Friday Favorites: Which Coffee Is Healthier - Light Roast, Dark Roast, or Low Acid?
Channel: NutritionFacts.org
Date: 2022-12-23

Dark roast coffee is more effective than light roast coffee in reducing body weight. Does low-acid coffee help those who suffer from acid reflux, heartburn, and indigestion?

Isn’t that amazing!? I love how it was their own study that did them in, but hey—good for them for allowing it to be published and not just quietly buried. Or maybe they tried, and the researchers held strong? Either way, this is how science is supposed to work, and I’m excited to bring it to you!

The videos I showed are Does Coffee Affect Cholesterol? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/does-coffee-affect-cholesterol/) and Does Adding Milk Block the Benefits of Coffee? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/does-adding-milk-block-the-benefits-of-coffee).
