Coffee
1 ___ Worried about having another cup of coffee? Now the worry isn’t necessary. After years of hearing only
bad news about one of the most popular hot drinks, research has shown that coffee is a very good source
of antioxidants.
2 ___ Antioxidants are vitamins and minerals that prevent oxidation that can damage cells, boost the immune
system, and possibly reduce the risk of disease.
3 ___ Other foods also are high in antioxidants. Red grapes, dates, and cranberries have more antioxidants than
coffee, but they aren’t as popular as coffee.
4 ___ The study isn’t a recommendation to start drinking more coffee, but it does show that coffee does have
some good qualities.
5 ___ Other recent studies have shown that coffee could also be beneficial since it protects the liver and colon
and can help the body protect itself against diabetes and Parkinson’s disease.
