You know what moobs are, right?
Man boobs. Apparently alot of men are getting them.
Without paying for them, I mean. Researchers are trying to figure out what is going on quicker than Playtex can come out with a camoflauge print 60 Almost a B cup man bra. Sports team logo optional.
Phyto-estrogens are the culprit. I wrote a long sermon on the evils of soy on Simply Home Remedies a week or so ago. So why am I talkign about moobs on Kettle adn Cup?
Apparently one of the big sources of phytoestrogens besides soy is…instant coffee! Researchers found that instant coffee (hereafter referred to in this post as swill) has 1833 micrograms per 100 grams of swill.
If some of you ladies think that this is a great reason to give up the whole bean creations for some swill in the hopes of adding a little up top..forget it. The phyto-estrogens don’t work that way but they do increase the instances of breast cancer.
Just one more reason to lose the instant coffee.

So, you are telling me that it is healthy to grind my beans…:::shaking head::::::: you’ve gone over to the dark side, extolling the healthy aspects of drinking my addiction…….
Nope Ginger..I would never do that..but it will keep your guys from moob-osity.
Coffee? Healthy? Nah.
Ohhhhhh! Well, thank goodness the only one in the family who drinks instant coffee is my nearly 99-year-old grandmother.
LOL! Vee..I think she is o.k.!
Hahah. You crack me up. I read Moobs - “what? did she mean to type moods?” LOL Interesting. I passed the info on to my Mom, they have taken to drinking soy milk and yep, Dad is developing. . . .
