Caffeine...

What's good and what's bad about coffee?

Some things I can think of.

Downsides - Raises blood pressure, addictive, bad calories, interrupts sleep, stains teeth.

Upsides - Keeps you alert, gets rid of headaches, has antioxidants, supposedly lowers risk of diabetes, Parkinson’s, colon cancer, gallstones, and Alzheimer’s disease. Who knows if they are true!

The positive list is longer than the negative ones. But still why are we advised to stay away from caffeine if they are that good for you?
