About Me
The Healthy Bean coffee enhances the antioxidants already found in coffee, many of which are lost during roasting. In a patented process, this organic and Fair-Trade certified coffee is infused with low-lactose whey protein and antioxidant compounds from pomegranate, blueberry, grape seed and green tea to create a truly revolutionary beverage. The Healthy Bean’s antioxidants are sourced from the highest quality laboratories in the nutraceutical industry.
Protein and Antioxidant Facts
The Healthy Bean coffee is enhanced with high quality nutrients, including five grams of protein and the antioxidant compounds from four food-based sources. These are then incorporated into organically grown ground coffee in a state-of-the-art, patented process. Studies suggest that antioxidants may provide anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and cancer inhibiting properties. The Healthy Bean’s protein and antioxidants are sourced from the highest quality laboratories in the nutraceutical industry.
Healthy Bean coffee is infused with 5 grams of high-quality whey protein isolate. That’s 10% of the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of protein for healthy adults. Whey protein isolate is a complete protein, containing all of the essential amino acids required in the daily diet. Amino acids repair body cells, build and repair muscles and bones, and provide energy to the body. It is 90% protein, with little to no fat, lactose, or cholestorol, and is one of the most digestible forms of protein available.
The compounds found in grape seed extract include oligomeric proanthocyanidins, more commonly known as OPCs, which are thought to be more powerful antioxidants than vitamins C, E and beta-carotene. OPCs have been shown in research studies to promote cardiovascular, brain, skin and eye health; and antibacterial, anti-viral, and anti-inflammatory activities.
Green tea contains a substance called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which plays an important role in the prevention of a wide array of diseases including cardiovascular conditions and cancer as well as gastrointestinal disorders, periodontal disease and dental cavities. Pure EGCG is one of the most active components of green tea. It is a natural and highly effective antioxidant, and also has antimicrobial, antiangiogenic, antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory properties.
The Healthy Bean uses a high-anthocyanin wild blueberry extract featuring extremely high ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) and chlorogenic acid levels. Benefits include anti-aging, cognitive function, glucose management, cardiovascular, vision and urinary tract health. Blueberries contain high levels of anthocyanins and numerous other polyphenols, which are powerful flavonoid antioxidants. Blueberries provide large amounts of chlorogenic acid, which is thought to be one of the “cancer fighters†found in fresh fruits and vegetables. Additionally, blueberries contain strong anti-inflammatories such as the arthritis-relieving pigment cyanidin.
Pomegranate is known for its high content of antioxidants in general, and particularly tannins and flavonoids. Pomegranate shows strong and combined anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory potency. Such potency supports use of pomegranate for people with cardiovascular conditions, tendency to hyperplasia and cancer development. In addition, pomegranate offers antibacterial and antifungal activity.
