9 Organic Coffee Brands to Wake Up To
As a coffee super fan, I love to share about the health benefits of coffee – including that fact that it has been associated with a reduced risk of several chronic diseases including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and Parkinson’s disease, as well as a lower likelihood of liver and endometrial cancers.
But what about organic coffee? Is organic coffee better than conventional coffee? Is organic coffee healthy compared to non-organic coffee? Is there good reason to switch to drinking organic coffee instead of regular coffee?

Benefits of Organic Coffee
Here are 4 reasons to make the switch to organic coffee:
- Organic farming practices are more sustainable for the long term health of the environment.
- Coffee is one of the most chemically treated crops in the world. Organic coffee is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers, which which means those toxic chemicals aren’t making their way into your coffee cup.
- Organic coffee is safer for coffee farmers because they are not exposed to a high levels of chemicals.
- Studies have shown that organic coffee contains higher levels of polyphenols and other antioxidants than non-organic coffees.
