Is Coffee Good or Bad to our Health?

I love drinking coffee, and I cannot complete my day without drinking a cup or two. Usually I drink coffee two times a day, morning and at night because its too cold in my place and I need something to heat me up. Coffee also helps me to stay awake, especially in the morning, because I am a very heavy-eyed student. And at night, I need to do my assignments, and I easily get sleepy sometimes that's why I drink coffee at night to ensure that I will not fall asleep while doing my assignments. I don;t know if coffee is good or bad to our health. So what do you think?

Maybe you should drink less coffee now,for drinking coffee was just to relieve yourself and have some rest.

In very small dosage, like the one with the appropriate cup for coffee it's very healthy and even helps in the diet, because it burns the fat. Also helps the stomach digestion after the meals.

They say coffee is good to health because it contains anti oxidant but always remember that too much is very bad. I love drinking coffee too and I think I take 2-3 cups of coffee a day( I can't help because of the vendo we have in the office is free ). But the effect of coffee for me is rather different. I really feel sleepy when drinking coffee.

I also have friends that feel sleepy when they drink coffee. But, coffee contains caffeine, right? And I think caffeine is something that can make you stay awake... hmmm.. correct me if I am wrong.

I do not drink a coffee, because I do not like It. In my life I have drink only few cups soluble coffee. I better prefer tea or juice. Many people believe that coffee is bad. I do not like a coffee, but yes It is healthy. People who drink about a two or three cups a day suffering less with heart problems about 25% Take care, Have a nice day!

Well, it is not good in the way that it has any vitamins or stuff like that in it, but it is supposed to increase your metabolism, which many people think is a good thing, since it might make you skinnier, haha!

I think anything excess is not good. So coffee too much is bad for health. But I drink 2-3 cups of coffee everyday. But again after drinking a cup of coffee it feels refreshed and gives extra energy to do the tasks.
