Something like 5-6 cups of coffee a day cuts your risk of prostate chance buy like 60%. There are far more positive benefits to coffee than negative.

excess coffee (more than 3 cups a day) puts unnecessary stress on your body specially the heart and nervous system,, caffeine toxicity wasn't a good experience to me

Coffee actually lowers your risk of diabetes, heart disease, cancers (i believe somewhere around 50% less likely for liver cancer, and those with 6 or more cups a day lessened for prostate cancer), parkinsons, and abnormal heart rhythms. Not sure where you think it stresses our heart out...

edit: also I believe it plays a role in regulating sex hormones, insulin and glucose levels as well. It's been a while since college. This bangin chick did a case study on coffee. So be careful what you put out there as fact, and more or less your opinion

Like I said, I remember bits and pieces from back in college. I'd try a google search and see what comes up. I did one quick and didn't see any hard science articles about it but this popped up Top 15 Effects That Coffee Has on Your Health - Softpedia I know Harvard i believe did a major study on it, you could try adding that to your search. Good morning america (lol) also just did an article on it a couple weeks ago with some doctor. Keep in mind, i think most of these studies were done on BLACK coffee. Not sugar/sweeteners and cream/milk.
