Coffee, chocolate, wine -- all the things they kept telling us are bad for us, turn out that they are actually good for us.

Everything in moderation, of course.

More study will probably turn up subgroups of people helped by such things. My sainted aunt, an avid coffee drinker all her life, perished not too long ago with severe Alzheimer’s dementia.

My father died of Alzheimer’s Disease. He drank 5-6 cups of coffee a day.

My 100 (yes, 100) year old grandmother just passed her driver’s exam.

She gets up in the middle of the night, brews a cup of coffee and goes back to bed.

MMMM. Coffee.

My m-i-l, whose faith prohibited the use of caffiene, has early late stage Alzheimers. She is in a secure nursing home (heartbreakingly, she wanders and wants to go ‘home’). She is in a monitored unit (and had to be ‘braceleted’ when she was hospitlized months ago for another health issue).

Her sister, same religious constraints, also had Alzheimers (she has passed away). I think genetics figures into this more than lifestyle choices.

I can’t wait until they announce that a daily dose of cigarettes, beer and unprotected sex with everything alive will make you immortal.

But the health nazis will soon make you pay additional taxes for sodas, etc.

That's good, I say as I reach a shakey hand towards my coffee/coco/cream slurry.
