Should You Drink Coffee Daily?
The experts now agree that coffee is good for us, as long as it is drunk in moderation. Four espressos a day is fine, apparently. Just as well for Italians, who thrive on the stuff!
It seems that coffee protects our livers from cirrhosis as well as improving our blood circulation. It can also help protect us from certain cancers, particularly those of the prostate, the pancreas, and the bladder, to name just a few.
It also protects our teeth from decay and it is a wonderful source of antioxidants which protect us from the free radicals in our bodies that can cause cancer. Of course, we also get antioxidants from fresh fruit and vegetables, as well as other foods, but coffee contains 600 times the antioxidants than fruit.
Antioxidants can delay the aging process, giving our skin its youthful elasticity. They can help combat wrinkles and the crows feet that form around the eyes as we age.
Science has found that if you drink between 3 and 5 cups of coffee a day, it can protect you from developing dementia, Parkinson's disease and that all being so, it can also help you live longer.
coffee can also combat depression and so it can cut the risk of suicide. Of course, it would be best if you drink black coffee without sugar. Sugar certainly isn't good for us. If only we could wean ourselves off it, we'd be much healthier.
Coffee has a part to play in the Mediterranean diet, as people who live in the Mediterranean area tend to drink a lot of coffee. They don't usually have milk in their coffee, think about Greek coffee, for example. Recent research studies have shown that dairy products are bad for us. Milk deprives our bones of calcium, and cheese and milk have both been linked to risks of prostate cancer. The advertisers have done a great job in persuading us that milk is good for us. It isn't! Also, children of both sexes can develop acne from consuming dairy products.
Naturally, everyone reacts differently to coffee. Some people experience panic attacks, anxiety, insomnia, disturbed sleep, and headaches because of their caffeine intake.
The brew certainly improves mental alertness, which is why a lot of people drink a cup of coffee just after they wake up in the morning. Just the smell of freshly brewed coffee usually makes us feel better and more awake.
So let's carry on drinking coffee, secure in the knowledge that it's good for us, as long as we don't put sugar and milk in it.

Who Should Be Drinking Coffee?
Scientists have long believed that coffee is beneficial to our health. It helps our heart function normally and now scientists believe that we should drink four shots of espresso per day or cups of coffee containing equivalent amounts of caffeine. This idea was put forward by a group of German researchers who found that coffee affects the cells in our blood vessels, making them perform as though they were younger than they are. Older adults can this benefit from the stimulus that coffee provides to their cells.
The results of two major studies of coffee drinkers, one carried out in the US by the National Institutes of Health studied more than 400,000 people and the other conducted in Europe studied 521,330 people. Both found that people who drink coffee are less likely to die from heart disease. This particular finding debunks the old myth that people with heart problems shouldn't drink coffee.
Coffee drinkers have a lower risk of cirrhosis of the liver, a lower risk of developing some cancers, a lower risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and are less likely to suffer from depression than people who don't drink the brew.
But what if you don't like the taste of coffee? Green tea might be the answer to this question as it contains similar amounts of caffeine.
A word of warning though before you overdo your intake of caffeine. Too much caffeine can make your heart beat faster, and cause other health problems. Different people have different reactions to caffeine. One person might easily be able to drink four or five cups of coffee a day, while another person might suffer adverse effects. Scientists have also said that as caffeine can be responsible for making blood vessels grow, this can have the effect of giving more oxygen to boost cancerous tumors. So if you have been diagnosed with cancer, stay away from coffee.
Cardiologists say that coffee may (it hasn't yet been proven) reduce arrhythmias in those who have irregular heartbeats. Coffee is not the answer, in itself, to living a long life. Everyone should exercise regularly and eat healthy food. Avoid additives and preservatives as well as food that has been sprayed with herbicides and pesticides. Eat organic produce, even if it is more expensive, if you want to improve your chances of living to a ripe old age.
Coffee is not a panacea, but research studies have found that it can improve longevity and lower the risk of contracting certain diseases.

14 Best Uses of Coffee Grounds
Is there such a thing as truly useless refuse? I would think not, particularly in light of the wealth of information on how to reuse things of little value. Things that most people undervalue, for example, glass, lumber, wood pulp, paper, used rubber tires, and in the scope of this article. I guess it truly is a case of one man's trash is another man's treasure. As it turns out, this treasure, in this case, used coffee grounds, can be put to more than one use, in fact, I can list 15 uses right now.
1. Insect control
Insect control - There is currently an online meme going around that spraying used coffee grounds on your plants and skin will repel mosquitoes, particularly ones that carry Zika Virus. There is in fact no scientific literature to demonstrate this, although there is some evidence research-wise that spraying coffee and used coffee grounds on mosquito breeding sites inhibited the embryogenesis of mosquito larvae, and thus significantly reduced the number of mosquito larvae that successfully matured into adults.
2. Fertilizer
For plants that like acidic soil, such as hydrangeas, rhododendrons, camellias, roses, blueberries, magnolia trees, etc. Used coffee ground can serve as a source of excellent fertilizer. Some flowers will even change colors depending on the pH level of the surrounding soil, so put the blue in your hydrangea bloom, with used coffee grounds!
3. Carrots and radish growth
Carrots and radishes work great with used coffee grounds. Sprinkling the latter onto the former before planting will help the little seedlings grow faster and provide an extra boost when they are just germinating, you are sure to reap bigger produce as a result. A literal example of reaping what you sow!
4. Growing your own mushrooms
Do you like to eat mushrooms? They can be quite the delicacy. Certain types of mushrooms are amenable to being grown in containers filled with used coffee grounds. For example, the pearl oyster mushrooms. Grow your own 'shrooms today and become a spore farmer!
5. Clean your fireplace
Clean your fireplace. Adding some damp coffee grounds to your fireplace will enable you to sweep all the ash away without creating a billowing cloud of dust.
6. Deodorize your fridge
Does your fridge smell like a garbage dump? Use it to keep it smelling fresh and pristine. Works even better than baking soda.
7. Pet anti-flea bath
Add some coffee grounds to your dog or cat's shampoo to deliver a flea repellent flea bath.
8. Strip hair buildup
Adding some to your shampoo or conditioner can strip oil and other buildup from your hair.
9. Remove eye bags
It can help you in other ways in the mornings too. In this case they can be used to reduce the dark circles under your eyes.
10. "Salting" the street
Caught in a snow storm? Reduce your chances of getting snowed in by using coffee grounds to "salt" the roads and sidewalks. Used coffee grounds make for great gravel and the acidic content helps to burns through the ice faster.
11. Make garbage disposal cleaners
Did you know you can make garbage disposal cleaners using it? You can make them using just the coffee grounds, epsom salt, baking soda, a little vinegar, and maybe a little vanilla.
12. Unclogging your drain
It can also be used to unclog your drain. All that's needed is boiling water, a little dish soap, and the used coffee grounds. Just 3 drops of dish soap, a pot of boiling water, and the grounds will cleanse the drain of grease and clogs.
13. Get rid of odors
It can be used to get rid of odors after chopping up foul smelling things. Just rub them on your hands and wash afterwards. The grounds will neutralize the odor.
14. Pan cleaning
Do you have caked-on dirt on your pans? If so, some coffee grounds sprinkled on a rag will remove them easily, just don't use it on ceramic dishes and other types that stain easily.
