If you’re among the growing number of people who enjoy quality coffee but don’t want to lose any sleep over drinking it, here are a couple good reasons to drink decaf. Decaf can deliver all of the taste and aroma without caffeine’s side effects. You have the right to expect great tasting decaf!
Today’s decaf has come a long way in terms of taste and choice. You no longer have to compromise on either. In fact, you may not be able to tell the difference, except for how relaxed you feel afterward. Look for the SWISS WATER® logo at your local café. You won’t be disappointed.
Why deny yourself that mid afternoon coffee break just because you’re worried about how long caffeine normally takes to leave your system (12 hours, in case you’re counting).
Decaf contains the same antioxidant content as regular coffee. Minus the jitters. Think of it as a holiday from heart palpitations.
If you’re always on the go with a lot of physical activity, caffeine is wonderful - in moderation.
Another reason to drink decaf is not needing to pass up on the almond hazelnut biscotti or milk chocolate mousse just because you have nothing warm to wash it down with.
