Women who drink two or more cups of coffee a day are less likely to get depressed, research suggests.

It is not clear why it might have this effect, but the authors believe caffeine in coffee may alter the brain's chemistry. Decaffeinated coffee did not have the same effect.

Hi Pine and mlg,
you know after reading this I went and got one of those poles you see in the hospitals with the bags of fluid on them, got me a can of coffee put a hose in it and stuck it in my arm, I walked around for days and nothing so I went back to your post and realized why.....................it's only in women that it helps depression,..... sorry I couldn't help it :roll:
I would do this and more if I thought it would help but being a coffe drinker all my life I don't see it doing much other than giving me bad breath and burning my tongue rofl

We don't need coffee just the good Lord and each other to make us smile and you two make me smile just knowing you *hug*

God loves you both and so do I!!

Hey try this....if you love coffee...stop drinking it....see if you don't feel a little depressed then make a pot of coffee and watch your mood lift. *BigGrin* Coarse that only works for those who are coffee lovers.

you know 5 or 10 years ago yes I could not function without my coffee in the morning and it had to be instant maxwell house or nescaffe and I had to have real milk and sugar in it or I wouldn't drink it, I finally got to where I would drink other types and kind and soon would drink it with creamer and even some sweetners.
Now I would rather have my coffee but I could get away without it if I have something in it's place, I guess I'm getting old and sea nile rofl ok ok senile

But yes I would be a little depressed *BigGrin*
God bless
