This is a pretty good take, but I have a few notes to make.

3. It doesn’t negate the effects of sleep deprivation, it only masks them. Sleep deprivation is a major health problem that won’t be fixed by coffee.

5. Caffeine can be a vasodilator OR a vasoconstrictor depending on the individual, concentration, and frequency. A vasodilator can prevent clots blocking blood vessels, which may cause a lower risk of stroke, ONLY if the stroke was caused by a clot and not a bleed. It won’t help with a bleed. If the caffeine instead has a vasoconstricting effect, it can actually raise the risk of stroke.

6. Same thing as 5 with vasoconstriction/dilation. It can help or hinder. Caffeine is also a diuretic and can cause dehydration, which is only going to hurt athletic ability.

17. Actually, studies show that high caffeine consumption can cause eye disease, not prevent or help it, specifically glaucoma.

Excess caffeine consumption can also cause insomnia, anxiety, irritability, tremors and increased heart rate/blood pressure.

Coffee can be great, but only in moderation :p

[vekin]

just like with many researches the results are often different... just want to look at coffee from a positive side

[GingerBear]

I understand, but point 3 was sort of just outright wrong. I don't think people should go around thinking that coffee is gonna fix sleep deprivation :p that's all.

[Spiorad_Aisce]

I was never a big coffee drinker but enjoy it when I partake in one.

[BruceJender]

I read this drinking tea.

Most of those sound like placebo effects. I hate coffee and always will because the taste is awful.
If I need to wake up I'll take a Red Bull.

[vekin]

Maybe you should try another coffee bean?

[John_Doesnt]

I'll try Satan's coffee bean.

[complicated_soul]

I don't think I would put it on my face. I would use it as body scrub lol.

Nice take.

☕☕

[Marstalk]

Did you know coffee is actually suppose to be sweet.

[vekin]

No i didn't know

[Marstalk]

Yeah, South America gets to keep the good beans.

[93stepsawayfromhome]

22) It prevents me from falling asleep in the middle of a class

[vekin]

Are classes that boring?

[93stepsawayfromhome]

Yes. And I don't sleep enough. Deadly combination.

[vekin]

[Nathand]

[Byakuyarko]

I love coffee... Whenever I am out of tea, coffee has me covered for my caffeine needs.

[Anonymous]

yeah right you forgot mentioning is toxic, causes sleep deprivation and neurological problems, destroys the liver and is one of the worst possible addictions and usually encourages smoking.

[koko124]

You forgot poop

[Applefan1]

Yes and pooping is always a good thing to do especially if it is at work and during work time the boss is paying you to poop. :P

[koko124]

But you also pay for it by having to use a public bathroom to poop
