coffee, is it bad for you?

<< < (4/5) > >>

johnpirate:
I ended at the hospital seeing a consultant.I had been getting stomach cramps and feeling generally unwell for ages.I had cameras in allsorts of horrible places.But this consultant said all results were negative and he needed to look at another angle.He asked did I drink a lot of coffee .I said no but I drink a lot of tea.He told me to try decaff tea,and avoid all caffiene. Within a couple of weeks I couldnt believe the difference.I now know I,ve a problem with milk as well .I,ve changed to decaff everything and skimmed milk and I feel great.But the lager still makes me fart. :lol:

Evilgoat:
You become dependant on caffine and thus you go through cold turkey.

Caffine can actually do good in moderation but large ammounts can cause Arrhythmias/Palpitations which have thier associated risks.

--- Quote from: "beast5680" ---On a whim i decided to stop drinking coffee to see if i sleep better :?  as i drink sometimes 10+cups a day i spend most of the day like this :shock:  which doesnt help when i,m trying to sleep
so..i stop drinking and go through what i can only describe as the same symptoms as someone coming off drugs :shock: , felt sick , bad headache and i mean a real throbber, and threw up :shock:  but now i seem to be fine :?

anyone else had this or is it just me?

not touched a cup of coffee for 3 days now cant say i,ve slept better yet though :?
--- End quote ---


Drink strong tea in the morning and black coffee through the day at work. Have no problem sleeping, the larger and the whiskey see to that! :wink:

Cheers

strapping young lad:
dont know if any of you were aware but i lost a ton of weight last year and the first thing i had to cut down was coffee, initial withdrawals ended but my god did i feel good afterwards!

shaun and co:
i had to cut out coffee and red bull recently as i ended up in hospital on a machine that went beep! admittidly at that point i was doing 20-30 cups of coffee and about a third of a case of red bull a day. When i stopped i felt like id died untill i was put on ginseng. now i have ginseng tablets to provide a baseline and ginseng drinks for that extra 'boost'. better for you apparently but some interesting side effects :twisted: !

still cant resist a vodka red bull on a night out though!
