*Coffee is safe for most adults. Drinking more than 6 cups/day might cause “caffeinism” with symptoms such as anxiety or agitation. People who drink a lot of coffee every day may need to drink more coffee to get the same effects. They may also become “dependent” on coffee to the point that they develop withdrawal symptoms if they suddenly stop drinking it.* Coffee is acid forming (see [[Acid/alkaline balance]])* Any beverage or food containing caffeine such as coffee, tea, chocolate and some sodas can inhibit the absorption of vitamins and minerals and increase their excretion from the body.* Acrylamide is a potentially harmful chemical formed during the coffee bean roasting process.* Coffee consumption interferes with sleep quantity and quality. Caffeinated coffee causes a decrease in 6-SMT ([[melatonin]]) excretion throughout the following night.

* [[Parkinson's disease Disease (PD)]] : higher consumption of coffee is associated with decreased risk of Parkinson’s* dementia [[Dementia]] : Coffee has also been linked to lower risk of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease. * cancer [[Autophagy]] trigger : high Studies show that coffee consumption is associated with decreased risk of liver cirrhosis and liver cancerhas very positive effects on various metabolic diseases such as diabetes or lipid metabolism disorders. Reducing the * [[Colon Cancer]] : Two cups a day reduced subjects' risk of colorectal for colon cancerby 20 percent. Some research suggests that drinking more than 3 cups of coffee daily may significantly reduce the risk of rectal cancer.* Two [[Endometrial Cancer]] : four cups of coffee a day reduced subjects' may reduce your risk for colon of developing cancer by 20 percentof the endometrium, or the lining of the uterus, according to researchers.* [[Liver Cancer]] : Coffee is a potent weapon against liver cancer and fibrosis.* [[Cirrhosis]] : Two cups a day caused an 80 percent drop in the odds of developing cirrhosis.* heart rhythm problems : People who reported four or more cups a day had almost an 18% reduction in the risk of being hospitalized for rhythm disturbances.* strokes : More cups of coffee a day may reduce Stroke risk in women.* gallstones : Coffee reduces the risk of gallstones, according to a 1999 study published in the "Journal of the American Medical Association".

*The better option is for a 100% arabica, unwashed bean roasted at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will give you the best chlorogenic acid to caffeine ratio available from the various processing methods. * New research in Molecular Nutrition & Food Research found that dark roast coffee restored blood levels of the antioxidants vitamin E and glutathione more effectively than light roast coffee. The dark roast also led to a significant body weight reduction in pre-obese volunteers, whereas the light roast did not. Separate research also showed that dark roast coffee contains more of a chemical called N-methylpyridinium that appears to prevent your stomach cells from producing excess acid. This means dark roast coffee may be gentler on your stomach and not induce the irritation that light roasts can often bring. In addition to the benefits mentioned above, dark roast coffee also has less caffeine than light roast. While this can be considered a positive attribute, know that caffeine in coffee may not be as harmful as once thought.
