Coffee, especially bulletproof and cold brew are all the rage right now. Maybe it’s because we’re busier than ever. Or maybe we’re losing out on sleep as we cram more and more into our every day. Whatever the reason, we’re consuming more caffeinated beverages than ever—from frappes, to yerba mate teas, to brews on nitro, and everything in-between.

Caffeine isn’t a bad thing, per se, (everything in moderation, of course!) but what many consumers fail to realize is that grabbing the first box of coffee grounds from the shelf, or ordering a cup without thinking twice, can actually have more negative effects than positives, especially when it comes to your overall health.

When was the last time you took a sip and thought about the acidity? The pesticides? Whether or not the grounds are organic? When the last time you considered whether or not the beans had collected harmful compounds in the roasting process? Or if the toxins were fully removed?

This isn’t a message to scare you, more to make you aware that what you consume has a direct effect on your body. When you go to grab your next cup o’ Joe, take a second to think about whether you’re making a healthy choice, or a lazy one.

1. Pesticides.

Pesticides can be incredibly harmful for your body, and half the time you might not even know you’re consuming them! To stay safe, opt for an organic brand that specifically notes healthy, natural farming and roasting processes.

Here is an organic brand: Organic Enema Coffee.

And here’s an organic extract you can easily add to any coffee, tea, or other drink: Purity He Shou Wo

2. Acidic properties/chemicals.

Coffee, acidic? That sounds strange, doesn’t it? However, coffee can be acidic, which can be negative on your body. The next time you go to the store, look specifically for a brand that says “acid free” or something along those lines, promising a healthier, cleaner taste.

A great option: Tylers Acid Free Organic Coffee.

3. Fillers/Additives

Research has shown that it’s possible other components from the growing process (like barley, corn, wheat, seeds, even dirt!) could be getting into your cup.

While the likelihood of this killing you is pretty slim, ingesting these things isn’t good. How can you make sure you’re getting the cleanest coffee with the least amount of negative surprises?

Opt for organic, like brand: Equal Exchange.
