“Numerous studies have shown that coffee drinking is associated with a lower risk of dying from all causes of death”
I’m going with this. (from bogman’s link to Coffee and Cancer, American Cancer Society). Brew me another cup please.
Coffee, red wine, animal fats, complex carbs, grains, dairy (whole or low fat), whole eggs, red meat, pork, chicken is good/bad for you, I can’t keep up. Most of these opinions are agenda driven, IMHO. Next year coffee will be good for you again.
Spiced coffee? Well, speaking of spice, I saw a warning sticker on turmeric, and noticed that the shade of color varied between brands, so it seems that indeed could be an indication of something else being mixed in there...
As turmeric and other spices are commonly sold by weight, the potential exists for powders of toxic, cheaper agents with a similar color to be added, such as lead oxide, giving turmeric an orange-red color instead of its native gold-yellow.
Financially motivated adulteration of spices is a long-standing and important public health problem worldwide…
The woman’s a freaking menace. And not that I disagree with the underlying sentiment, but I feel obliged to point out that natural (koff, koff) bullshit serves at least one very useful purpose, and compared to quite a few much more unpleasant odoriferous materials one may easily encounter in everyday life, it doesn’t stink to high heaven…
