Coffee benefits your health and protects against many diseases.
Why is there resistance to the idea that coffee benefits your health?
Almost thirty years ago researchers at Harvard University
announced a connection between coffee consumption and cancer.
A few years later they retracted the study and recognized that the
findings were flawed.
However, since that first study and the media frenzy that followed,
coffee has been labeled with the stigma of being unhealthy.
In fact, nothing could be further from the truth.
Coffee can help in the prevention and treatment of diseases and illnesses as varied as Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, liver disease, skin cancer, Parkinsons's disease and more.
Consider this news item...
Coffee Health Risks: For the moderate drinker, coffee is safe says Harvard Women’s Health Watch.
Despite 20 years of reassuring research, many people still avoid caffeinated coffee because they worry about its health effects. However, current research reveals that in moderation—a few cups a day—coffee is a safe beverage that may even offer some health benefits. The September issue of Harvard Women's Health Watch weighs the pros and cons of this popular beverage and eases the concerns of moderate coffee drinkers.
The latest research has not only confirmed that moderate coffee consumption doesn't cause harm, it's also uncovered possible benefits. Coffee may reduce the risk of developing gallstones, discourage the development of colon cancer, improve cognitive function, reduce the risk of liver damage in people at high risk for liver disease, and reduce the risk of Parkinson's disease. Coffee has also been shown to improve endurance performance in long-duration physical activities.

And they say there are no coffee benefits when it comes to health?
There is a great deal of research that shows drinking a few cups of coffee a day can be good for you. It not only protects you against a variety of serious diseases, but can also bring a lot of pleasure into your life.
Browse through the various pages below. You'll be amazed by the number of ways in which coffee can benefit your health and protect you against serious illness.---------------------------------------------------------

alright! that helped me cut a lot of time to explain why they
say its unhealthy and why it can benefit you and the mythbusting
of it can cause serious cancer. EAT THAT!!!!
ok, next i'll just tell you a smaller things about them coffees....
firstly, drinking it wont make you wake up.
it really wont. The reason you feel fresh and all is probably
because the caffeine in the coffee.
It'll make your blood pump faster, increase awareness,
make you more.... uhh.... i donno the word. something like
so you can take more damage or something like that, and
they taste good.
But of course, everything is a double-edged sword.
They have the good and the bad. In this case (coffee case!)
its an extremely sharp sword.
Very good benefits and also very bad side effects.
Well one thing for you to know, is that the side effects
only happen if you drink like say 4-8 cups a day?
learn to control yourself and drink one a day.
Ok. i wont hide the bad stuff so i'll show you.
Here!

Coffee's negative health effects are mostly due to its caffeine content. Research suggests that drinking caffeinated coffee can cause a temporary increase in the stiffening of arterial walls. Excess coffee consumption may lead to a magnesium deficiency or hypomagnesaemia, and may be a risk factor for coronary heart disease. Some studies suggest that it may have a mixed effect on short-term memory, by improving it when the information to be recalled is related to the current train of thought, but making it more difficult to recall unrelated information. About 10% of people with a moderate daily intake (235 mg per day) reported increased depression and anxiety when caffeine was withdrawn, and about 15% of the general population report having stopped caffeine use completely, citing concern about health and unpleasant side effects. Nevertheless, the mainstream view of medical experts is that drinking three 8-ounce (236 ml) cups of coffee per day (considered average or moderate consumption) does not have significant health risks for adults.
American scientist Yaser Dorri has suggested that the smell of coffee can restore appetite and refresh olfactory receptors. He suggests that people can regain their appetite after cooking by smelling coffee beans, and that this method might also be used for research animals.
