Coffee can reduce Alzheimer threat 65 percent.

People who drink 3-5 cups of coffee per day in their 50's lower their risks of Alzheimers by 65 percent in later life. 1409 people were tracked through the course of two decades. It appears that coffee contains anti oxidents which are known to fight the disease. Other studies have shown insignificant benefits to drinking over 5 cups of coffee per day.

One holistic theory is that type A blood type people get needed stomach acid from coffee. They are low on the acid required for proper digestion. Coffee is really helpful for those deficient in potassium. I have no idea if that is true, so really it boils down to the physical negatives versus the positive effect coffee has on the brain.

These are some negatives to drinking coffee. It can affect the stomach and also the acid for those with high stomach acid to begin with. Coffee can have pesticides in the beans. Coffee can cause B vitamin deficiencies, so some advocate supplements.

Too much coffee can wear out adrenal glands and organs, as some studies have shown. So, in the long run, it is a choice you have to make. Do you want your organs to wear out or your brain? Tough choice but Alzheimers is a daunting disability that most people fear greatly.

My doctor says that coffee is just fine in moderation. Apparently from videos below, cats love coffee, drinking it by dipping their paws in it. And people defend coffee with ludicrous, but humorous videos as seen below in the "I like Coffee" video. I laughed out loud at the guy while some won't have the patience for him.

I quit drinking coffee. Sounds like there are some good bennies to drinking it, but then again there are bad bennies too so perhaps I will stay stopped.
