Coffee Brews Trouble!

Well after centuries long debate that woman are the most confusing creations from God now we have the latest addition to this list and it’s called the very famous “Coffee.”

And the controversy is a bit like the Shakespearian dialogue “To drink or, Not to drink… Which is the question?” The US based study showed the world that this beverage can increase a woman’s libido! On the other hand, Canadian researchers state that excess coffee could possibly lead to increased risk of heart diseases in presence of the wrong gene! These new studies come in after a series of previous researches which state that coffee has a very potent anti-oxidant property (which reduce ageing).

According to some cardiologists both black coffee and black tea is rich in anti-oxidants but the problem is the addition of milk and sugar because they are rich in cholesterol. And recent medical research has shown that having coffee is good for some and bad for others depending on their genes. If the gene has the ability to break coffee then there will be no side-effects.

Plus the old adage still holds true in all cases “More of anything is disastrous.” Anything in excess like coffee, tea, beer and chocolates are bad depending upon the body’s temperament.

So currently till this controversy rages on the best thing is to have “An apple a day to keep the doctor away.” But do toss the apple away if the doctor is a gorgeous lady… ;)
