    Quite a lot, although it generally has a tea bag and milk in it.

    I start the day with coffee for several reasons. Im only aware of positive effects!
    Ever since i heard most humans drink far too less water I tried to drink more daily. Probably not get to 2 liters a day which is what is advised.
    Coffee doesn't count as these 2 liters of water help as a filter and coffee is one of those substances that your body needs to filter :p

    I have also read that starting the day with coffee can mess with your body's circadian rhythm and it is best to wait an hour or two after waking before consuming any caffeine.

    If I waited an hour or two before coffee I would miss 2-3 hours of excruciating pain every day... What good is that?

    But caffeine negates the beneficial effect of the water as caffeine dehydrates the body.

    You need to find out because it might be on the test.

    is it multiple choice? i'm usually really good at guessing which option makes the most sense, whether i actually know the answer or not.

    I'm not saying. It could be the essay question.

    Its an old wive's tale that caffeine dehydrates you. Whether you drink water or coffee a significant percentage of the fluid will pass right through your body without doing a damned bit of good and caffeine merely bumps it up a bit. To counter the effect all you have to do is drink more coffee which is why nobody has shriveled up and died from drinking coffee all day.

    The real problem with both caffeine and alcohol is they inhibit your body's ability to get rid of heat for day.

    10 gallons, which I most often evacuate through my anus.
     
  16. I can't say how many exactly, but it's a lot.

    water is good stuff. unless maybe if you're standing in the middle of where a whole bunch of it is getting ready to go.
    how much do i drink of it? i don't keep track. but you know, most consumable liquids are in an aquious solution of some kind anyway.
    but just water by itself, with whatever is in it when it comes out of the tap, certainly more then any other liquid thing of any kind.

    Its just doctors attempting to justify the money they charge and encourage people to believe whatever they tell them. Coffee also happens to help prevent colon cancer and other forms of cancer, but the A.M.A. doesn't make money by preventing disease unless its of epidemic proportions and a threat to their very existence. That's also why they required fifty years to admit smoking causes lung cancer despite their own studies because when money does all the driving nobody is steering. Unlike most professions, the only thing regulating the medical profession is themselves and the banks which is why the HMOs have taken over.
