Can coffee boost our memory?

On the MF Products blog page, we take pride in learning. It’s truly amazing understanding how powerful coffee can be and how consuming MF Coffee, can genuinely aid your life in becoming easier and better overall. One of our readers this week asked if it’s true that coffee can “boost our memory”.  The MF Products Team absolutely loved the question and therefore took the time to research and delve into all the facts before posting this blog. But anyways, here we are. So, without further ado, let’s get into this.

There have been numerous studies that have suggested that caffeine has many health benefits. Now, due to technology and research there’s possibly evidence to suggest that a dose of caffeine after a learning session may help to boost long-term memory. This is according to a study published in the journal Nature Neuroscience.

A research team led by Daniel Borota from the John Hopkins university in Baltimore, distinguished that despite there being previous research that had analysed the effects of caffeine as a cognitive enhancer, there wasn’t much studies in detail that determined if caffeine could impact long term memory.

This led to 160 participants between the ages of 18-30 years old being analysed. One the first study day, these participants were given pictures of different objects and were asked to identify them as “indoor” or “outdoor” items.

After the test, the volunteers were randomised to either receive 200mg of caffeine or a placebo with no caffeine at all. The next day, the same people were shown the same pictures as well as some new ones and were asked to identify which were “new”, “old” or “similar”.

It was found that the subjects who consumed caffeine were better at identify the pictures that were similar as opposed to those who took the placebo.

This was fantastic news for The MF Products Team, as we were able to correlate this back to whether “coffee can improve our memory”. A cup of MF Coffee on average will contain around 94.5 mg of caffeine and from the research conducted the minimum amount of caffeine required to initiate this “memory power” is around 200mg. This conclusively meant that 2 cups of MF Coffee are what would be needed in order to “improve our memory”.

How to make the MF Soursop smoothie.

  Good evening MF Blog readers, we hope you all are staying active during this cold Christmas season. As the year draws to a close, MF Products still have a variety of tasty recipes to broadcast and this week we will be looking at how we can use our MF Soursop to make some delightful treats. Today we will be making our very own MF Soursop smoothie with bananas and almonds. We chose bananas due it’s alpha and beta carotene content when consumed by the body, this then turns in vitamin A. Bananas are also a good source of potassium and due to its low water content, it contains more calories and is more filling. This pairs wonderfully with the benefits of soursop (previously mentioned in another blog) as it; possesses antioxidants, fights against bacteria, and boosts the immune system. Almonds are also very beneficial as they contain unsaturated fats, fibre, magnesium as well as protein. When adding all three ingredients together, this is a very healthy smoothie that will help to ...

What is the best type of coffee?

Good evening my MF Product Blog readers, it’s been a while but we’re back with more content for you guys. Today, we saw a reader ask, “Out of all the different types of coffee, which one is the best?” and we believe it’s a great question. However, we also think that it depends on what you’re drinking for and that is what we will be investing in todays MF Blog . So, without further ado let’s get into this. A good cup of coffee is one that does whatever job it is that you assign it. Whether it be the most rank, percolated cup of coffee that you’re in dire need off for that extra boost or the most complex mocha made with MF Coffee that finesses your tongue with a touch of foam while you eat an olive shortbread. I know, fancy. The point is that there are so many variations of coffee to tickle your fancy. So, given that there are lattes, cappuccinos, and mochas the point this is that, while the ingredients are simple, the experience is not. There is nothing crazy about ordering a capp...
