COFFEE is BAD FOR YOU......and causes RAGE
IT’S the new medical menace brewing across Britain.

Feeling angry, irritable and aggressive. Plagued by thumping headaches? You could be experiencing . . . coffee rage.

It’s no storm in a tea cup either. Thousands of people are victims, say doctors, with Hugh Grant and Robbie Williams among the most well-known sufferers.

It seems a cup of what you fancy is fast becoming a recipe for disaster thanks to its main active ingredient caffeine — a strong stimulant.

And it’s no surprise the problem is on the rise, with coffee shops now Britain’s fastest-growing retail business.

There are already more than 3,000 on the High Street, clocking up sales of £1.3billion a year — and experts say those numbers will DOUBLE by 2017.

As a nation, we polish off 70million cups of coffee a day, and health specialists YorkTest reckon as many as one in 20 of us has an intolerance to it.

Tell-tale signs include itchy skin, joint pains, depression, tiredness and migraines and usually occur within an hour of drinking a cup — and it is these symptoms which can lead to coffee rage.

The problem takes many forms. Hollywood star Hugh admits: “I get coffee rage. It comes after drinking Nescafe. It’s the world’s most delicious coffee but I get foul — really foul — an hour later.” Chart-topper Robbie went into rehab in February as his habit reached 36 espressos a day.

He was also drinking caffeine-rich Red Bull as well.

No wonder friends say he was getting crotchety.

yep coffee is acid and hot and yang and that is bad for hot tempers...

try green tea if you need a caffeine fix.. sweeten with maple syrup if you need sugar... this is alkaline, cool and feminine, alkaline, soothing and relaxing for your bad temper..

Re: COFFEE is BAD FOR YOU......and causes RAGE
Just had a cuppa coffee...

NOW im all fired up for a DOOOM RAAAANT!!!!

FUCK ME im sick of this useless planet.

Every time you turn on th TV its just more SHIT..another death..another bobmbing...anothet illuminti plot to wipe us out.


Then you got religion one fighting religion two...republicans fighting dems...labour fighting liberal...commo's fighting capitalists...and everybody just ITCHING to wipe some poor cunt out just because they felt like it.

THEN you got fags raving on about their right to stick their cocks up other mens bums and call it NORMAL....and the fucks want the right to raise kids in their own fucked in the bumhole image.


Then youve got all the new age peace and love dimwits who for some strange reason think we are entering a time of light and happiness..FUCK ME!!!!..I WISH I had some of the drugs THEY are pumping.

Then you got all these DOOM predictors...TRYING with ALL THEIR MIGHT to WISH just ONE of their predictions of DOOM to happen..MORE power too them..at least they KNOW we are fucked...they just want to speed things up a bit.

Then you got the muslims...a peaceful religion thats only downfall is they want to KILL in ANY way they can ALL who wont bend over and take it up the bumhole by their peace loving god ALLA!

Then you got the buddhists...and..well...then you got the buddhists.

Then you got the oil tycoons..dedicated to KILLING us all and making a tidy profit by doing so.

Then you got BUSH..that twisted brain dead retarded CLONE..that slimy shitstain darkening the toilet floor of the human race...trying with all his might to stir up the angry mob...the angry ants...and then complaining when they DARE to threaten him back..WHAT a fuckhead..I tell ya..THIS world is so fucking DOOOOOOOMED!!!


Every day we read the news...soaking up the latest morsel of DOOM...we thrive on it.

Evry day you log onto GLP for another dose of depression...revelling in the strange feeling of impending desolation...the sweet smell of impending DOOM!

But WHY??

You know you are doomed...you know your future is stolen from you...you know deep down that your death and the deaths of millions of others is CERTAIN...and certain SOON!

So why keep on going?...why do you even bother to buy a house...a car...slave your life away for what really amounts to just another chunk of landfill?

A splendid tomb paid for with your blood...somewhere for your rotting corpse to call home..for eternity.

SO DOOMED...no hope...no escape.

Striving...always striving...for LANDFILL!!! Everything ever built...throughout the centuries..gold...gems...palaces...humble dwellings..faught and killed for.

Dig down...its all there...as landfill.

Such will be the fate of anything you aquire...no matter HOW much you pay for it...its destiny is to be just another peice of shiny and expensive landfill rotting in a hole along with your corpse...forever.

Nothing mankind makes is destined to last...nothing we strive for is destined to go on...its all headed for a hole somewhere...to rot.

So...chase it with all your might...strive for the landfill...revolve your meaningless and brief life around mere material things that really amount to nothing but landfill looking for a hole to fester in...along with your corpse.

SO DOOOOMED!!!!

I heard an MD lecture years ago, that coffee is the only poison that we regularly put into our bodies that would kill us, if not for the remarkable reaction our bodies take to counter-act it.

He also said that coffee completely destroys any nutritional intake within an hour of it's ingestion.



As in all things, balance is key; too much/too little of anything will kill you.

only cigarette smokers should have a moderate amount off caffeine, because they metabolize it much faster and are more tolerant to it, due to CYP1A2 induction caused by smoking.

Re: COFFEE is BAD FOR YOU......and causes RAGE
I guess the rage has nothing to do with the state of public transport, overcrowded trains, opporessive constant police presence, constant announcements about how there are pick pockets, thieves, beggars, people wanting to stick exploding food in your bag, unattended articles are likely to be removed blah blah blah ... nothing to do with the overcrowded pavements and the work hours drawing on for longer and longer. Nothing to do with the noise pollution and the permanent smell of urine and blobs of chewing gum on the pavement. No it has nothing to do with inflation, debt concerns, relationship meltdowns and the asbo kids threatening and menacing the fearful and victimised. Sure its got nothing to do with the fact that no matter how much money the taxpayer pumps into the NHS its just misappropriated and Brits have had to resort to DIY dentistry because NHS dentists are as scarce as hens' teeth. Not withstanding the remaining state of the system, the people that gain a raise in benefots every 9 or ten months as sprog after sprog is dropped into the bosom of society.

Nothing to do with any of that and more .... because its all about the coffee.
