I've been drinking three to four 16oz cups a day for 45 years and my health is fine. I'm older than dirt and I'm not going to stop drinking coffee until I'm under the dirt.
Some people that I know just can't drink coffee. The caffeine makes them jittery and they start bouncing off the walls.
They never seem to make up their mind whether coffee is good for you or not. This article has the goods and a few bad things. I think coffee in moderation is actually good for you and so do most Doctors.
Drinking coffee - pros and cons from a medical perspective ...
The latest studies show 2-3 cups of coffee can be good for you IF you have no serious medical conditions. If your suffer from acid reflux it is two much acid, If you have a heart condition or suffer from anxiety, the caffiene can be bad. So what it really comes down to is if you do not feel any adverse reaction to it, then go ahead and have a couple of cups during the day.
Doctors generally recommend that people should drink no more than six cups (or four mugs) of coffee in a day. Those with such health problems as heart or kidney disease or high blood pressure should have less than that. And pregnant women or those who breast-feed their babies should have no more than one cup a day.
I do not like coffee. It makes my mind strange. I do get a relatively short kick from it. I think it is good only for women and business man. Other people should avoid it. At least I do. I prefer citrus beverages.
