A new study suggests that drinking coffee significantly reduces our skin-cancer risk. There’s a raft of other research that’s piling up evidence that regular cups of joe—six-ounce servings packed with antioxidants, polyphenols, and other health-boosting chemicals—can prevent everything from diabetes to depression to cirrhosis of the liver to stroke. (Intracranial aneurysms, not so much.) Scared of superbugs? Pour yourself another cup.

My problem is that it almost has to be Starbucks these days. I was never picky about the coffee I drank ... until I sampled French Roast. Seems that I'm wired for dark roasted and acidic. Seriously, how are you going to keep them on the farm when they've seen Paree ?

I am all about drinking good coffee and only good coffee. However, I think Starbucks tastes like burnt crap. Hate the stuff.

That's what I'm talking about though. I like burnt coffee (with a little acid in it).
Basically, I like everything burnt. I ever prefer seared bread to toast.

As had already been stated, caffeine has good and bad properties, just like almost everything else we consume...
A couple of bad ones are it is a diuretic (makes you dehydrated) and it can also cause heart palpitations/arrhythmia....caffeine has also been known to cause panic/anxiety attacks....
A couple good things are it is a nerve stimulant, and like others have already said it can lower the risks of strokes, Alzheimers, etc...
I know this is common knowledge but dont forget caffeine is not just coffee...tea and soda as well have caffeine so if you drink all of those each at least once a day then I would try to scale back...
