„Thanks to these properties, asthma patients can benefit from regularly drinking beverages that have caffeine, especially coffee. Even smokers who do not suffer from lung disease, as well as patients suffering from chronic pulmonary obstruction, can benefit from drinking coffee, since it increases alveolar ventilation.“

„There is no evidence that drinking beverages that have either high or low caffeine content causes any harm whatsoever to the cardiovascular system in normal individuals or even those suffering from cardiovascular disease. Studies carried out over a 12-month period in the United States (the Framingham study) showed no correlation between coffee consumption and cardiac or coronary diseases such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction or sudden death.“

„For example, caffeine may stay in the body of pregnant women for up to 3 times as long as is usual in adults, whereas smokers eliminate caffeine twice as quickly as non-smokers. This may help to explain why women often feel more sensitive to coffee in the latter stages of pregnancy, or why heavy smokers are usually heavy coffee drinkers as well. Some of the effects of caffeine, such as those on the heart and blood vessels, are contradictory and have no net effect - others may only be noticeable when regular consumers suddenly cut out caffeine. The body can become habituated to caffeine so that regular users are less sensitive to the stimulant effects than others.“

„Bacteria, you see, can’t live without theophylline – a compound produced by caffeine breakdown in coffee and tea plants and, incidentally, used to treat asthma. Coffee plants synthesize caffeine very quickly, but break down theophylline very slowly. So, if bacteria are presented with caffeine, which they can’t use, they’ll naturally try to kick the living theophylline out of it.“

„Coffee drinking has been implicated because it has been suggested that caffeine, which is naturally occurring in tea, coffee, and chocolate and added to cola and some energy type beverages, causes calcium excretion which in turn results in weakened bones.“
