I found a new coffee at my grocery store called Fitness Coffee and since I’m working out and trying to be more fit, I decided to try it. The package read that it has “3.5 times the antioxidants that green tea has and significantly more than red wine.” The price was about $1 more than my normal coffee, so what the heck?

Fitness Coffee

Fitness coffee does not taste like other coffee!! With all the extra herbs and supplements added, it tastes like my dieter’s tea, which is a diuretic. So, naturally, I was afraid when I drank it right before work one Tuesday morning. Luckily, there have not been any crazy side effects or sudden urges to run to the bathroom.

The website claims that it’s patented formula “could enhance your workout, speed up your metabolism, help you lose unwanted pounds, and speed up muscle recovery.” There are all sorts of ingredients including liquorice, mints, cinnamon, cancer fighting, and tumeric. I’ve been drinking it for a week, although not every day, and I do feel I have lost some water weight with it and maybe my metabolism has sped up a bit. After a few days I decided to only use 2 scoops (instead of 3) and add a scoop of my usual, decaf coffee to help with the bitter taste.
