I am an apologist when it comes to coffee drinkers and caffeine consumers everywhere. While I recognize that like all things, too much of it can be harmful, I am glad to hear of the continued research that shows the positives of both caffeine and coffee.
It is unfortunate that many people (including those who do drink coffee) think of this habit as a sort of vice. The vice-people contend that drinking it is really not good for you. They believe that drinking coffee is a minor indulgence when compared to many other “vices.” While an over-consumption of coffee (or anything for that matter) is a vice, moderately drinking a couple cups a day is actually good for you.
Swedish researchers have discovered that two cups of coffee a day can reduce your chance of liver cancer by 43%. Furthermore, time and again the research has indicated that coffee does not increase the chance of cancer and this study only shows that a regular dose of coffee might actually be good for your health.
I will no longer argue that drinking coffee is not a vice, but I will now contend that it is a virtue.
