Is it Healthy to eat coffee grounds?

Question

I heard recently that someone I know is eating coffee grounds. I just think that is too weird to be a healthy practice.

Answer 1

Sounds like pica, a craving for nonfood items, usually related to vitamin or mineral deficiency, sometimes in connection with pregnancy.

Answer 2

Eat nourishing food with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables being part of it. Chew each morsel at least 32 times. This will activate signal to the brain as soon as u have had enough. Besides this change in eating style, take regular light exercises and brisk walks every day. U will be able to gain/shed all extra weight gracefully and in a reasonable time span. No food or drink in between the food and not more than three meals a day, unless u r diabetic.

Answer 3

it sounds pretty gross
i don't know how healthy or not it is
I prefer to eat a variety of different beans tho......like chick peas, or green peas, or kidney beans, navy beans, black-eyed peas, refried beans.
there's so many to choose from
