If you drink coffee or tea, you don’t want to miss this short article today, as it could save your health…
In today’s modern world, we’re being assaulted from every angle by toxic chemicals that cause cancer, harm our hormones, cause weight gain, and so much more. That’s why it’s so important to do everything you can to protect yourself from the chemicals we’re exposed to from so many products we use.
And one of those places you are being exposed to harmful hormone-killing cancer-causing chemicals is your coffee cup.
In fact, in one study, it was found that 15 minutes of hot coffee or tea in a coffee shop coffee cup leached 25,000 microplastics and even more nanoplastics.
These plastics chemicals are known to harm your hormones, causing reduced testosterone in men, and hormone imbalances in women too.
These plastics chemicals can also contribute to weight gain because of the hormone disruption they cause, and are even linked to cancer risks as well.
The reason that coffee shop paper cups leach all of these plastics chemicals is that paper cups would disintegrate if they weren’t plastic lined, so all coffee cups have a plastic-based lining in them to keep them from falling apart in hot liquid.
And hot liquids are known to easily leach plastics chemicals, especially if the liquid is acidic too, like coffee.
So if you frequently drink coffee (or tea) from coffee shop cups, you are exposing yourself every single time to harmful plastic-based chemicals that harm your hormones, cause weight gain, lower T levels in men, and might even contribute to cancer risks as well.
But I have TWO simple solutions to protect yourself…
It’s actually easier than you would’ve imagined to protect yourself…
1. The first way is to simply make your coffee at home in a real mug instead of a plastic lined paper cup at a coffee shop. I’d recommend organic beans too since typical coffee beans can contain a lot of harmful pesticide residue.
2. However, if you love visiting coffee shops either daily or just occasionally, I’d recommend to simply always carry your OWN metal coffee mug in your car at all times, and whenever you stop at a coffee shop, you now have a SAFE mug to ask them to make your coffee in that doesn’t contain harmful plastic lining.
And you can also feel good about your choice to do this, because you’re producing less waste that goes to landfills and using less paper so less trees are used to make all these one-time disposable cups.
That’s a triple win! No harmful plastics chemicals in your coffee, less waste, and less trees cut down to produce all those wasteful cups. Easy peasy.
Speaking of hot drinks… This hot drink below was shown in a promising study to boost anti-aging stem cells 220% in only 30 days… And those stem cells help improve your heart and artery health as well according to the study…
