Le
Café - Sa Composition, Sa Consommation, Ses Incidences
sur la Santé
Debry, G.
Nancy: Centre de Nutrition Humaine, 1987
(Monographie 1)
Bien des propriétés physiologiques
favorables ou défavorables à la santé
ont été attribuées au café. Certaines
sont exactes, d'autres sont erronées. Ces erreurs proviennent
de deux causes: la tradition et l'interprétation des
résultats expérimentaux. Les publications concernant
le café et la santé se comptent par plusieurs
milliers. Cette monographie a été rédigée
en tenant compte d'un grand nombre d'entre elles et, autant
que possible, de celles qui sont les plus importantes et les
plus significatives. L'auteur espère que cette synthèse
permettra au lecteur de clarifier ses opinions à propos
des relations entre le café et la santé et de
connaître l'utilisation qu'il peut faire de cette boisson,
compte tenu de sa sensibilité personnelle. Sommaire:
Histoire du café; Composition; Natures et modes de
préparation du café; La caféine; La consommation
du café; Les effets physiologiques du café;
Les effets sur la reproduction; Les effets génotoxiques,
mutagène et carcinogène du café.

Coffee
Quality
A 100 Pages Critique on How to Obtain a Satisfactory Tasting
Cup of Coffee
Sivetz, M.
Corvallis, Oregon, US: Sivetz Coffee, Inc., 1987
The booklet contains a critique on causes of
decline of coffee quality in the USA. Besides technical, commercial,
and historical aspects of coffee growth and use, it discusses
the politics and unsavory commercialization. The author blames
the major roasters who have developed a low priced (and of
course low quality) product from the lower grades of Arabica
coffees; and since about 1960, have introduced a change in
their branded blends to "bad-tasting" Robusta coffees.
He thinks that by educating himself, the consumer will not
buy these inferior products, but will strive to buy coffees
that are properly identified and give value.
