Coffee is a drug, you shouldn't have it more than once per month. | |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80831999 Bad impact on aquatic life (micoralgae, bivalves, sponges, fishes etc)... Also vacation areas attracting tourists show much higher caffeine in water during summer/tourist season. Just some examples: - endemic catfish from south America : deformation of skeleton - impact on corals: makes coral bleaching worse [link to news.mongabay.com (secure)] Say no one picked the beans. They'd still drop, decompose and release caffeine into the water. So what's the plan... Burn everything. Here's an idea, just stop propagating the propaganda. |

I have a general rule for drugs (alcohol included) and it's to have them spaced out. Ideally, it should be a "few times per year" type of deal, if not less. Quoting: ItWontBeMe I always shake my head at "habitual coffee drinkers." If you're a heavy coffee drinker, try abstaining from it for at least a couple of months, your first sip after that long duration will feel like you're on shrooms. I agree with you. I drink extremely large amounts of coffee and wish I didn't. There are times when my work is hard, or maybe I'm not tough. I don't know. There are days when I feel "How am I going to get through the next 4 hours of this?" On those days, large amounts of coffee, it makes it easier. I'm too poor to quit the coffee. Coffee is strange because it contains anti-oxidants, but it also has a lot of bad stuff in it too. Coffee itself doesn't mutate your genetics, but it does make other mutagens more powerful. There are a lot of pro-coffee studies with bias. I don't want to use drugs, at least not all the time. It's also getting to the point it damages my relationships because I'm still all caffeinated after work and then I call up friends and I'm all amped up on coffee and I'm already really high energy and the coffee makes me unbearable apparently. My personal observation of, drinking a pot of coffee , "to help get you through the day" will actually make you slow. I know because I ran the experiment while working as a dishwasher in a fast-paced restaurant. If you're looking for energy, suggest drinking beet juice with a dollop of Vitamin B12. You can find a bottle rather cheap at most any feed store, something called, Rooster Booster. It's a chicken supplement for sleepy roosters. A problem with drinking daily lots of coffee, is when you get older, you may develop a sensitivity to the caffeine, and will need to take some L-Theanine, to counter the worrisome effects felt within your heart.
