Some people just can't get through a day without drinking coffee. Fortunately, according to Experts' Opinion, young scientists from Korea found out that coffee improves blood circulation and reduces clogging of blood vessels. This makes drinking coffee daily good for the heart.

Experts further explained that people who drink 3-5 cups of coffee every day have a lower possibility of having a blocked coronary artery due to calcium buildup in them. In this study, they found out that it directly contradicts the earlier beliefs that adding caffeine to the body could cause heart diseases.

The study was done by an international team of researchers, in the Kangbuk Samsung Hospital in Seoul, South Korea. They found that people who consume a moderate amount of coffee had the least risk of coronary calcium in their arteries. It involved 25,000 respondents not less than 41 years old. Interestingly, they found out that people who drink coffee have 40% less calcium buildup in their arteries compared to non-coffee drinkers. Aside from this study, there were already previous reports that prove the benefits of coffee, which serve to strengthen the expert findings in Korea.

In the beginning of December, my wife and I visited our homes in Manila. It was a 35km (22mi) ride and we're both tired. We didn't want to risk riding home (in boring heavy traffic) sleepy, so we dropped by at Daniel's Coffee.

We enjoyed fast and free wi-fi while sipping our frappes and enjoying our cakes.

Not only that, there wasn't any dull moment as we took pictures from different angles and it was a haven for photography enthusiasts like me.

That hour was just not a busy one for the shop, so we're lucky to be able to take lots of selfies.

There's nothing to dislike about the place. The shop assistants are friendly, they give you your order quickly and they're happy to answer our questions.

Going back to the benefits of drinking coffee, I think it's reasonable to believe that black coffee without sugar is the best because you get the antioxidants without the added fat from cream and it won't spike your blood sugar, unlike soda or other sweetened beverages. Although I can't do totally without sugar, I tend to put much less sugar than before whenever I make coffee at home. I often brew coffee myself. I like ground coffee from my Dad's hometown (in the province of Batangas), which is well-known for "kapeng barako" (strong brewed coffee). I sometimes use skimmed milk too. It tastes a bit weird but I got used to it.
