Scientists have found that people living on the Greek island of Ikaria enjoy a longer, healthier lifespan and it may be due to the way they prepare their coffee. Instead of using methods that remove beneficial polyphenols, they boil it in a way that retains its unique compounds. Greek islanders who consumed this polyphenol-rich coffee were found to have healthy  endothelial function that scientists suggested may play a role in their longevity.

Among the most beneficial coffee polyphenol is chlorogenic acid, an inhibitor of an enzyme called glucose-6-phosphatase. This enzyme stimulates the excess creation of glucose  in the liver, which can result in blood  glucose elevation.

For coffee lovers who like to freshly grind  their own coffee beans, Rich Rewards® Breakfast Blend Whole Bean Coffee  is made using a patented, 100% natural process called HealthyRoast® This process delivers a more complete nutritional profile of the coffee bean, yielding up to 87% more chlorogenic acid than conventional coffees.

Handpicked deep in the rainforests of Central America, Rich Rewards® consists exclusively of 100% USDA certified organic arabica coffee beans, gently roasted in small batches—with the polyphenols then added back in to provide optimal health benefits.

We also offer Rich Rewards® Breakfast Blend Ground Coffee— so you can kick-start your day a little faster— in both caffeinated and decaffeinated options. For those who prefer a flavored coffee, Rich Rewards® Breakfast Blend Ground Coffee  is available in natural vanilla  or mocha  flavors. Like our regular Rich Rewards® whole bean and ground coffees, these flavored ground coffees are roasted using the patented HealthyRoast® process— which preserves the special, naturally occurring coffee compounds that soothe (instead of  irritate) your stomach.

This unique process also guarantees a higher content of healthy polyphenols.

• Whole bean savory taste
• Ground coffee for added convenience—caffeinated or decaffeinated
• Regular ground coffee taste or two naturally flavored options
