Organic coffee VS. civet coffee (monkey poop)

Do you like to eat poop? Well if you do, this does not concern you. The world's most expensive coffee these days comes from the Asian Palm Civet which is a monkey. And you thought coffee came from trees? Well, this particular fad of coffee comes from the excrement of the Palm Civet. The process goes like this, the Palm Civet eats the coffee cherries and only partly digests them . Then the coffee farmer comes around and collects the partially digested cherry seeds and uses these to brew coffee. Sound tasty? You can pay up to $350 a pound for this type of coffee and you thought your fancy coffee shop where you have to add your own milk to the coffee was expensive.

What makes Organic coffee organic? To be considered Organic in the US coffee farmers have to use only organic fertilizer. When farmers use organic fertilizer this creates a natural eco-system in which birds find habitat in the trees and in doing so help control the insect population. Another benefit of Organic Coffee is that there are no harmful chemicals absorbed into the beans themselves. Meaning that as a consumer of coffee you won't have any in your cup. Using natural fertilizers helps prevent soil erosion as well as adding nutrients back into the soil. Win-win for mother earth.

It is up to you the consumer to make the choice of which type of coffee you want to put in your mug: poop coffee or organic coffee.

Coffee and Exercise:

Organic coffee 
Why you should drink coffee before you WOD (workout of the day). Coffee has some very beneficial aspects for the activate person, more than you might think. Other than being a "must" for many people first thing in the AM before they tackle anything, caffeine has been found to help continue to burn calories for up to three hours post workout at a fifteen percent increase as compared to that of the placebo per the InternationalJournal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism. 

Coffee also has the added benefit of helping you burn fat, yes I said burn fat. Caffeine has been help proven to burn fat at an increase of 10% to 29%. The reason that many "weight pills" contain caffeine is because it is a natural fat burner. What better way to get your caffeine is there than through a cup of organic coffee

Caffeine helps to stimulate the nervous system. In doing so it helps break down the fat cells in the body by turning them into energy. 

As with anything that is good for you the key is to not overdo it. The recommend amount of caffeine to have is 6 mg per 2.2lbs of body weight. For example if you weigh 175 you should have 477 mg of caffeine, which is about 20oz of coffee. 

So feel free to drink that coffee before you work out!
