Coffee can help you lose some weight because the caffeine in the coffee helps to increase your bodies resting metabolic rate which in turn helps you burn off calories especially when resting.

Although coffee alone won't help you lose a huge amount of weight it can help.

You still need to eat healthy, exercise and burn off those calories to see significant results with weight loss.

Coffee does make you poop.

Coffee contains a stimulate known as Caffeine and that Caffeine can stimulate your need to poop and so if you drink coffee you may need to poop later on.

Also Caffeine is a diuretic so by drinking coffee it can also make you pee more often.

I have to pee 20 minutes or less after drinking a cup of coffee.

Coffee contains no nicotine but coffee does contain caffeine which is another addictive drug although caffeine is much healthier than nicotine.

You can get addicted to the caffeine in coffee and have a caffeine withdraw.

Caffeine is also in sodas, tea and energy drinks as well and you can get addicted to those things as well.

Coffee is healthy in moderation because coffee contains antioxidants and other active substances that may reduce internal inflammation and protect against disease such as heart disease, diabetes, strokes, heart attacks, dementia and even some certain cancers.

It's safe to consume up to 400 Milligrams of Caffeine per day before it becomes a problem with your health.

That amounts to 4 cups of brewed coffee per day.

However some people safely drink up to 12 cups of coffee per day and still are healthy.

Anymore than 12 cups of coffee per day could be a potential health issue but some people do safely drink more than that per day and are okay.

It's OK to drink coffee everyday and drinking coffee everyday is healthy.

Drinking Coffee can also help improve your heart health, brain health and prevent heart disease, strokes, dementia etc.

Coffee can be bad for your heart when consumed in excess.

However when coffee is consumed in moderation the coffee can actually benefit your heart health and overall health.

Drinking coffee in moderation may actually build a strong healthy heart and prevent heart disease, heart attacks, strokes and much more.

Coffee also has the ability to potentially prevent dementia and other brain diseases.

Drinking coffee in moderation may also lower your risk of diabetes, certain cancers and may actually help you live longer.

I have a 110 year old lady neighbor who drinks at least 12 cups of coffee everyday and she has been drinking coffee since she was around 20 years old.

So that means that she's been drinking coffee for 90 years and is still very healthy and has a strong heart.

She actually still gets out and walks to the store, walks around etc.
