    Anti-thiamine Factor In Coffee

    I've been reading a lot about thiamine and I came across some interesting conflicting statements. One -- that coffee has an anti-thiamin factor in it, binds to b1 and makes it hard for the body to use. However I've also read RP stating that coffee contains both magnesium and thiamine. I looked...

    I can't tolerate coffee anymore

    Coffee makes me feel amazing...until it doesn't. After the short lived happy warm moments, I crash hard from even a very small cup of coffee, with milk and sugar, with a meal. I used to be able to tolerate coffee with meals or with lots of sugar and milk, but even a small amount isn't worth the...

    Coffee Keeps Making Me Sick

    (graphic warning!) For a while now I've had a noticeable immune reaction from coffee. It causes bad post-nasal drip/mucous and makes me feel sick. In the last month I've probably vomited 8-10 times within 30-60 minutes of drinking (fresh) coffee. Doesn't matter whether with or without food...

    I get no kick from caffeine...

    ♫ ... mere coffee drinks never fuel me at all. ♫ (Sung to the tune of "I Get a Kick Out of You" as featured in one of my favorite movie scenes.) But seriously, caffeine seems to have little to no effect on me. I've never felt any stimulant effect from a coffee beverage of any kind. As an...

    Coffee (caffeine) protects against melanoma

    The study supports once again Peat's statements, and even though it looked at coffee usage, it is likely that caffeine is the protective substance since decaffeinated coffee did not have much effect. The mechanism of action may be caffeine's effects of increasing levels of cAMP, which leads to...

    How would you guys interpret the fact that I got extremly tired despite having ingested probably at least the equivalent of 4 cups of coffee between noon and 15:00 and eaten lots of sugar with it? After a very short bike ride for some groceries I came home and felt extremly tired and lay down...

    Coffee and zinc absorption

    I know Ray recommends having coffee after eating red meat to limit iron absorption. But since red meat is my main source of zinc ( i don't eat oysters) will coffee also inhibit zinc absorption? Does anyone know if coffee inhibits absorption of other minerals besides iron? I don't eat a lot of...

    Coffee Helps Prevent Type 2 Diabetes

    Not sure if this ties with Ray's true causes of diabetes type 2 ( he doesn't see the pancreas as a culprit) but it does add to the already known qualities of coffee. From Sepp Hasselberger's blog http://www.scoop.it/t/health-supreme?page=44
