"Coffee can be good for you, experts say"

" NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Drinking coffee can help ward off type 2 diabetes and may even help prevent certain cancers, according to panelists discussing the benefits -- and risks -- of the beverage at a scientific meeting.

"We're coming from a situation where coffee had a very negative health image," Dr. Rob van Dam of the Harvard School of Public Health, who has conducted studies on coffee consumption and diabetes, told Reuters Health. Nevertheless, he added, "it's not like we're promoting coffee as the new health food and asking people who don't like coffee to drink coffee for their health."

Van Dam participated in a "controversy session" on coffee at the Experimental Biology 2007 meeting underway in Washington, D.C. "

there are many experiments run to assess the effects of coffee..

but it is hard to seperate the effects of just coffee from the everything else in any given person's life even in the most controlled experiments..that's why there are so many contradicting results..

the best thing to do is just take it in moderation..obviously, being addicted to the caffeine in coffee is not good for you..but i'm sure a cup here or there cant hurt any more than anything else

Like you say xhoneyx, moderation is best. One of my slaves starts out each day with 2 pots, not 2 cups! 
Then he is all wound up and ready to go!  Wheeeee!!

Chlorogenic acid is an antioxidant polyphenol in coffee that reduces the release of glucose in the bloodstream in different ways. One of it's effects is that it reduces the glucose-peak in your blood after meals. Caffeine has an opposite effect, so to have the optimum benefit, you should preferably drink decaf.

There are a few interesting "Coffee and health"  sites that list the benefits of coffee, though their information might be biased, as they are sponsored by the coffee trade.

Be well!

OOO! Does this mean I can justify my drinking 3 pots a day to my girlfriend now? :P She says I need decaf, but that stuff is nastey.

I always wondered why my morning blood sugar would go down after having a few cups of coffee- I only use splenda and skim milk in my coffee.

I always wondered wehy I had to pinch a loaf after coffees.

*waving* coffee addict here

I have a pot of Italian in the morning because that stuff makes you vrooooooooooom - and then when I get home from work I have Kenyan

And when I am feeling ultra flush I have a pot of Jamaican Blue Mountain. Love the stuff.

Sorry, off topic - but anything that says coffee is good gets a thumbs up from me.

Coffee is best in latte form, with amaretto syrup.




mistoferin -> RE: "Coffee can be good for you, experts say" (5/21/2007 7:52:43 PM)
