As much as I love coffee, I am just about as certain as I can be that drinking it every day does me more harm than good. I only ever drink at most two cups per day, but always from cafes, where perhaps the caffeine content is higher than normal (can anyone verify?).
Anyway, the main problem for me is how it affects my bowel movements. If I drink it regularly, I naturally feel the call of nature more often than usual, but what I produce is typically incomplete and insubstantial, and this causes me a great deal of distress. I also have issues with my pelvic floor, and stressful bowel movements are really the last thing I need. When I reduce my intake of coffee, I seem to poo normally, and naturally.
Does anyone else have this problem? As I said, I love coffee and, aside from this, it generally makes me feel pretty good. Is the problem cafe coffee? I always have my coffee with sugar and try my best to have it with food, but don't always succeed. Is this issue indicative of some other health issue? Any advice would be much appreciated. Maybe I'm just more susceptible to stimulants than normal?
