Coffee
People around the world drink millions of cups of coffee every day. They wake up to a fesh brew to start the day, grab a cup at the office to relect on tasks at hand, even stop at the corner coffee shop to meet with, or make new friends. It has become a staple of life.
Is coffee really good or is it addictive? 
I think both really. Good coffee almost has a sexy taste to it. Not many things can compare to it. Maybe chocolate, but that is another article all together. You love to drink coffee. You love a good cup of steaming hot coffee on a cold morning. Watching the steam come off the coffee as it snows outside is a very relaxing thought.
Is coffee good or bad for you?
Well, it depends on who you ask.
Usually what you will find is scientists are paid by a company that wants to prove a point. Simply put, they pay the scientists.
As in all things, you must drink coffee in moderation. A cup or two each day isn't going to be bad for you. If on the other hand you are drinking a pot every hour, you know that it will have an effect on you. I have known people who drink coffee like this. They drink it from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed. Let's talk about some of the bad things about coffee.
Coffee stains your teeth.
We all know what the color of coffee stained teeth are. It is up there with cigarette smoke stained teeth. You can buy Teeth whitening systems. I would suggest though that instead of trying to whiten your teeth, you cut back a little on the brew.
Bad breath.
Have you ever had a whiff of the breath of someone who is a heavy coffee drinker? It smells horrible.
It raises stress levels.
Too much coffee may raise anxiety levels. Drink too much coffee and you can become stressed out. This should not be news to you. Have you ever seen how much a person shakes after they drink too much coffee?
It can raise the risk of a heart attack.
Science is still somewhat out on this, it shouldn't be much of a surprise. If it elevates the heart and blood pressure, it can not be a good thing for your heart.
Sterility.
Yes, it can effect the little guys swimming in your semen. Coffee can actually lower your sperm count.
I know that may sound too weird to be true, but it is.
Stomach problems.
Drink too much coffee and you could develop stomach problems. The caffeine and acid irrates the lining of the stomach.
Here are some of the benefits of coffee.
It may help prevent prostate cancer.
This is weird but it is true. Coffee contains boron, which is a chemical that helps curb prostate cancer.
It is a good social drink.
People go to the coffee house to chat all the time. A cup of coffee could be a good reason to go out and meet new people. A cup once and while can't hurt. You never know, you might meet a good friend over that cup of Joe.
It helps wash down a meal.
In many cultures it is impolite to start a meal or finish one without having a cup of coffee. No one is certain that coffee actually helps the digestion process, but it sure tastes good after a meal.
As with all things in life, you need to do things in moderation.
If you feel that you are over doing it, you need to cut back on the coffee. I know that coffee might taste good, but in the long run you are doing yourself more harm than good. Just keep in mind that 1 or 2 cups per day isn't going to hurt you.
