Then I get another 'hit' like yesterday with the coffee, felt good while drinking it and felt like shit again instantly when I finished it. I'll have to keep that in mind for later today, but honestly I can't say if i'll be able to NOT drink it today.
How long have you smoked for?
You're alright with the coffee, Ben. I know you're proud of your 1 cup/day, but studies actually show the more you drink - up to 5-6 cups (6 oz "cups"), the more years you'll add to your life. It's something like 12% on average for men, 16% for women. It's also the #1 source of antioxidants in the Western diet (maybe even the Down Under diet?), lengthens telomeres (an indicator of longevity), lowers risk for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, depression, diabetes, and liver issues (good for those ppl at AA meetings who drink coffee, I guess!)
Those of us drinking coffee at AA meetings can't undo the damage of alcohol by simply drinking coffee XDDDD
and rtboss, your fact stating isn't making it any easier for those of us hooked on 5 cups a day any easier
