My boss passed by my desk and asked me if I was having coffee. I said yes and she was like the aroma is soo strong while making a face. It got me wondering if having strong coffee is bad for my health considering that it had no cream or sugar.

I've had coffee with a very strong aroma. This coffee didn't taste that strong. I think it might be a problem if you drank large quantities of strong coffee, but otherwise, enjoy your coffee, any way that you like it.

@Morleyhunt yes too large quantities could be bad, not moderate ones.

Hello @aureliah you can't have your stomach empty if you drink coffee at least that's my opinion on that.

I should think it is only unhealthy if you drink too much of it.

Once in a while it is okay to have a strong coffee,but not always. It is bad for the heart.

I think within limits, strong coffee is not bad. However, if you take it everyday and perhaps more than once, it could be detrimental to your health. One side effect which I could imagine would be acidity which if increased beyond limit can cause bloating or other gastric problems.

Thats worrying because I take it daily.

No, it's not bad for your health, and it's even better if you do not add sugar or cream.

@aureliah Cream add fat, that is never good, refined sugar is very bad for our health.

`I've heard various opinions about coffee in general not being good for you, but it was generally about the caffeine, not about how strong it was.

I also think the caffeine part is which is a problem but maybe too much of it.
