Have any of you read any of the new studies that show that coffee is actually GOOD for you? I have been reading the studies this morning and was amazed, and happy because I love coffee.
They have found that it reduces the risk of getting diabetes type two, parkinson's disease, heart disease, some cancers and overall people who drink coffee live longer. Coffee delivers probably the most powerful antioxidant that there is.
Okay, anyone have thoughts on this?

As someone who suffers from the occasional migraine as well as more frequent sinus headaches, I appreciate a good cup of coffee. Coffee (as well as caffeinated colas) dialate the blood vessels. If you feel a migraine coming on, drink a soda or have a cup of coffee. Helps to mitigate the effects.

Ad reducing your chance of Alzheimer’s disease to the list of benefits of coffee.
Although we are reading of all the many benefits of coffee these days, remember it does increase blood pressure and does speeds up your heart.
My brother when he would drink coffee ,if he was active afterwards he would be fine, but if he would sit around afterwards he would get a migraine headache.
I think that is because you’re revving up your system and your metabolism but doing nothing with all that energy from a faster beating heart.
Personally I have a rule with coffee, if I drink it, I work out afterwards.
I also think coffee mentality is part of what is wrong with our diet today, meaning that as Americans, we eat of very low energy disease inducing diet, and we rely on caffeine products to give us the energy that we need to work etc, when we should be getting from a good diet.
I'm not sure that is a good idea to drink everyday also, unless you want to become addited to it.
I'm still on the fence a bit on how I feel about coffee but I think you would be safe in drinking in moderation along with a healthy diet and exercise.

Amazing, isn't it, something they always told us was bad for us. Hot coffee is alson good for an ashma attack, and helps kids with attention deficits.

I have heard several of these, but I have been told for certain stomach and colon problems, it isn't advisable to drink coffee.
I'm glad they have found some medicinal purposes!

It isn't wrong, coffee is good for most people because of it's antioxidant properties.
Nobody said it was good for diabetics or child bearing women,
or anyone it's not good for.
And as with everything else, everything in moderation.

It depends on what blood type you are. There is a doctor who did years of study and I think his son took over the study but the book claims that all things are not good for all people nor all what is considered bad is bad for all people.
Some people coffee is actually good for.
The book 'Eat Right For Your Blood Type' says...
O blood type... coffee is NOT good for you.
A... it IS very good for you.
B...it is NEUTRAL meaning neither harmful or having good value for B.
AB it IS good for you.
