To anyone who says coffee is bad for you. I used to drink coffee like a madman with no limitations and no schedule. I was also an unhealthy person, with a bad diet and sleep habits. At the time, I could say coffee didn't do me much good; only kicking up my anxiety. As soon as I cleaned up my diet, improved my sleep, drank coffee an hour after waking up, and consumed it at a limit, caffeine has been nothing but good for my brain, body, and digestive system. Coffee also has antioxidants that are good for the body. Context matters when it comes to drinking coffee. In a controlled environment, I don't see how it's bad unless you have certain conditions.

I believe moderation is key in everything we do in life, drinking coffee is just one of them. I only drink coffee in the early morning hours. Filling up a cup with coffee and milk at 50-50 portion with one refill, would not touch coffee during the day. I have never had any trouble. I could not find a better way to consume both coffee and milk the same time. We all have our personal preference. You just have to figure out what fits you and stick to the routine.

Try combining half decade and half regular strength when brewing, this should help any symptoms/side effects. You can also adjust varying amounts of caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee, according to your body’s reaction. Try not to drink coffee after 3:00PM. I can drink it much later without experiencing side effects…including insomnia. Yet, my brother cannot tolerate any amount of coffee, so I looked into Green and Black Tea, as well as, other caffeinated options on his behalf. Strangely, I discovered my brother is able to drink Green and Black Tea…yet…I cannot touch Green Tea without experiencing severe side effects…ranging from migraine headaches, nausea/vomiting, and severe joint pain - to name a few. Scientific research has demonstrated coffee to be effective in preventing multiple diseases…Alzheimer’s, Chronic Constipation, and Colon Cancer, among many others. Cheers!🇨🇦☺🇨🇦

My pain doctor (who is also a true expert in metabolism) who has now become one of my closest friends, did research into caffeine after I told him for years I do worse after I have my coffee. He discovered that caffeine blocks the function of a key natural pain blocking chemical in the body. We both discussed it and realized that I was BY FAR the worst in my pain disease when I was drinking free coffee at work. The amplified bone crushing pain ended up costing me my job -- and career. Based on what he and I have learned about caffeine and pain, I would recommend that anyone struggling with chronic pain stop drinking coffee (and sadly even decaf... long story). Go for a month without it to see how you do. Then you can consider starting again.

Useful and valuable information about coffee. This coffee that we drink and enjoy every moment. These kinds of films are actually worth watching several times. Thank you to the BBC for making this.

[@michaelshive6748]

As a coffe lover, I agree. Coffee runs through my veins

[@addanametocontinue]

Coffee by itself is okay. Coffee with creamer just makes it so much better.

[@Boston82bl]

Yes it may taste better with sugar and creamer but then you lose all the coffee benefits once you add that poison.

[@NeedMoarRage]

Creamers are basically a poison, try not to get accustomed to it. If the coffee is of good quality and brewed well you should not need that, especially those artificial flavoured ones. Milk will give that hint of sweetness and balance.

[@swisstrader]

@@Boston82blhow? No real negatives with cream or milk

[@Dahpie]

Yuck, black coffee is better. If your coffee is of good quality it will taste nice without creamer, sugar and all that unhealthy crap you put in it.

[@KedrickNKweh]

As an active gym goer. I had no clue that my lack of recovery was due to my intense coffee intake. The level of insomnia that I had to deal with over the years were absolutely unbearable. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed some of the benefits of coffee as mentioned in this video. Mainly, "The suppression of appetite and massive increase in strength /energy levels. However I would never prioritize a coffee over my sleep, as it could have been very detrimental to my overall health. So I had to quit!! Nonetheless, I still miss that massive aroma!

My rule is just 1 cup of coffee a day around 10am or half an hour after I wake up if I have the gym.

[@pablopiquante3227]

I’m somewhat surprised this video does not mention how blood flow to the brain is reduced by 50% after consuming coffee. I believe there is an excellent book entitled ‘Caffeine Blues’ that is an excellent source of caffeine’s effects on the mind and body.

It often works for me to stop a migraine which is a disease that affects the nervous system so now i’m understanding why drinking coffee helps

[@mark-ish]

Migraine is symptom, not a disease.

[@HazimZaki-y8b]

I went through the same thing as you but I only found out I was actually deficient in other minerals and vitamins. I began consuming Zinc and vitamin c in the morning and I no longer have headaches! You should give it a go if your migraine persist.

[@gazzyb85]

The migraine is likely due to coffee addiction and its withdrawal effects. It is very common to experience a headache when you start to withdraw from coffee, even after just a few hours without it. Drinking coffee again can relieve the headache. This occurs because caffeine blocks adenosine receptors in the brain, and during withdrawal, the accumulated adenosine exerts its effects more strongly.

[@suefountain2119]

@@gazzyb85 I didn’t think that I had a coffee addiction as I only drink 1 mug (2 cups) a day after breakfast. If my migraine is full swing, coffee doesn’t have any taste and i don’t want to drink it.

Please explain why coffee has the opposite effect for some people with ADHD

[@thelifelongnomad]

Paradoxical reactions are common with coffee, medications and herbs for some neurodiverse people.

[@deem7718]

Caffeine increases dopamine levels, which may help with ADHD.

[@KK-lg8uz]

one big reason is caffeine withdrawal (which you experience each day unless you have caffeine or quit). That causes ADHD type symptoms. You think you're getting relief from ADHD, but you're in fact just alleviating the withdrawal process. ADHD is an issue with the dopaminergic system and caffeine messes with that. The fix is actually no drugs whatsoever (including caffeine, alcohol, nicotine, weed) and a ketogenic/carnivore diet. It regulates brain function. Sugar and ultra-processed foods can also cause over-excitation triggering ADHD, just like drugs can.

[@KK-lg8uz]

@@deem7718 yes but unfortunately it puts you on a rollercoaster, and the lows become even lower. Its not a fix, its a bandaid . You really have to fix the root of the problem to get anywhere.

[@TricksyBix]

Coffee also stimulates the production of the hormone gastrin, which helps push food through the gut. So if you find drinking coffee helps you to do a poo, then you are correct, it does!
