There is another certification called “utz” meaning “good inside”. They offer health care to farmers and their families. They also let the farmers decide how much they want to sell their coffee for, rather then assign them a fixed price like fair trade does. You might want to look into it. I think Fair Trade is overrated. http://www.utzcertified.org/

A strong cup of coffee in the morning can feel like a life saver. The study tracked 129,000 men and women over two decades.

Heart disease is an umbrella term for conditions including heart attacks, stroke, and arrhythmia.

I am aware of some of the health benefits of coffee. Some other health benefits include preventing type-2 diabetes, diseases like alzheimers, as well as parkinson’s disease.

Thank you for letting me share…
