Remember Kids: Drugs are bad! Except for coffee, which lets you work harder and increases your employers profits.
Also alcohol to cope with the stress!
Irish up that coffee, and you can do both at once!
I drink coffee for the joy of it, it doesn't increase my productivity.
When was the last time you tried not drinking coffee for a week?
No.
Did it for 3 months once. That was hell
This is why I hate this stuff. I hate people joking about how much coffee they're drinking because they have so much work to do and don't get to sleep. Meanwhile, every coffee joke sounds like this to me.
More than 400mg of caffeine a day can cause a host of health issues. Of course, because it's legalized and widely available, people discredit the risks.
Just like acetaminophen, which is responsible for 56,000 emergency department visits, 2,600 hospitalizations, and 500 deaths per year, according to the NIH.
I had to go to the company doctor years ago, it was mandatory when you just started working there.
One of the questions was how much coffee I consume each day.
"1 on some days 2" I answered.
He goes off by saying that's great, 2 cups is the max you should drink each day because if you get too much caffeine in your system it builds to much pressure on your muscles or nerves, I don't remember.
After that, we looked at each other in silence for a good 10 or 15 seconds before I began stammering: "cu... cups?? No, no. I meant 1 or 2 pots a day...."
He had mini meltdown and went off on me how bad that was for my body.
Fortunately, you didn't said the pot is one gallon.
Arteries* - the big main pipes for blood that gets tapped leading into all your veins in all your limbs and organs
Caffeine increases heartrate similarly to exercise but unlike exercise your arteries don't open up for caffeine. So you're increasing flow but the pipes can't handle it all, meaning the heart has to PUSH HARDER and eventually this will lead to severe fatigue and heart failure. If you have additional risk factors like a high cholesterol diet (lots of meat) or are overweight then the arteries themselves can also become clogged and fail.
Is that true though?
I mean as a layman is sounds right but I know better than to trust internet strangers so I'm gonna be the jerk today and ask for some studies on that. Please.
I am the one singular internet stranger that you can trust completely. You do not require to read any AP Biology Textbook or look at any studies. Everything I've ever said to anybody was the 100% pure unfiltered truth, now and forever.
I believe you.
Lifts coffe jug
I find it scary that I’ve never had a doctor bring any part of this up
It's one of those things where its a very normal slow death over the course of decades, less harmful than smoking or alcohol, so it often gets brushed off as low priority. The real issue isn't even coffee, imo, but people who take 400mg caffeine energy drinks daily or even multiple times per day.
That's probably because it's massively overblown. Drinking just a few cups of coffee a day is perfectly fine. Energy drinks are the devil's urine tho.
Well that explains the colours
You can avoid this type of confusion if you just get a bigger cup
I only drink 1 cup a day, but the cup is 300ml (~10 fl oz) and it's espresso.
Does coffee make your testicles swell and float like frame 3?
I hope so
And I hope y'all know they're knees and are just being silly on the Internet
The order of my understanding was, "wtf are those, ah swollen testicles of course," and finally, "oh, knees"
Caffeine has got to be among the shittiest drugs to get addicted to. There's no euphoria; you just get anxiety and can't sit still. And then in a couple of hours you get tired and want to go to sleep.
I just don't understand how people get addicted to the stuff. Even when I needed to drink it for my job, the moment I quit that place was the same moment I quit drinking coffee. It's simply not a fun drug at all. There are much better stimulants out there.
Allow me to introduce you to NICOTINE.
No euphoria, also gives you anxiety, makes you stink, discolors your teeth, hair and nails, and slowly kills you.
At least with nicotine you get a bit of a buzz. Especially if you haven't smoked/vaped in years. A nicotine buzz can feel like a small hit of weed when you have no/low tolerance.
Is that nicotine, or just the substances its usually consumed with? Google isnt giving any good answers.
get tired and want ~~to go to sleep. ~~

Is half a pot of black coffee too much?
How many are you drinking per hour

"How many ~~hot dogs~~ cups of coffee do you ~~eat~~ drink on a daily basis?"
