New Study: Coffee's Good For You

[Texas Star]

The latest coffee study suggests that you'll live longer if you drink coffee, decaf included.

However, other coffee benefits, inc. limiting liklihood of developing Alzheimer's, applies only to regular coffee.

Too late, I drink black every morning,
I think that was yesterday. I'll do it again yesterday!

I drink lots of coffee, regular, and I serve it in my store....

....uh, I don't remember where I was going with this.....

Coffee had better be good for you. The other way around, and I'm already toast.

I gave up on wimpy coffee a year or so back and now drink just espresso that I make from a serious high pressure Italian machine that I got through Amazon. I go through three or four doppios just to get going in the morning, and then have up to five more in the course of the day. Sometimes I froth milk, sometimes not. I still don't have any trouble going to sleep, but it does help a bit waking me up and seems to help keep me awake if I am of a mind to make that happen.

All those grounds go into the compost bin in the side yard. I have the most hyperactive and over-caffeinated earthworms on the planet. They can reduce a new bucket of orange and banana peels to dirt in a day and a half. I would not want to lose my balance and fall in there while trying to dump the new garden and kitchen waste.

I drink lots and I'm not supposed to. Someone tell me that it regenerates your liver and I will quote the SW Firm to get the naysayers off my back. Somebody, anybody, never mind I'll just make it up and say I read it somewhere. That's a reliable source in my family.

I'll drink all sorts of stuff but coffee isn't one of them. Man I love the smell but can't stand the taste.

I love my coffee (drinking some right now). Ever since I started drinking coffee I have become rich, have a ton of guns, the wife still loves me, the grass in the yard is always green and never needs mowing, the birds always sing, their is absolutely no crime in my town, the gas company no longer charges me for fuel, the electric company and cell phone service doesn't charge me - sorry, I lost control gang!

Funny thing about coffee, the darker the roast the less caffeine in the coffee. Stronger taste but less caffeine.

The amount of cash spent every year on "studies" in this world is beyond reasonable. Most of them are done very poorly, or are biased in one or more ways to "prove" someone's point.
You notice we never are given detailed analysis of the study in question, just the conclusions. Only about half the time do we even find out where it was done and who did it. Ever wonder why? Dig this stuff out, and often the whole motivation behind the study becomes obvious.


Even and odd years, coffee is good or bad for you, same thing about eggs, milk, and so much more. Who here really believes that having eggs 2 or 3 times a week is bad for you? The egg yolk has recently been discovered to contain proteins and enzymes that fend off dementia.

I've been drinking strong regular coffee since I was a child. My mama started me! When as a seminary student I worked in the ship yard I noted just how many of the men drank coffee. Some of them were "old." I put two and two together and came up with the answer... drink more coffee! That way I'd live longer! So... I've drank coffee with happy abandon for the last 49 years. It must work... because I'm staying alive! Now... as to what it was I was suppose to be doing later today... I'd better call my wife.

My Grandparents only knew one kind of salad and salad dressing.

Wilted Greens with lots of Bacon Fat Drippings for dressing.

One drank Black coffee, the other with REAL CREAM.

Long Lived TOO!

I have been drinking coffee off and on since i was 7 or 8 years old. Looks like i am going to have to drink more of it.

 

[woodsltc]

Wait a few days.....there will be another report/study to come out telling us "how bad" coffee is for us.

My mother lover "black" coffee and lived to 101, so I'm following her lead.

Coffee's good for you? Who sponsored the study? Juan Valdez?

Sometimes I think I'm the only person in over-caffieneated Seattle that doesn't drink coffee. I don't even like the smell.

I completely agree with your findings. Coffee is very beneficial for health. Some people misunderstood and drink more coffee than actually required. Too much coffee can be dangerous, that's a fact. Studies say that 2 cups of coffee is ideal for health benefits.

I need all the help I can get.

OK now I just spit my black coffee on the computer with that one.

Now I know I know coffee is good for my kidneys as after a cup or two I head to the outhouse several times to empty out.

For me, there is nothing like my mug of plain black coffee every morning. It's brewed from fresh ground beans that I roast myself. Yum. I'm sure it's better for me than lots of other things I could be doing.
