spray pesticides on the coffee Bush the bugs aren't nibbling as much so it makes less chlorogenic acid so you get organic no pesticides more natural bugs nibbling away at it it's going to produce more of this healing substance chlorogenic acid good for the coffee plant even better for us when we actually drink it so um so get organic coffee when you whenever you can fair trade of course now the other tip about coffee is that although for years I enjoyed my coffee with a little milk or a little Cream Dairy okay I like it that way turns out that's not the best way to drink coffee so I actually have it straight now and the reason is this the chlorogenic acid and coffee floats around in t tiny little molecules in the the coffee but when you put dairy in it Dair is made out of dairy fat and those little fat uh particles form soap bubbles that trap the chlorogenic acid all right so now you drink the coffee that you have some cream or milk in it and guess what the chlorogenic acid is trapped in the soap bubble and it just trickles down your gut and you get rid of it poop it out on the other end and you don't actually absorb all of it so if you want to get the most out of the chlorogenic acid you'll absorb some if you have dairy but not all but if you want to get the most out of it just have your coffee straight or if you want to cut the coffee taste a little bit you can actually use a nut milk almond milk uh soy milk all of those will actually uh work just fine uh they don't actually form those little soap bubbles that we're talking about hey if you're enjoying the cont in this video then you will love my resource on what I call the grand slammer Foods these are the foods that support and activate all five of your body's Health defense systems angiogenesis regeneration microbiome DNA protection and your immune system all at the same time I put together a special guide describing these Grand slamming Foods just for my viewers and you can get it totally free right now at the link in the caption below now back to the video okay now the last little tip I'll tell you about coffee uh is something that surprised me because when I was in medical school and I drank tons of coffee just to stay awake all right one of the things that we always were taught or I thought it was true was that coffee if you drink a lot of coffee it causes it's a diuretic and it causes you to go to the bathroom and you can actually get um urinate you can actually get dehydrated if you drink a lot of coffee well guess what clinical studies have been done and it showed that if you drink moderate amounts of coffee you know 3 to four cups of coffee a day it doesn't actually cause you to be any more dehydrated than if you just drank water all right so coffee does not dehydrate you coffee uh actually does all these great things so let's recap coffee slows down cellular aging coffee stimulates your stem cells coffee improves your metabolism by burning down harmful body fat and watch you lose some weight along the way and coffee is anti-inflammatory and coffee improves gut health all right all these benefits from coffee one of my Favorite Beverages I drink it in the morning as it it pick me up all right I do think the caffeine uh is really good and if you're sensitive to caffeine you can try to get decaffeinated coffee all right that would be fine it still has chlorogenic acid but just know that the decaffeination process removes a lot of the um caffeine not all a lot but it also uh removes some of the other bioactives as well but some people are sensitive and it's just fine if you want to actually have that taste of coffee and get some of the benefits decaf will actually work uh as well just not as good as the full test coffee which is my beverage of choice all right I hope you found this useful and thanks for watching hi there if you enjoyed watching this video I know you'll love the next one stay here and check it out and I'll see you there there
