Coffee's good but I to drink the creamer. Sickeningly delicious.

 

[Captain Beard]

Hazelnut creamer?

 

[Eemar]

you guys are caffeine n00bs

you all realize that consuming so much caffeine will weaken the effects, so you will need to drink more and more.

also an 8oz cup of coffee has on average between 100 and 135mg of caffiene, most caffiene pills are either 100 or 200mg. If you consume 250mg you will experience caffiene intoxication which pretty much just overstimulates your central nervous system, keeps you wired, causes restlessness, in some cases nausea, diarrhea, "shaking" etc...

generally 13 grams (thats a fuckton of caffeine) is the lethal dosage of caffeine for the average adult. (and if you can orally consume that much caffeine in one time, then you deserve to die)

Caffeiene is a mild amphetamine, it is addictive and stimulates the brain the same ways as all amphetamines, it attaches to the the adenosine receptors in your brain and prevents the normal adensosine from attaching (which causes drowsiness) and it also causes your adrenal glands to produce extra ammounts of epinefrin (gets your adrenaline going)

PS: Caffeine abuse can lead to both heart attack and stroke

See, this is exactly why I roast and grind my own coffee beans.
I am 100% sure that NO ONE on this board ever had a fresher cup of coffee than what I get every morning.
Cafein tends to evaporate from the bean, so every time you buy a bag of roasted beans know that they are stale and contain 50% of the cafein that they suppose to have.
Thats why people drink a lot of coffee a day. Me? I drink one cup in the morning and I'm good. Thats it. ONE.
You've never had coffee unless you've tasted a FRESH roasted one. SERIOUSLY.

You're right about the caffein effects Mike: but like everything else in life:
don't overdo anything and you'll be fine.

so today i'm gonna have a cup of coffee to help me stay up late tonight, because i hate waking up at 5am, because i'm jetlagged. So i'm gonna post my "coffee trip" later today.

i drink coffee every now and then... not really an addiction... its just good every so often

 

[Cephalopod]

Maybe I don't know how to drink it properly. Coffee always gives me an upset stomach and nothing else.

Yep, almost anything can be harmful if you don't use moderation. I only drink 2 cups a day, or a cup and a Monster.
Maybe I'll get to try a fresh roasted cup sometime.
