1．Coffee is one of the most popular drinks around the world．There are different types of coffee．Experts claim that there are more flavors of coffee than there are of wine．Coffee contains caffeine，an element（成分）that raise our awareness，keeps us from falling asleep or simply gives us kick in the morning or after lunch．
But experts are still undecided on how healthy coffee is．For a long time doctors have told people not to drink too much coffee，because it may lead to heart problems，high blood pressure，insomnia and headaches．
Scientists have now found out that it is the quality of coffee and the way it is brewed（冲泡） that holds the key to our health．Elderly people in Greece live longer than normal．Among other things，this is linked to the consumption of a strong brew of coffee．Experts also point out that different roasts and types of coffee beans have different effects on our health．
A new study by a Harvard research group says that there is no link between coffee and health problems．Drinking several cups of coffee a day is not connected with heart diseases．Doctors，however，warn against drinking too much coffee，as it can lead to stomach problems．
Coffee has many advantages，as the new study suggests．While alcohol makes people sleepy and slow-moving，coffee makes them feel dynamic．Getting together for a cup of coffee a day is not connected with heart diseases．
Although a lot still needs to be uncovered about coffee，it seems to reduce the risk of cancer and diabetes．Reporters show that people who drink coffee may develop Parkinson's disease later in life，or maybe not at all．
