The Recognized Nutritional Benefits of Green Coffee Available in First Sweetener-free Beverage

Aurora, CO, June 24, 2014 --(PR.com)-- In early 2012 a well-known television personality popularized Green Coffee for its nutritional benefits, and it has been flying off the shelves ever since. Unfortunately, it has only been available in pill form because of its extremely bitter taste. Now green coffee is available in the world’s first pleasant-tasting beverage made from 100% green coffee beans, with no fillers, additives or sweeteners.

This new beverage, Green CoffeeTea, is produced from coffee beans treated with an all-natural, non-GMO process developed by MycoTechnology, Inc. This proprietary process, MycoSmooth™, utilizes mushrooms to ferment raw coffee beans. The mushrooms selectively consume the bitter components of the beans while leaving the dietary benefits of green coffee intact without imparting the mushroom flavor. The resulting beans produce a beverage, which tastes similar to tea.

According to Alan Hahn, CEO of MycoTechnology, Inc., “Never before has anyone been able to deliver a 100% green coffee in a product as smooth and great-tasting as ours. Two cups of Green CoffeeTea provide the nutritional benefits of green coffee in a form that is easy on the digestive system and does not need any fillers, additives or sweeteners.”

Most notably, Green Coffee is known to regulate blood glucose levels, which minimizes excess energy storage. This can be attributed to the chlorogenic acid found in the unroasted coffee beans. On the other hand when the coffee beans go through the roasting process the chemical components are altered stripping the chlorogenic acid from the beans.

Results from independent testing shows that MycoTechnology’s processed coffee beans have more than ten times the amount of chlorogenic acid than beans that were not treated with the MycoSmooth™ process. The processing also removes the compounds blamed for intestinal distress that often results from green coffee.

The MycoSmooth™ process utilizes the Reishi mushrooms to create Green CoffeeTea. Reishi has been utilized for centuries in eastern medicine for their health benefits. Independent testing shows that the MycoSmooth™ process successfully deposits beta-Glucans from the mushrooms into the beans. These beta-Glucans modulate and boost the immune system using natural biopathways. For these reasons, they are used as controlled pharmaceuticals in some Asian countries as chemotherapy adjuvants. They have also been found to lower blood cholesterol levels.

For companies looking to incorporate Green CoffeeTea into their product line or wish to use Green CoffeeTea as an ingredient, please contact Alan Hahn at alan@mycotechcorp.com. Green CoffeeTea is available from several distributors, which can be found at www.mycotechcorp.com.

The all-natural MycoSmooth™ process was developed to improve the taste of foods and has been particularly successful with coffee and chocolate. Research is continuing with the goal of bringing more products to market in the near future.
