Coffee has been enjoyed by millions of people around the world for at least a thousand years. Apart from it's wonderful aroma, the attraction of coffee lies in its properties as a stimulant.
In many people, coffee enhances alertness, concentration and mental and physical performance. This is due to its caffeine content. The average cup of instant coffee contains about 60mg caffeine while filter coffee contains about 85mg. For those who are sensitive to caffeine and prefer decaf blends, the decaffeinated beverage contains only 3mg.
Some have worried that coffee is not good to consume during pregnancy, but there is no sound evidence to suggest that modest consumption of coffee has any effects on the wellbeing of an unborn infant. There is also no evidnece that coffee increases the risk of breast, ovary, pancreas or kidney cancer in women.
There is also evidence that coffee protects against colon cancer and some preliminary evidence that it protects against male breast cancer. Some even use coffee for colonic irrigation.
There is no evidence that coffee increases the risk of heart disease. Some have reported heart palpitations and a rise in blood pressure after coffee consumption, but there is no persistent hypertensive effect in the long term.
Others have claimed that drinking coffee promotes indigestion, but this is not the case in the majority of people, although it has been known to produce heartburn in people with gastro-oesophageal reflux problems. But there is no evidence that coffee increases the risk of peptic ulcers and there is some evidence that it protects against gallstones.
Evidence is growing that coffee might protect against developing Parkinson's disease and possibly Alzheimer's. Diabetes is still under investigation. Because coffee is a diuretic, it is important to drink enough fluid to replace what is lost.
Coffee is rich in anti-oxidants, far moreso than other common beverages. This is due to compounds formed during coffee bean roasting. Anti-oxidants prevent free radicals from multiplying and are a major deterrent of chronic illnesses such as cancer and heart disease.
In recent years the gourmet coffee industry has come of age. Discerning consumers have come to expect distinctive coffee tastes and aromas with all the passion of fine wine connoisseurs.
Coffee lovers all over the world are discovering the experience of the finest gourmet coffees which can be ordered with a few mouse-clicks on the internet and delivered to your door or workplace shortly after. Boca Java gourmet coffee and teas are fast becoming one of the main players in the online coffee market.

Boca Java Gourmet Coffee Review
In recent years the gourmet coffee industry has come of age. Discerning consumers have come to expect distinctive coffee tastes and aromas with all the passion of fine wine conniseurs.
Boca Java is one of the many suppliers who has "answered the call" and markets gourmet coffee beans and accessories from around the globe, via the internet. This article will provide an independent review of Boca Java products and service.
According to the suppliers, they pride themselves in using only handpicked, specialty-grade Arabica coffee beans, chosen from selected high altitude tropical regions. Each location produces coffee beans of distinct taste and character.
Their biggest claim is freshness. They don't start roasting your coffee beans until after your order is received.
Boca Java also claim an interesting online shopping experience. You can choose your coffee blend by country of origin, by flavour (I counted about twenty different flavours), or if you're just looking for a quick smooth tasting dark roast with full bodied satisfaction, they have a webpage especially for that.
They also provide coffee accessories, such as brewing and grinding apparatus, coffee pots and cups, coffee storage devices, scoops, filters, milk whips, coasters - you name it. You can also order tea and cocoa as well... with all the accessories to go with it.
Finally, there's the "coffee club". Here's where you get all the specials and discounts and also earn "boca bucks" which can be exchanged for gifts and prizes. At the coffee club you can learn anything you want to know about coffee, including coffee's health benefits. You can also place 'standing orders' and choose your own delivery terms, which can be changed at your whim. Just love it.
I've read that you need to be careful about accepting one of their introductory "special offers" for a "free" coffee grinder and sample packages. The claim is, that Boca Java take this as a green light to provide you a regular supply of their coffee and extract money from your account. Whilst I have not experienced this myself, I believe that if you want to avoid any misunderstanding, you need to join their "coffee club". It costs nothing and you are given the option to modify or cancel your orders anytime. They notify you by email seven days before coffee is due for delivery and this is when you opt to cancel, change or reduce the order.
Their website looks very impressive. Just the pictures alone make you want to buy. You can almost smell the coffee coming out of your screen. All in all, it appears an attractive alternative for gourmet coffee lovers, with all the convenience of online orders and delivery to your door.
