Re: What's so bad about coffee?

[Guest guest]

there is nothing bad about coffee (unless there's something new about it).

And your conclusion below about its " aging " people is interesting, but what

scientific studies is this based on? Coffee (in moderation as with

everything else) seems to be harmless, from what we know at the present

time, and even has been implicated in the PREVENTION of some illnesses, such

as Parkinson's disease.

Search the archives under " coffee " for past posts on the subject.

The caffeine in coffee is known to cause forms of insulin

resistance... which is obviously very deleterious to health. However,

I believe certain compounds in coffee counteract the caffeine... so

I'm not sure if coffee causes insulin resistance. In moderation, there

should be no problem.
