Is caffeine good for health?

I think health is connected to your mind. So I have a perfect pefect health and I drink lots of coffee. Today seems all is good and all is bad for your health. Just see what YOU think is good for you and forget opinions.

Caffeine is a drug, it is a stimulant that you can consume either by eating it or drinking it like in chocolate and coffee. For some people stimulants can be good and in others they are bad.

I drink a lot of soda and yes to a degree I can and will say that I'm addicted to it (one of the bad sides to any drug), but I love my soda and I'm not really willing to give it up even though I know that the side effects are not good for me. Caffeine doesn't help my eczema at all! I just bought some at the store so I wouldn't have to leave the house to get it which means I'm drinking more or it and my skin is responding very badly. I know I shouldn't have bought it but I did and now I have to deal with the consequences. I little doesn't bother me but a lot does.

If you do drink or eat things with caffeine in them pay attention to how your body responds. Some people just feel more alert, some get very hyper and some have hot flashes (their body becomes very warm for a short time), while some people will notice their heart races. Caffeine is also a diuretic, meaning it will make you go to the bathroom a lot. So if you drink or eat a lot of things with caffeine you will have to increase your water intake also.

You can search for caffeine on Google and read the many reports for yourself to find out what other medical uses there are for caffeine and get the factual information on the good and the bad effects and make the choice for yourself.

I understand what you mean about being confused because I too have heard people on both sides of the fence on this. Though I drink caffeine everyday I don't think it is good for me. My doctor always told me not to drink it while pregnant and when you look at a lot of illnesses they say to not drink caffeine to help. I think that small doses will not hard you like a cup of coffee a day. But if you are downing a couple pots a day then it may affect you negatively. Too much of anything is not good for anyone.

Caffeine can actually stimulate the brain and nervous system. It can make you feel more alert and better able to concentrate, and it also increases acid production in the stomach, which helps digestion. However, too much caffeine is no good. In fact, too much of anything is no good.
The disadvantages of caffeine are that it raises your heart rate and blood pressure and makes you pass more urine - so you may end up losing calcium if you have too much. Sensitivity to caffeine varies from person to person, but too much can make you anxious, restless, irritable, jittery and sleepless. It can also give you headaches, stomach pain, nausea, muscle twitching or palpitations.
