Do you Drink Coffee? - The Kekistani Assembly of Experts

Do you Drink Coffee? I always did. Just two cups in the morning and I never had a problem until I got older. It started to bother my digestive system so I gave it up. Now I drink tea instead and I see a remarkable difference. My digestive problems went away and after a few months, my systolic blood pressure dropped 25 points! It was 125ish before down to 100 now and the only thing I did was give up coffee. Hmm.

I can't tell you how many articles I've seen touting the benefits of drinking coffee. I'm sure you've seen them too. Maybe if I gave up coffee years ago I wouldn't have needed blood pressure meds. I'd say its a possibility. So many people are on blood pressure meds it makes me wonder if all the articles pushing the benefits of coffee are published for the benefit of big pharma.

No, never liked it. Very odd, since I do like coffee flavored ice cream.

Coffee flavored ice cream is really good.

I drink heaps of coffee when I'm doing mental work. About half a dozen cups would upset my heart so I stop short of that. I start with boiled water (add a little cold water like you were adding milk). Then a tea or two. Then a coffee or three. By that time my bladder is going full bore so I switch to physical work. Still half a dozen cups if my session lasts that long but fewer coffees.
