Your Morning Cup of Coffee has Surprising Health Benefits

Does your morning cup of coffee leave your heart racing, to the point that you question ditching your daily cappuccino for some herbal tea? If you have been wondering whether it’s time to dial back on your daily caffeine intake, for the sake of your health, this article is for you. Rest assured, by the end of it you likely won’t feel the need to cut out your morning java altogether.

But, before you leave your work desk to head to your nearest café, there are some adverse effects to be mindful of. Our next blog takes a look at the affect coffee has on your blood pressure and whether cutting back is the best move for your personal heart health.
