Coffe originated in Etheopia where the roasted crushed beans were rolled with fat and carried over long distances as coffee balls by warriors. While there is disagreement about the circumstance of its transport, it was being farmed in Yemen as early as 600 ACE.

Talking Re: Coffee

"Turkish coffee was made of a Berry of the same name, as Black as Soot, and of a Strong Scent but not Aromatical; which they take, beaten into Powder, in Water as Hot as they can Drink it; and they take it, and sit at it in their Coffee Houses, which are like our Taverns. The Drink comforteth the Brain and Heart and helpeth Digestion." - Francis Bacon

Re: Coffee

I remember reading somewhere or possibly I saw a feature about it on the tube, that coffee is loaded with antioxidants also. Can't be all bad, I've been drinking it for over 60 years, at least 6 to 8 cups a day and I'm still kicking. That reminds me, I've got a fresh pot brewing and I'm ready for another cup.........good to the last drop............................Infy

I don't drink coffee from anywhere but Starbucks and this local joint that sells absolutely amazing coffee. ::drools::
I love coffee, but don't get to drink it that often (since I don't have time before school to get some), and I don't drink it at night (since I fancy sleeping, and hate decaff).

As for coffee and its health benefits, I heard recently that it has shown to decrease the risk of cancer in initial testing.
So drink to your health. Here's to delicious anti-carcinogenic beverages.

coffee bean contains 1% caffein combined with acids .

caffine is a stimulant and extremely reactive to uric acid

so go now and grab a cup of coffee

also any idea how these happen ??
Some of these I've claims never heard of, such as coffee acting on our muscles makes us less tired or of "fatigue toxins." Could you supply some links to back these up?

Caffeine helps to stimulate alertness by blocking adenosine receptors in the brain and also helps to increase energy by causing the release of extra fatty acids into blood (for immediate energy) and thermogenesis (extra body heat). There are other effects, but those are the ones I'm familiar with.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caffeine.

BTW, I do enjoy coffee very much. It's one of life's sweet sins.

Arrow Re: Coffee

Drinking coffee makes you pee & poo more than if you didn't drink it. In excess this may lead to dehydration. All things in moderation.

Re: Coffee

Coffee to me is linked to intellectual discussions. I pleasantly remember the time when I was a student in DU, we used to spend hours in the Coffee House that served South Indian Coffee also known as Filter coffee.

I also have a fond memory of drinking coffee, while on a trip to Germany, it was my first experience with Cappuccino, but i really missed the quantity, it was so little.

Re: Coffee

I used to consume large quantities, 4 or 5 pots, a day and then I quit smoking. Within weeks my daily craving for coffee disappeared. Now I fix 1 cup of cuban coffee, an expresso preparation, in the morning and that is all I usually have anymore. I do find that I am still mostly immune to the effects of caffeine from all of the years I drank huge quantities.

I too have little problem with sleeping or nervousness during my waking hours so often reported from over comsumption of coffee products. To this day, I can still drink a pot of coffee and shortly thereafter, lay down and fall promptly to sleep. Waking up several times a night to relieve my bladder is however, another question entirely. During the course of a nights sleep, I usually find myself doing this at least two or three times............................Infy
