Why in the world would You Want a Coffee Alternative?

Well we all joke about the delirious effects of our beloved Java Juice but in the end we know deep down the stuff is just really not good for us.

Everyone has likely seen the cartoon with the man holding a smoking shot gun standing next to the breakfast table with his family laying there dead as door nails. The caption below reads “a little bit too much caffeine this morning there Bob?”

Sure we laugh at it, but why? Well, because we can in some way relate. You see something is not really all that funny unless there is at least a little smattering of truth to it.

The fact of the matter is we all know what it feels like to have everything from just a little too much caffeine in our systems to whoa someone please stop the planet from shaking type of caffeine loads. And so then it really goes without saying that we should all stock up on a good coffee alternative and at least replace most of our caffeine that way.

One of the real dangers that we face every day with coffee is one that no one is really talking about much in the media these days. The challenge is, toxic pesticides. You see way back in 1972 we banned DDT from being used here in the good ole US of A, but U.S. Corporations still make it in various locations around the world. We make it because the R & D was paid for decades ago, so it’s really, really cheap to produce. Let me ask you, what countries are looking to buy the cheap stuff? You guessed it, 3rd world countries. Next question, who grows our coffee? Right again, 3rd world countries.

So, we ban DDT because we are sure it causes all manner of health problems for humans such as going blind, birth defects, DNA Damage ect.. There is a much longer list of all the problems it causes but I’m sure you get the drift.

We, then make DDT in outside of America under subsidiaries owned by U.S. companies. Then we turn around and sell it to the third world countries that are growing our coffee. They of course use it, why wouldn’t they, it’s the cheapest and it works really well at killing bugs. Let’s face it, if they are hand picking the beans because labor is cheaper than machines and they are carting the stuff down the mountainside on a Burro, do you really think they are paying top dollar for the newest high tech sprays?

No way, they are buying the cheapest sprays they can get that will kill the bugs so they can turn a profit. It’s really just a matter of economics, they simply can’t pay those high prices even if they wanted too.

That’s just one really good reason for you to get a world class coffee alternative as soon as possible. I wouldn’t want to be drinking that stuff, no way. You might say well what if it’s organic? My question to you is then this, in countries where you can forge just about any document for under $100 why wouldn’t a farmer say his crop is organic when it means thousands of dollars more into his pocket for the same amount of work. I’m not being pessimistic just looking at reality.

That’s why I so strongly urge you to get your hands on a high end coffee alternative as soon as possible so that you can safeguard your health.
