Patient discussion about Nutritional supplement.

Q. Is coffee so harmful? I am Saloni, 17 and a keen coffee-lover. Now-a-days, I drink lot of coffee which my brother has noticed and advised me to minimize the quantity. He also blames coffee for heart diseases and addiction status of the person. Is coffee so harmful?

A. Coffee is a great morning stimulant. Tea can do the same thing. There are lots of grades of coffee. The normal stuff you can get in a regular restaurant is usually not the best grade. I drink my coffee black. Sugar is not so good for you, but it can give you more energy and keep you going in difficult circumstances. If you shop around for better blends, grind your own beans, and keep your ground coffee fresh, its much better. There is actually a Starbucks blend that is quite excellent. You can easily tell the difference. The really good blends aren't the ones on sale. I find that if you keep your pot of coffee in a caraffe or a thermos where it won't evaporate, it will stay good a long time. Letting a pot of coffee sit on the warmer where it can evaporate all day, will ruin it after a while. My doctor told me that all I needed for morning stimulation was coffee. It keeps me alert when I study and read most days. Enjoy!!!
