Keep in mind this was a very long time ago. When I was six years old, my granddaddy would take me and my twin brother to work with him. Granddaddy worked at night as a security guard, so it was no trouble at all for him to let us go to work with him. And it was just the three of us, so needless-to-say, my granddaddy let us go nut! And I’m sure we drove him nuts, as well.
We loved our granddaddy very much which provided many memorable moments growing up. We had the best granddaddy in the world, just as long as we didn’t tell mom, he would let us swear, we could talk about sex, or anything else that we wanted to talk about, and the one thing that mom would have went crazy if she knew that he let us, DRINK COFFEE!
That started a fire that still burns today. No wonder why I have such a coffee addiction today! My granddaddy introduced me to the greatest drink ever. And still every time I take a drink of coffee, I think about those special times. But, back then, I drank coffee because grown-ups drank it and mom would not let us drink it because it wasn’t good for us. I drink for different reasons, now. It really isn’t as bad for you as you think.
Researchers from Harvard University followed data on more than 126,000 people for 18 years, and what they found would surprise the heck out of you. The research found that drinking one to three cups of caffeinated coffee daily can reduce diabetes by single digits. But, drinking six or more cups of coffee per day slashed men’s risks by 54% and more than 30% in women. The more coffee you drink, the better it is for you.
Even migraine headaches coffee has a positive effect! Surprisingly- given that coffee may be a migraine trigger- the caffeine may cure headaches. It is one of the ingredients in some pills because it increases the power of aspirin and other painkillers by as much as 40%.
Here is one more very positive thing about drinking coffee: coffee consumption is also a brain stimulant. As coffee is a stimulant, it can help in concentration. Last year Doctor Chiara Trombetti, of Italy, went as far as suggesting that a morning cup of milky coffee can get sleepy school children off to a good start. However, that is unlikely to be echoed by nutritionists here, who recommended sufficient sleep and good diet as better ways to cope with the mental demands of the brain. I think I will have that second cup of coffee now.
As always, I hope you found this article both informative and entertaining. Thank you for reading, and may GOD bless you always, and always enjoy your next cup of coffee.
