benefits of coffee

According to Harvard Women's Health, the consumption of several cups of coffee a day may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, kidney stones, colon cancer, Parkinson's disease, liver damage (cirrhosis), heart disease and prevent cognitive decline in brain power.

• Diabetes. Twenty studies conducted around the world shows that coffee reduces the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 50%. The researchers suspect the cause is chlorogenic acids in the coffee serve to slow absorption of sugar in digestion. Chlorogenic acid also stimulates the formation of GLP-1, a chemical that increases insulin (the hormone that regulates the absorption of sugar into the cells). Other substances in coffee that is trigonelin (pro-vitamin B3) is also thought to help slow the absorption of glucose.
• Cancer. Research has consistently shown that coffee reduces the risk of liver cancer, breast cancer and colon cancer.
• Cirrhosis. Coffee protects the liver from cirrhosis, particularly cirrhosis due to alcoholism.

Studies of a number of men in Finland showed similar results.
• Cognitive function. A study of 4197 women and 2820 men in France showed that drinking at least three cups of coffee a day can prevent decline in cognitive function due to aging of the brain up to 33 percent in women.

An exhibition that was held in the U.S. (with substantial funds, covered Java coffee industry) to make the American public became familiar with this drink coffee and dub as Java. Archipelago, especially Java, the largest coffee exporter and best in the world. Unfortunately, an outbreak in the 1880s, which destroyed arabica coffee grown under 1km altitude above sea level, from Shri Lanka to East. Brazil and Colombia has taken over as the largest exporter of arabica coffee, until now. Meanwhile, most varieties of coffee in Java is replaced with liberika. But soon, a similar outbreak destroy these varieties as well, so that eventually 90% of coffee in Java is replaced by robusta varieties, except in places of high betul2.

Once the invaders are expelled, coffee kebun2 nationalized and / or privatized. Is PTPN XII (a State-Owned company) who now runs the coffee called Java Estate. PTPN XII which manages several plantations in the mountains of Ijen (East Java), up to now still maintain arabica varieties with very high quality. Kebun2nya located in Blawan (2500 Ha), Jampit (1500 Ha), Pancoer (400 Ha), Kayumas and (400 ha), with a height of between 900 to 1600 m above sea level. Annual output reached about 4 thousand tons of green coffee beans. 85% of the exported beans before baking. If you happen to see a Starbucks in Bandung, and observe any labeled bag of Java Estate coffee, well that's Java coffee around the world before returning to his country.
Near the region of PTPN XII, are also plantations Kawisari and Sengon, with an area 880 ha, and the altitude is lower than kebun2 PTPN XII. 95% robusta coffee, and the rest arabica. The result is widely used for the coffee industry in the vicinity of East Java. In Central Java, in the region surrounded Losari no less than 8 volcanoes, there are also plantations Sejong (formerly Karangredjo).

Colombian Coffee

Colombian Coffees are thought to have reached Colombia in the 1500s along with Jesuits priests. Export of the first Colombian coffee bean began in 1835 with just over 2000 bags. Now exports of Colombian coffee beans worldwide are in the millions, making up about 11-14% of the worlds production. You can find mainly Maragogype, Caturra, Typica, and Bourbon cultivars grown in Colombia today. While Brazilian coffee is #1 volume-wise, and Colombian had held the #2 spot for a long time, recently Vietnam slipped in ahead of Colombia pushing it to the #3 spot. Of course Vietnamese coffee is the lower quality robusta, so the quality difference of beans is clear. I would much rather have a cup of Colombia coffee than Vietnamese robusta coffee any day.

Sometimes incorrectly spelled Columbian coffee or Columbia coffee, it is known for perfect balance and heavy body. Exclusively arabica coffee, it is grown at high altitudes, in the shade of native trees. The volcanic soil and dry climate provide excellent growing conditions.
There are two main coffee growing regions in Colombia: the Central Region and the Eastern Region. The Central Region of Colombia is known as "MAM". MAM stands for Medellin, Armenia, and Manizales. The Eastern Region of Colombia is a mountainous area around Bogotá and Bucaramanga. They are all known for a heavy body and richness, but the Eastern Region tends to have lower acidity than the MAM area.

Coffee arabica

Coffee arabica (pronounced /əˈræbɪkə/) is a species of Coffea originally indigenous to the mountains of Yemen in the Arabian Peninsula, hence its name, and also from the southwestern highlands of Ethiopia and southeastern Sudan. It is also known as the "coffee shrub of Arabia", "mountain coffee" or "arabica coffee". Coffea arabica is believed to be the first species of coffee to be cultivated, being grown in southwest Arabia for well over 1,000 years. It is said to produce better coffee than the other major commercially grown coffee species, Coffea canephora (robusta), but tastes vary. C. arabica

contains less caffeine than any other commercially cultivated species of coffee. Wild plants grow to between 9 and 12 m tall, and have an open branching system; the leaves are opposite, simple elliptic-ovate to oblong, 6–12 cm long and 4–8 cm broad, glossy dark green. The flowers are white, 10–15 mm in diameter and grow in axillary clusters. The fruit is a drupe (though commonly called a "berry") 10–15 mm in diameter, maturing bright red to purple and typically contain two seeds (the coffee 'bean').
