If you want to lose weight your in the right
place.
Every day people around the world drink millions
of cups of coffee. It has become a staple of life. We see a
StarBucks on every corner. Is coffee really this good or is it so
addictive? I think it is both really. I think good coffee almost
has a sexy taste to it. It tastes rich and full bodied. Not many
things can compare to it. Maybe chocolate, but that is another
article all together. You love to drink coffee. You love a good
cup of steaming hot Joe on a cold morning. Watching the steam
come off the coffee as it snows outside is a very relaxing
thought.Is coffee good or bad for you? Well, I think it depends
on who you ask.
Usually what you will find is these
scientists are paid by a company that wants to prove a point.
Simply put, they pay the scientists off.
As in all
things, you must drink coffee in moderation. A cup or two each
day isn't going to be bad for you. If on the other hand you are
drinking a pot every hour, you know that it will have an effect
on you. I have known people who drink coffee like this. They
drink it from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed.
This is common in alcoholics. Let's talk about some of the bad
things about coffee.
Coffee stains your teeth.
We all know what the color of coffee stained
teeth are. It is up there with cigarette smoke stained teeth. You
can buy things to whiten your teeth. I would suggest though that
instead of trying to whiten your teeth, you cut back a little on
the brew.
Bad breath.
Have you ever had a whiff of the breath of
someone who is a heavy coffee drinker? It smells horrible. I
would rather smell shit with flies buzzing around it.
It raises stress levels.
Too much coffee can raise anxiety levels. When
this happens, you can become stressed out. This shouldn't be news
to you. Have you ever seen how much a person shakes after they
drink too much coffee?
It can raise the risk of a
heart attack.
While science is still somewhat out on this, it
shouldn't be much of a surprise. If it elevates the heart and
blood pressure, too much of it can't be a good thing.
Sterility.
Yes, it can effect the little guys swimming in
your semen. It can actually lower your sperm count. I know that
may sound too weird to be true, but it is.
Stomach problems.
People who drink too much coffee may have some
stomach problems. The caffeine irrates the lining of the stomach.
Here are some of the benefits
of coffee:
-It prevents prostate cancer.
- This is too
weird, but it is true. Coffee contains boron, which is a chemical
that helps curb prostate cancer.
- It is a good social drink.
You don't drink alcohol? Well, people go to the coffee
house to chat all the time. A cup of coffee could be a good
reason to go out and meet new people. A cup once and while can't
hurt. You never know, you might meet a good friend over that cup
of Joe.
It helps wash down a meal. In many cultures it is
impolite to either start a meal or finish one without having a
cup of coffee. No one is certain that coffee actually helps the
digestion process, but it sure tastes good after a meal.
As with all things in life, you need to
do things in moderation. If you feel that you are over
doing it, you need to cut back on the coffee. I know that coffee
might taste good, but in the long run you are doing yourself more
harm than good. Just keep in mind that one or two cups per day
isn't going to hurt you.
