It's good for you!!
Coffee found to be high in health-giving antioxidants
By Steve Connor, Science Editor
Published: 29 August 2005
Coffee might soon be considered a health drink following a study showing it is a surprisingly rich source of anti-cancer agents.
A study has found that coffee contributes more antioxidants - which have been linked with fighting heart disease and cancer - to the diet than cranberries, apples or tomatoes.

Coffee contains the stimulant drug caffeine which alters the speed at which the nervous system works. Like any drug, it's good or bad depending upon how much is used, where and why. If you need to stay awake on a long motorway drive it's good, but if you need to organise something carefully it can be bad because it makes you impulsive and scatty and, often, aggressive. The more coffee a nation consumes per head the higher the rate of aggression and assualt. Ask a Columbian!

coffe is very bad for you. First, it ages the skin. Second it has about 159 drugs in it.....great, for one cup at the weekend, like the Europeans do, as a treat, but in the u.k. people are so ignorant, and drink coffe 'csuse it is smart, cool, or just because they think they are somewhere or somebody else when they drink the horridouse stuff. Mind you. one irish after a good meal, great....depends on the whisky 'tho. Coffee, apart from nicotine, alchohol, is the third worst drug. ....read on it.

Coffee like most anything you can put into the human body is good in moderation.

Well, coffee can actually be healthy in some cases. One, or two cups a day, that is, not 15. ;) And it's actually brilliant to wash down painkillers with! If it's not decaf, that is... The cafein is a natural painkiller and works wonders if mixed with paracetamol. ;)

Bad for you. Everything that people enjoy is bad for them. I love coffee - and there's nothing that's going to stop me drinking it...
