Healthy coffee for call center agents

MANILA, Philippines - Night life has ceased to remain a night for gigs and other forms of enjoyment. Since business processes outsourcing (BPO) has become a fixture in the Philippine landscape, night life has taken on a different turn. It has become synonymous to work; fortunately, it lent dignity to night work, where before, night work used to be limited to “work” of GROs and the so-called damsels of the night.

Whereas gigs and booze are nearly synonymous, BPO life has become nearly synonymous with coffee. Coffee has become the additive that perks up the human engine called the brain. Working 8 to 5, 9 to 6 or 10 to 7, from evening to morning, goes against the human body’s biorhythm and normal work processes. Adrenaline secretion slows down as the day wears on and as sleepiness creeps through.

It is largely adrenaline that sharpens the senses and makes the body active. This is where coffee comes in, but not just any coffee. Ordinary coffee is all caffeine which is a stimulant and, according to studies, an “unknown chemical agent” which induces the production of two stimulating hormones: adrenaline and cortisone.

Studies abound about the effects of coffee on health. The results vary but they veer more toward benefits, given moderation in drinking and depending on the production process and quality of the coffee. As a rule of thumb, it is best to always lean on the side of moderation. 

But in a BPO or call center setting, due to the odd working hours and the rigors and stresses of the job, agents normally drink coffee excessively, especially while they are at work. This is to maintain their “fully awake, fully alert” status while in their workplace.

Perhaps only a minority heed the caution to drink in moderation, triggering a health concern. What is potentially a healthy, or at the very least, harmless, habit, may defeat the claimed coffee health benefits.

The situation in the BPO scenario is a potential cause for worry since, while call center agents drink coffee for productivity, overdoing so may usher in the opposite result, thus threatening organizational productivity, with employees taking the toll of excessive drinking of coffee that may be of substandard quality and/or coffee that might have undergone production processes that drown out the potential health benefits of coffee drinking.

Too much of anything is bad or potentially bad, thus, too much of anything of bad quality is bad. There is thus a recourse: “healthy coffee.”

PIOIR Coffee of Gano iTouch is healthy coffee. Containing organic Ganoderma lingzhi and grown in the world’s largest plantation, it is the answer to the BPO dilemma where coffee intake and productivity issues are concerned.

Produced under ISO 9001, 2000 conditions, complete with Halal Certificate and Food and Drugs Administration approval, PIOIR Coffee is not only safe to drink in large servings, it is also good to drink because of its Ganoderma ingredient.

Why healthy? It promotes mental alertness. Thus, it’s a double-valued alertness booster. Not only do caffeine and the adrenaline-and-cortisone-boosting properties of any coffee account for the kick every sachet of PIOIR 3-in-1 coffee gives, its potent organic mushroom super brand tagged as Ganoderma by Gano iTouch has herbal health properties that do all these: promotes mental wellness, improves blood circulation, increases energy, and protects the liver and the immune system.
