A Father’s Healing Journey: How Raw Green Coffee Gave Us Precious Time
My father was facing a health crisis unlike anything I had ever seen. He was diabetic, and his condition had deteriorated to the point where he had no feeling in his feet. The doctors were discussing amputating his legs, starting with a toe that had turned necrotic due to poor blood flow. It all began with a heart issue, which led to medications that eventually caused diabetes and gangrene. Despite multiple surgeries, antibiotics, and countless treatments, his condition spiraled downward. Things became dire when the geriatric specialist told me my father had only a week to live.
I was devastated. In that moment of despair, I wandered into the hospital cafeteria. There, I met a man named Jeffrey, who was working as a dishwasher and delivering food. Jeffrey not only fed my father but also introduced me to something unexpected—raw green coffee.
At first, it sounded unconventional, especially after having some of the best clinicians work on my father’s case. But I was desperate to try anything that could help. Jeffrey shared his knowledge about green coffee, particularly its chlorogenic acid content, which is known for its health benefits. I decided to incorporate it into my father’s care routine.
During that month, we combined science and faith. The raw green coffee, along with prayers, reading Jeremiah 33:3, and using sound therapy, I stayed by his bedside, tracking his progress —monitoring blood pressure, heart rate, and wound healing daily.
To my amazement, my father’s condition began to improve. His wounds, which had once seemed beyond hope, started to heal. Blood flow restored, tissue regenerated, and his strength returned. While his heart issues and age—he was 86—meant that his time with us was limited, he healed enough for us to share several precious months together before he passed in January 2023.
I believe it was a combination of the green coffee, prayer, and unwavering care that brought about this incredible turnaround. It felt like a miracle, and I was deeply moved to have that extra time with him.
The experience changed my life in more ways than one. After witnessing its benefits firsthand, I started using raw green coffee myself. At 56, I feel healthier than ever—my energy is balanced, my weight is down to nearly what it was in high school, and I have no significant health issues.
This journey taught me that healing often comes from a blend of science and faith. It also opened my eyes to the potential of raw green coffee, not just for managing health conditions but for improving overall well-being. It’s something I’ll always be grateful for—and something I’m passionate about sharing with others.
