Alex's Low Acid Organic Coffee - 4-bag Variety Pack (12oz)

Do you love coffee, but cannot handle the acid or caffeine? After weight loss surgery, when you have heartburn, or simply in the evening before bed, a cup of Alex's Low Acid Organic Coffee can be warming and satisfying without causing the least bit of discomfort! 100% satisfaction guaranteed!!

Alex's Low Acid French Roast is a special blend of three highly sought-after beans (50% Chiapas, 25% Nicaragua, 25% Honduras) and is mild, delicate, and balanced. It is perfectly roasted to a medium-leaning dark, almost French, Roast. It is dark enough to have a full body and chocolatey personality, but there is no burnt or bitter taste. Instead, the flavors in these beans are still detectable, and that is a great thing!

Alex's Low Acid Organic Decaf contains 100% pure Chiapas coffee beans. Grown in southern Mexico, near the border with Guatemala, Chiapas coffee beans have the same characteristics as Guatemalan beans that you would expect from the volcanic soil and high altitude they grow in. They are mild and delicate, with slightly sweet notes of brown sugar and pear. They also have a nutty overtone.

Our coffee beans from Chiapas, Mexico come from an organic co-operative formed over 20 years ago by 5 tribes of indigenous Mayan Indians concerned about soil degradation, contamination, and erosion. In the 20 years since organic certification, these farmers have accomplished much for their people. They have built a hospital, a school, and a state-of-the-art milling facility to process their coffees. They created a women's center and formed a lending institution to help their entrepreneurs start up. They've stemmed the flow of their young people migrating from their small towns to the bigger cities looking for employment. The members of this co-op earn three times what other coffee farmers earn.

Alex's Low Acid Organic Whole Bean Decaf Coffee is everything good coffee should be: rich, balanced, bright but not acidic, nutty and aromatic, as well as socially and environmentally conscious.

Alex's Low Acid Organic Coffee 4-Bag Variety Pack includes the following items:

* Fresh Ground French Roast (12oz)
* Whole Bean French Roast (12oz)
* Fresh Ground Decaf (12oz)
* Whole Bean Decaf (12oz)

We suggest storing your coffee in an airtight opaque glass, metal, or ceramic container and keeping it in a cool place. Coffee beans can lose moisture in the freezer and pick up flavors from the fridge or freezer.

Do I need to avoid caffeine after bariatric surgery? According to the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS), Caffeine fluids have been shown to be as good as any others for keeping you hydrated. Still, it is a good idea to avoid caffeine for at least the first thirty days after surgery while your stomach is extra sensitive. After that point, you can ask your surgeon or dietitian about resuming caffeine. Remember that caffeine often comes paired with sugary, high-calorie drinks, so be sure you're making wise beverage choices.
