Is This The Best Gourmet Coffee Available?
I recently saw an ad that talked about a certain new brand of coffee that touted itself as being the best gourmet coffee in that it tastes good and also helps people lose weight. My first thought was “how can something that has zero calories contribute to weight loss?” Of course some coffee beverages have a lot of calories because of the cream and sugar that is added, and so I thought the answer might come from using some kind of sugar substitute.
But the real answer was elsewhere. It turns out that the coffee is formulated with certain additives which has been known to help foster weight loss. For example, a certain extract of citrus has been shown to help suppress one’s appetite, and this is included in the formula along with other things. The coffee itself is 100% Arabica, so it has the potential to be very good, assuming the roasting and grinding processes have been done skillfully. If the coffee tasted great and actually did contribute to weight loss, it might actually be the best cup of coffee one could find.
