Two cups/mugs of coffee should be the limit. I like my mug of coffee with two raw sugars and one evaporate milk (prefer PET brand) or organic half&half.

Brown sugar and lots of cream.

Brown sugar works.

i use raw sugar and cream

This health notice bought to you by Starbucks "Drink more coffee"




I'm sorry, Imma haveta lose out on all the healthy stuff at 4 cups a day. Not happening. Heck I'm all sprung on 2 cups of green tea a day, 3 cups and I'm wired. I've read the healthy benies really kick in on green tea at 12 cups a day, that ain' happenin' either. I really like chai lattes but that black tea has me looking at my ceiling at 3:30am, and decaf ain't as good.

I don't know how folks do it.

I guess that's what red wine is for. Once you've wound yourself up with all that healthy coffee, you wind down with a bottle of red.

Red Wine Burns Fat And Lowers Blood Pressure, Plus 5 Other Health Benefits For Winos

5 Buzz-Worthy Benefits Of Red Wine:

1. Memory Protection Against Alzheimer’s Disease: The powerful antioxidant resveratrol protects against cell damage and prevents age-related mental decline.
2. Mimics Gym Time: Resveratrol is also responsible for heart-healthy benefits, including improved physical performance and muscle strength. It also mimics cardiovascular enhancements similar to exercise. But the benefits are limited, so don’t always trade in your cardio for cabernet.
3. Cancer Treatment: Researchers aren’t exactly sure how, but another active antioxidant in red wine known as quercetin works against cancer cells, according to the American Cancer Society. It helps to induce natural cell death in certain types of cancers, most often colon cancer.
4. Promotes Long Life: Red wine drinkers have a 34 percent lower mortality rate than beer or vodka drinkers, according to a 29-year-long study. Resveratrol is the polyphenol that could be responsible for its longevity benefits. But researchers think any diet rich in polyphenols, which are known to protect against the development of chronic diseases — they're found amply in red wine — could be why.
5. Lowers Risk Of Heart Disease and Stroke: Red wine tannins, which are what make red wine the color red, contain procyanidins — known for protecting against heart disease. Resveratrol also helps to remove chemicals responsible for causing blood clots, which is the primary cause of coronary disease. A daily dose of red wine cuts blood clot-related stroke rates by 50 percent.
