Talk about waking up on the other side of the bed… this morning my eyes caught this title in the online news, Nervous About Alzheimer’s? Coffee May Help.
I am a die-hard Starbucks fan, no two ways about it, and take a lot of good-natured kidding around the office including being given a Princess wand for being too good to drink the office coffee, and from those who question my sanity for drinking hot coffee on a hot day.
Recent studies indicate that if we want to protect our brains from developing Alzheimer’s later in life, we should be more passionate about drinking coffee now. Not just a timid cup or two, but five cups a day, or about 500 mg of caffeine.
Talk about good timing… just when I have science on my side, I’m living at Park and Market where the options for a new coffee stop or two are lining up right outside my front door.
- THE OBVIOUS – Starbucks, Panera Bread and Chick-Fil-A
- THE NIGHTCAP TO A FINE MEAL – Firebirds, Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Bonefish Grill, and Midtown & Bar 115
- THE PATIO – Hot Point Café, Bruegger’s Café and Espresso Bar
- THE ELEGANT – Flights at The Renaissance, Coquette, Piola and Vivace
Back to protecting your brain… researchers also say it takes more than coffee. If you want to learn more, be sure to try Brain Games on the back side of Bruegger’s Patio every Wednesday morning from 9:00 to 10:00.
