I love coffee. I think I am addicted to it. I cannot go through the entire day without a cup of coffee. Some say the coffee is not good for your health. Is this true?

I'm addicted to coffee too. It is cold in our place that's why I can't help but drink coffee almost everytime I feel cold. I like the aroma. I know it's not good for our health, that's why I'm trying to drink lots of water after coffee to flush the caffeine that causes high blood pressusre and other ingredients that is dangerous to our health.

I am not a coffee drinker,never have been. I prefer to have a soda in the morning instead, that is how I get my morning caffeine! I've heard that coffee can have some positives for a person's health, but I think it is like most things--- all in moderation.

As for me, I don't really drink coffee though.. I seldom do so because I have palpitations.. I always experience that whenever I drink coffee, my tolerance to that drink is very low though, even if I love the smell and I like to drink it, I just seldom do because what I have learned from that is because it causes vasocontriction, in short, it constricts your blood vessels, that is why i experience palpitation and shortness of breathing. Anyway, as what I have learned, yes, it's not good for your health, but when there is too much intake of coffee, i don't think that's any good though :) just my 2 cents..

I am mad after coffee. I want to felicitate the person who has invented coffee. Some times I feel I am born only to drink coffee. But coffee in large quantity is not good.Two or three cups are ok, I feel so.

I love coffee and drink 3 or 4 cups a day. Studies have shown that coffee drinkers who drank 2 or more cups per day are less likely to develop gallstones, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, heart disease, cirrhosis of the liver, gout, and dental decay. It also contains antioxidants which protect us against cancer. But excessive coffe drinking (over 4 cups a day) can cause anxiety, irritability, insomnia and increases the risk of stillbirth during pregnancy. So enjoy your coffee but don't get carried away!

Very big yes. I do love coffee. I think everything that is taken in with excess amount is bad. Moderate drinking of coffee is good. I take 1 cup a day whenever i crave for it. But I also try cleansing right after like drinking alot of water. I do not know if coffee is not healthy but according to research there are coffee ingredients that are good and bad for our health. God bless!
