Organic Coffee Beans from Ecologically Grown Farms

In the mountainous regions of Mexico, there's a family farm - Finca Irlanda - that has maintained its original forest appearance for over a thousand years. The coffee grown there has no strong bitterness, but instead offers a smooth and rich aroma. All coffee trees on this farm are grown through composting and using shade trees, following natural ecological cycles, completely free of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, creating an ecologically balanced and healthy growing environment. Due to its terrain and geology, it has rich volcanic soil, making it the perfect environment for coffee growth. Café Altura not only highly values coffee grown using these original methods, but also because of shared philosophy, has consistently insisted on purchasing coffee beans from their farm to ensure stable, high-quality products.

Using Food Chains to Combat Pests - Insisting on No Pesticides

Instead of using pesticides, they use the principles of the food chain to prevent pests from eating coffee beans. For Café Altura's organic coffee, to prevent a pest called Broca, they must cultivate a type of wasp to suppress the pest, successfully solving the pest and disease problems for organic coffee beans. Therefore, the grown coffee beans are also relatively complete and beautiful!

Organic Coffee Beans - Natural Therapy Selection Criteria

The caffeine and palmitic acid in organic coffee beans are key components in coffee enemas (Note 1) of the Gerson Therapy, not only promoting bile secretion but also significantly increasing GST enzymes (Note 2) in the liver. Café Altura's Regular Roast allows coffee beans to retain more caffeine and palmitic acid, and many people in Taiwan also use it for coffee enema purposes. If organic coffee is over-roasted or poorly roasted, the therapeutic effects are significantly reduced.

Note 1: Dr. Max Gerson is known as the father of natural therapy, the originator of fruit and vegetable energy smoothies and coffee enema therapy. For more information - Gerson Institute official website.

Note 2: GST (Glutathione S-Transference) is a metabolic enzyme whose main function is to participate in cellular defense systems.
