I recently read an interesting article in Mens Health magazine.
If you are anything like me then you are not quite ready to give up on your morning joe regardless of the heartburn that it may cause.
Luckily a new study from Germany revealed that dark-roasted coffee stirs up less stomach acid than the lighter brews.
Researches believe that these acid-blocking properties in the lighter brews may come from N-methylpyridinium, a compound in coffee that increases with roasting.
If you are suffering from heartburn but not ready to cut coffee out of your diet than consider trying a French or Italian roast which are both rich in N-methylpyridinium.
