Consequences from drinking coffee/tea?

[Mint]

Millions of people drink cups and cups of coffee/tea every day, and especially with around 2 sugars and all that caffeine, there has to be some consequences from drinking loads of it. So is there any down sides from drinking 5-10 cups of either a day?

Coffee stains your teeth and is generally bad for you if you drink it a lot. I don't know about tea but I feel better drinking it than coffee all the time.

When you say generally bad, in what ways does it affect you?

[JackBuddy]

The caffeine is bad for your heart.

You can feel sluggish without it. Basically if you drink it in the morning for a boost for a long period of time, you begin to rely on it because caffine is obviously a drug. I normally take it once in a while but I don't drink it daily.

Toothpaste, mouthwash and mints.

Polos could make you smell at the other end though.

Harness a little self-restraint and only leak in a safe place? Besides, Polos are not bad. Other types of mints, however...

I have drunk tea since I was about 4, about 4-6 cups a tea everyday with 2-3 sugars and my teeth are white as ever. Although you must keep your iron levels up, tea reduces your iron level by quite alot.

and lmao i had an addiction to coffee and it got really bad so i had to sort of give it up. i only have one a week now.

Staining your teeth if you drink to much from the caffeine

[Virgin Mary]

Both contain tannin which stains the teeth and causes indigestion. Caffeine can cause heart problems and along with the hormones in milk can give you spots.

Probably because one a day isn't a lot...

One a day is nothing, I have at least 5 a day and I wouldn't even class that as being addicted, barely even 1 every 3 hours. Addicted is when you make one after the other. :P

If you drink like 5 cups off coffee your teeth will be stained you will be hyper to

you'll get addicted!

[leah]

I don't drink coffee anymore but I have tea with no sugar so it can't be that bad :P

[tdi]

coffee is amazing, yes.. i drink about 5 cups a day at work and I don't class it as 'addicted'

i just think you're over exxagerating, it's no biggie really.

Same :D

i have a cup of tea from costa/starbucks like once a week & ill drink it at home - with a splash of milk & no sugar

People should be able to drink as much coffee as they wish. This healthy eating lark is getting to the point where you can't consume anything. It's putting restraints on people's lives. The science is rubbish as well, they change their minds every few years or so. Some chocolate is good for you, no don't touch chocolate... Christ, give it a rest.

[Rozi]

I only drink tea very occasionally, not because of the heathy aspect, just because it's not that nice.

[Immenseman]

Why would you drink it at all then?! I love tea! yay.
