I never had a cup of coffee until I hit 30.
Now I drink daily because coffee is linked to:
Longer life expectancy
Less risk of type-2 diabetes
Less cognitive decline
Reduced risk of Alzheimer's & Parkinson's
Caffeine tolerance differs, but most benefits start at 2-3 cups/day.
What a very sad situation!
