    "Healthy Coffee", no longer an oxymoron!

    Coffee is a 90 billion dollar industry! In North America 85% of the population drinks anywhere from 3 to 5 cups of coffee daily. No better way to start the day, right?

    Yet, because of this we are seeing growing health problems related to caffeine and acid intake. A prime example is the alarming growth in cardiovascular disease related in part to the increased heart rate and heightened blood pressure caused by caffeine. Caffeine also stimulates the production of stress hormones raising anxiety levels, muscular tension, indigestion and a decreased immune response. The human body is a finely tuned instrument requiring a specific pH balance. The highly acidic nature of regular coffee can alter that balance and contribute to a variety of health problems including arthritis and gastrointestinal issues.

    These are but two among a laundry list of minor to severe ailments that can be caused, or contributed to, by the consumption of "regular", that is to say "not healthy", coffee. Although coffee itself does contain a number of healthful attributes, the negative consequences of caffeine and acid content have caused many thinking persons to quit drinking coffee altogether.

    But, need the "baby" (the rich aroma and taste of coffee and the energy boost it gives) be thrown out with the "bath water" (the negative impact of caffeine and acid , the jitters and sleeplessness)? Is the term "healthy coffee" just an oxymoron? In a word, "no".

    A company in Malaysia, Gano Excel, has developed a method to combine organically grown Ganoderma Lucidum, also known as Reishi, with a naturally grown, low caffeine Brazilian coffee. This product has lower caffeine than decaffeinated coffee yet maintains the robust flavor and "boost" of fine coffee. What gives this unique product it's healthful properties is the Ganoderma Lucidum, or Reishi, mushroom. This mushroom, also known as the "King of Herbs, has been used for more than 4000 years in traditional Chinese medicine. Clinical studies have shown that it is an immunoenhancer, that it can help reduce stress while maintaining energy levels. Amazingly, this coffee actually helps balance the body's pH level... in fact, Gano Excel coffee, when mixed with water, has the same pH as human blood.

    Now, with real naturally-low-in-caffeine coffee as the delivery medium, coffee drinking America can enjoy the benefits of this ancient "King of Herbs, with their morning, afternoon and evening
    cup of java and enjoy both great flavor and better health and the same energy boost they expect from regular, caffeinated coffee.

    What is Ganoderma (Reishi)?

    What is Ganoderma (Reishi)?

    Ganoderma Lucidum is the scientific name for a species of Red Mushrooms and is said to be more powerful than Ginseng. Known as the "Miraculous King of Herbs", Ganoderma (also known as Reishi in Japan and Youngchi in Korea) is listed as a Superior Herb in Sheng Nong's Pharmacopeia, an ancient Chinese Herbal Text dating back over 2,000 years.

    Ganoderma lucidum is renown for its medicinal properties. Reishi often is associated with health and recuperation, longevity, wisdom, and happiness.

    The Chinese name ling zhi translates as the “herb of spiritual potency” and was highly prized as an elixir of immortality. Its Traditional Chinese Medicine indications include treatment of general fatigue and weakness, asthma, insomnia, and cough.

    Western culture has often had mixed views about the use of herbal supplements throughout the years; however for Eastern cultures, it is almost considered a way of life. With people in North America looking for alternatives to better health, the properties and benefits of Ganoderma Lucidum have become of interest and appeal.

    How notable and valuable is Ganoderma? The first Emperor of the Chin Dynasty (221-206 BCE) sent 500 attractive men and 500 beautiful women in search of this herb said to be located on a mysterious island. They never returned. Legend says it was these people who colonized Japan. Read more:

    Why is this coffee healthy?

    Gano products contain Ganoderma Lucidum (Red Mushroom, also called Reishi). These prized mushrooms have a history that dates back more than 4,000 years. Ancient generations realized Ganoderma provided them more vigor and energy, while reducing fatigue. Ganoderma is said to be more powerful than Ginseng!

    Ancient ingredient (Reishi) creates "instant" results with over 150,000 pages of third party validation! With over 200 active elements, Ganoderma Lucidum is a powerful antioxidant which contains an entire complement of vitamins, trace minerals and enzymes together with an entire family of polysaccharides, lactones, alkaloids, immune system boosters, adaptogens and anti-allergens. All this and fine Brazilian Coffee.Without equal in the world of natural foods and herbal remedies Try its exceptional taste, aroma and flavor.

    We also offer Tea, Hot Chocolate and a terrific Mocha. All with the same healthy benefits. For more info on the benefits of Ganoderma Lucidum visit the web and do a search for Ganoderma.There are MANY more articles available on any major search engine by doing a search for Ganoderma.

    Also, our healthy coffee is low in caffeine (about 8-14mg per cup - less than GREEN TEA - regular coffee has over 60mg per cup!) but you get the EXACT SAME BOOST that you want from the Reishi in our coffee! It also is low in acid and has a 7.3 to 7.5 pH level. That is the same pH level as our blood. No hormones or chemicals are used in our healthy coffee. Our Reishi coffee has been known to detoxify the body and help the pH balance. The more chemicals and toxins we have in our body then the more fat the body manufactures.

    Our dog likes Gano coffee

    I know, I know dogs are not supposed to drink coffee, but we have two thieving, opportunistic Alaskan Malamutes and especially JJ is very good at getting at things he is not supposed to eat or drink. So he found a half empty cup with Gano coffee and drank it all. He only eats and drinks what he really likes because in true Mal fashion he is quite the gourmet. I did not see him do it, just noticed the empty cup and our girl Beeley gives it away because she was in hiding also the telltale tongue marks in the cup spoke clearly of the crime.

    Lesson learned, I have to guard my coffee better, not only our kids like it, but also one of the mals. Go figure.
