Purity Coffee


If you have followed us for awhile, you know that  we believe quality coffee can have a place in a health-promoting lifestyle. In fact, we believe quality coffee can have numerous health benefits and we will discuss some of them in this post. We are excited to spread the word on our favorite coffee company-Purity Coffee!

Organic

Purity Coffee sources their coffee beans using the highest organic standards. Regulations on pesticides in the coffee industry in the United States are pretty relaxed. In fact, many coffee growers in other countries continue to use pesticides that have been banned in the United States and Europe. Because there are no maximum residue limits (MRLs) in the United States, conventional coffee drinkers are susceptible to unknown levels of pesticide and herbicide exposures. When coffee is organically certified, it is monitored for pesticides. Therefore, to ensure safe coffee, it is imperative to purchase and drink organic coffee.

Mold and Mycotoxin-Free

Not only is conventional coffee a source of pesticide exposure, it also poses risk for significant mold and mycotoxin exposure. Many of our patients and even some of our family members are highly mold susceptible and have suffered immensely due to mold and biotoxin illness. While roughly 25% of our population have the potential to struggle with mold sensitivity, most are unaware of the devastating health consequences it can have. 

Mycotoxins, toxic chemical metabolites that mold species produce, can cause considerable impact human health. There are various mycotoxins present in coffee and other foods. Two particularly harmful ones to be aware of in coffee are Aflatoxin B1 and Ochratochin A.

Our family is very susceptible to various mold species in our environment. Not wanting to give up our daily cup of coffee with intermittent fasting, we knew we had to source coffee that was certified be free of pesticides, mold, and mycotoxins. We are thankful to be able to drink Purity Coffee with peace of mind!

Rich in Antioxidants

Coffee is one of the top foods high in antioxidants. Roasted coffee beans outshine foods such as green tea, kale, cranberries, dark chocolate, and blueberries by leaps and bounds. When coffee is roasted to a certain point, the antioxidant levels begin to rapidly diminish. Purity roasts to the “sweet spot”, ensuring high antioxidant levels and delicious taste.

Low in Acrylamide

Coffee, even high quality coffee, can have a compound called acrylamide, which studies show may cause cancer in animals. Oftentimes coffee producers will try to remove acrylamide by introducing other cancer-causing chemicals.  Additionally, when coffee is roasted at high temperatures, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are formed. Purity Coffee uses a smokeless roasting process to remove acrylamide and preserving the many antioxidants in the coffee. 

Sustainable

The coffee industry oftentimes lends itself to unfair wages and labor conditions for their farmers. Purity Coffee is deeply committed to sustainable agriculture. This means that the needs of coffee growers and workers are met, coffee farmer’s quality of lives are enhanced, environmental quality is promoted, and sustainable farming operations are upheld.

Fresh

Purity coffee ships their coffee within 48 hours of roasting for maximum freshness. Not only does this protect the health benefits within the coffee, but also makes for exceptionally delicious coffee! Similar to fruits like apples and bananas, coffee beans are subject to quickly oxidizing. Purity treats their coffee with non-toxic nitrogen to prevent oxidation and secure freshness within the coffee beans.

Feel Great

One aspect we particularly appreciate about Purity Coffee is that it offers a sustained, clean energy to those who drink it. You will not feel nervous or jittery when drinking this coffee. Not only that, sometimes conventional or contaminated coffee can cause an upset stomach. This coffee should not cause those symptoms!
