The advantages of understanding German
Coffee is not unhealthy. Why would a doctor be asking a patient about coffee consumption? Doctors ask about cigarettes and ALCOHOL.
Coffee is unhealthy at the volume I drink it
Caffeine is bad for your sleep, especially when drunk too late or too much.
It has no effect on me in that regard.
My cardiologist would also like to know.
However mostly only excessive like a few cups or more per day.
Caffeine jacks up my muscle tone so the shoulders are cranked all kinds of ways. Afaik it also raises blood pressure, and is a diuretic. Ah, and of course it speeds up gut motility too.
It’s very slightly diuretic, but that effect is overshadowed by the fact that it’s 99% water. Coffee actually hydrates you.
That doesn’t matter if the doctor is trying to calculate some medicine dosage.
This meme made me wonder if smoked coffee exists. If it does, I wonder what that would taste like.
