Too Much Coffee

There was a BBC story today about how good coffee is for you

This is good news I'll make myself a double ristretto to celebrate right away... Cheers!

(brainwashed by so many 'studies' that he refuses to give his two pretty little daughters any coffee though... )

Call me a cynic, but I've seen a lot of those scientific quotations but its quite hard to accept most of them when you realise its all industry funded. I'd be interested to know who Dr Trombetti is...

I'm not anti coffee, but even though coffee is the most researched foodstuff in the world, I think we rarely get an honest picture.

Anyway, who said it had to be healthy to be utterly delicious?

Brilliant news . Although if its was thought to be so bad before, why hasn't the UK government been taxing the living daylights out of us for it, like they do for ciggies and petrol Not that I want to give them any excuse to start, just seems a bit wierd to me.

Oh I totally agree... I doubt it's objective

I'd love to work at a university that has an "Institute for Coffee Studies".

Gotta wonder where they get their funding from as well.

Its amazing when you read about who is in charge, and sitting on the boards of most of the big coffee "regulatory bodies" that help put together sites like this....

It would appear coffee also gives you great legs:

Yeah, it's the same sort of idea that makes people buy topical yohimbe preparations (where legal or otherwise available ).

Caffeine is supposed to enhance lipolysis, but I'm not sure about topical application
