Alzheimers is a terrible disease
5 cups a day seems like a lot though, i dont even ***** any coffee at all

 

[vaasta1987]

I ***** 5 cups or more a day. But let's be realistic, Alzheimer is genetical for the most part, theres never been a case in my ******, so in the end im worse of ******** 5 cups.

 

[Perilypos]

We've never had Alzheimer's disease in my ****** and I believe that this is a stronger reason why my chance to have it is not big than the fact that I am a notorious coffee drinker, but one more reason to enjoy the delicious taste of strong coffee is always welcome.

Studies like this are effectively worthless.Whatever a study finds there'll be another one along in a while which tells you the opposite.It's because people compare two sets of figures regardless of other factors.

I do ***** coffee, but only the genuine article (not the 'instant' crap

Marquis beat me to it. This ^ was basically what I was going to say.

That's why I smoke cigarettes...if nothing else,they're a cure for Alzheimers....they'll **** me long before it would.

How would they remember to make a cup...?

Now that was a pretty good article:hatsoff:

Alzehimers Disease is a multi-factorial disease and both genetic and environmental factors contribute to the development of the disease.

So what kind of coffee, Starbuck, McDonald, Second Cup, Mister Coffee, Tim Horton or instant coffee ?

There was a lovely Matt cartoon in the Telegraph once with a lot of elderly protesters chanting "What do we want?" "Why are we here?"

I wouldnt place too much emphasis on the the studies, these were after all conducted on mice and not men! Yes there is potential in the findings, but how much medical study is conducted showing encouraging results in lab rats and then when piloted on people does not turn out to be quite so marked. They will be starting to conduct testing on people, may take some time before they really can find out if it is a real benefit or not for sufferers

{Conspiracy theory#1. High price of cocoa beans on the world market/bad weather/shortage of beans....clever marketing ploy??:shock:

I'm around 5 a day, but then they say that much can cause you other problems with your heart and such. You can't win.

 

[Wainkerr99]

Weell, this isn't coffee, but it looks like we are getting there ito a cure, slowly but surely. Just thought I'd let you know. My ****** is one of the victims.

What people forget is that the Brain is a muscle, just like the rest of the muscles in your body.

If you dont use it, you will lose it.

Keep your mind active just like you did when you was 18 years old.

If you look at these old people with Alzeimers, they ldont have active lives before getting the condition.

 

[CunningStunts]

I'm glad I ***** a pot of coffee a day... and I agree with BB1970, studies show seniors that remain active, physically and mentally, retain more brain function than those who don't.
