Frankly I do not care even if it is cancer causing. I can't do without coffee for a single day. Without a cup of hot coffee early in the morning, I will be totally lifeless the entire whole day.
i cant type in the mornings without first havin a coffe, then if its a weekend i will have a smoke for inspiration and then begin my creative process.
I drink thick black coffee with a bit of sugar, no milk (shudder), coffee should taste like coffee, milk spoilts the REAL taste!
Taken from the almighty Wikipedia: Scientific studies have examined the relationship between coffee consumption and an array of medical conditions. Most studies are contradictory as to whether coffee has any specific health benefits, and results are similarly conflicting regarding negative effects of coffee consumption. Coffee appears to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, heart disease, diabetes mellitus type 2, cirrhosis of the liver, and gout. Some health effects are due to the caffeine content of coffee, as the benefits are only observed in those who drink caffeinated coffee, while others appear to be due to other components. For example, the antioxidants in coffee prevent free radicals from causing cell damage. Coffee's negative health effects are mostly due to its caffeine content. Research suggests that drinking caffeinated coffee can cause a temporary increase in the stiffening of arterial walls. Excess coffee consumption may lead to a magnesium deficiency or hypomagnesaemia, and may be a risk factor for coronary heart disease. Some studies suggest that it may have a mixed effect on short-term memory, by improving it when the information to be recalled is related to the current train of thought, but making it more difficult to recall unrelated information. Nevertheless, the mainstream view of medical experts is that drinking three 8-ounce (236 ml) cups of coffee per day (considered average or moderate consumption) does not have significant health risks for adults.
its useful.. however, too much of anything is bad.. balance everything. if you get addicted, consult an expert i must say..
