Starbuck's Coffee May Help Prevent Skin Cancer?
Rusty Moore
Good news coffee drinkers! A recent study at Rutgers University found that exercise and caffeine, used together, doubled the levels of the tumor-suppressing protein "phospho-p53". Exercise alone boosted this protein by 18% and drinking two cups off coffee increased this protein by 27%.
Although it appears that exercise and coffee each have health benefits, combining them together seems to have the greatest impact. The ability to double the level of a tumor-blocking protein is outstanding news.
"We think this points out a need for more studies to see if the combination will protect people against sunlight-induced skin cancer," said the study's Senior Researcher, Allan Conney, the Director of the Laboratory for Cancer Research at Rutgers University.
It was found in a previous study that the caffeine in green tea was significant on its ability to repair damaged skin cells. While the caffeinated version of green tea was effective, the decaffeinated version of green tea was not.
Here is How I Combine Caffeine and Exercise Effectively
1) Try to have a completely empty stomach before working out
2) 30 minutes before exercising drink two cups of black coffee or 3-4 cups of green tea
3)Hit cardio hard for at least 30 minutes, since the caffeine will have an increased fat burning effect on an empty stomach
See...I knew coffee was good all along! How could something be wrong if it feels so right! Now don't go crazy here and add a bunch of cream and sugar. Stick with plain tea and plain coffee for maximum fat burning and health benefits. I really enjoy the "Iced Americano" or just Iced Brewed Coffee the best. I guess I am biased about all of this stuff, since I live in Seattle...which is basically the espresso capital of the U.S.
So caffeine will give you the energy to exercise hard while on a low calorie diet. This will help you burn body fat at a quicker rate...as well as reduce your chances of getting skin cancer. I see nothing but positives here!
