Pain is a serious issue that hampers millions of Americans every year. Not only does it effect our qualify of life but it also lightens our wallets.

In 2010, it was estimated that the United States spent between $500 billion and $635 billion on the treatment of pain. To put these numbers in perspective, that same year $309 billion was spent treating heart disease, $243 billion was spent treating cancer, and $188 billion was spent treating diabetes.

THAT IS CRAZY! We spend more money on PAIN than heart disease, cancer, and diabetes combined.

But another recent study showed:

Mmmmm....Coffee

​I love coffee and feel like the day isn't right without having a cup....or four. 

I am always coming across articles that contradict each other about whether or not coffee is good you.  So, thankfully the folks at authoritynutrition.com (who do great work) wrote a post ending the confusion and backing it with science.

Here's their findings:
  • Coffee contains a small amount of some vitamins and minerals, which add up if you drink many cups per day. It is also high in antioxidants.
  • The main active compound in coffee is the stimulant caffeine. It can cause a short-term boost in energy levels, brain function, metabolic rate and exercise performance.
  • Studies show that coffee drinkers have a much lower risk of dementia, Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease in old age, significantly lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes, significantly lower risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer, lower risk of becoming depressed and are significantly less likely to commit suicide....essentially live longer.
  • Caffeine can have various negative effects, such as causing anxiety and disrupting sleep, but this depends greatly on the individual.  It is also an addictive substance. It can lead to tolerance and well documented withdrawal symptoms like headache, tiredness and irritability.
  • Decaffeinated coffee is made by extracting caffeine from the coffee beans using solvents. Decaf does not have all of the same health benefits as regular coffee.
  • It is important not to put sugar or a chemical-laden creamer in your coffee. Brewing with a paper filter can get rid of a cholesterol-raising compound called Cafestol.

So here's to coffee...and to you and me drinking it....a lot....everyday :)
