what is coffee?


Sometimes I feel like a bad person because I drink so much coffee. Then I feel really proud because at least I drink it black. Then I feel kind of ashamed because the only reason I started drinking it black is because my grandma used to make fun of me for asking for cream and sugar. Then I feel a little homogay because I like hazlenut coffee. Then I feel really really good cause coffee is the closest I can get to taking drugs at work.

Then I feel like I'm smart because coffee prevents dimentia. Weeee!

A team of Swedish and Danish researchers tracked coffee consumption among 1,409 middle-age men and women for an average of 21 years. During that time, 61 participants developed dementia and 48 Alzheimer's disease.

After controlling for numerous socio-economic and health factors, the scientists found that the people who had reported drinking three to five cups of coffee daily were 65 percent less likely to have developed dementia, compared with those who drank two or fewer cups . Those who drank more than five cups a day also were at reduced risk of dementia, but there were not enough people in that group to draw statistically significant conclusions.
