Coffee GOOD this week!.................

It’s settled science. Get between me and my coffee only if you want to arrange a meeting with your maker.

I don’t want to live a day over 499 million years. Oh, wait...
To: Red Badger
With the amount of caffeine that I drink, I should live to be 1,000 years old.

Where would Europeans have obtained their caffeine prior to the importation of coffee about five hundred years ago?

A former co-worker and I have birthdays only a month apart. We were both raised in similar circumstances. He has never drank beer, wine, liquor or any alcoholic beverages, has never smoked - anything - but he does drink coffee. I am 70 and he is as well, except he looks 50................

Doctors have been railing against coffee for the last few decades and now this very positive study, which I happen to agree with. My Dad always said “If you smoke, drink, and are fat, you need to find a fat Doctor who smokes and drinks.”

I don’t buy one word of this Chinese agit-prop that it is targeting the American public with. They are turning everything completely upside-down and doing it well.
Caffeine is an alkaloid. Just like nicotine. And is just as hazardous and deadly to your long-term health. This fact has lomg been established in Western medicine.
China is all over the internet with bullshit claims about Western foods. Deliberate subversion.
Believe this poison pen crap at your own risk. China knows the West’s weaknesses and frailties, and is exploiting them.

Yep. But as you alluded to, maybe next week a study will come out showing coffee causes dangerous ear wax buildup, or some such thing. In the meantime…

Africa. Coffee is an African plant...............Never mind 🙄 even with my morning lunga of caffeine, my brain was thinking of chocolate coming from the new world and conflating it with coffee.
