Health effects of coffee
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_effects_of_coffee
The health effects of coffee have been studied to determine how coffee drinking affects humans. Coffee contains several compounds which are known to affect human body chemistry. The coffee bean itself contains chemicals which are mild psychotropics for humans as a defense mechanism of the Coffee plant. These chemicals are toxic in large doses, or even in their normal amount when consumed by many creatures which may otherwise have threatened the beans in the wild. The primary psychoactive chemical in coffee is caffeine, which acts as a stimulant.
Recent research has uncovered additional stimulating effects of coffee which are not related to its caffeine content. Coffee contains a currently unknown chemical agent which stimulates the production of cortisone and adrenaline, two stimulating hormones.
A May 2012 study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that coffee drinkers "who drank at least two or three cups a day were about 10 percent or 15 percent less likely to die for any reason during the 13 years of the study."

^^ Well there's an entire section on it's risks, but I do not deny its benefits.
I'm just saying that it's better to limit something like coffee, because you become reliant on it

I loathe the taste of coffee, not a tea drinker either. I prefer a glass of warm milk.

I am addicted to coffee and cant wake up without drinking one in the morning.
I drink a cup of filtered coffee in the morning, sometimes a Turkish coffee after the dinner and one more cup of filtered coffee in the night. I also drink a cup of tea in the morning and 1-2 cups before the dinner.

I drink too much. It seems some substances contained in coffee are highly addictive.
Prodigies appear in the oddest of places
