Coffee - Is This Another Good Reason to Drink It?

Jump to Comments

     I am always up for a good article on the benefits of coffee.  I love coffee in the morning and I love reading about the benefits coffee, or more specifically in this case, caffeine, can produce.  Leslie Baumann, M.D.recently wrote an article outlining how caffeine can improve your skin.  It seems caffeine has been used in topical ointments for years to help constrict blood vessels near the surface of the skin, this has proven useful in people who have problems with facial flushing or who suffer from rosacea.  It has also been used to minimize redness and puffiness around the eyes.

      Now there is new research showing how drinking caffeine may reduce damage to the skin from the sun and may even show some benefit in the fight against skin cancer.

     I have just one thing to add Wahoo!
