Study Shows Alcohol & Coffee Leads To Longer Life


According to a new study, I'm going to live forever.

Well, almost.

According to ABC7 in Chicago, a new University of California-Irvine study indicates that "consumption of moderate amounts of alcohol and coffee is linked to living a longer life."

The caveat here is that one little word, “moderate.

“The 90+ Study,” begun in 2003, looked into the habits and lifestyles of 1,700 nonagenarians -referred to as “the oldest-old” age group - to determine "what is key to living to your 90th birthday and beyond."

Study Shows Drinking Coffee Makes For A "Stronger" Penis


A new study done at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston says 2-3 cups of coffee a day could keep the erectile dysfunction (ED) doctor away.

Men over the age of 20 who took doses of caffeine equal to 2-3 cups of coffee were less likely to have ED problems than those who did not partake in the stimulant.

Men who were overweight seemed to benefit most. Caffeine acts as a stimulant similar to ED drugs like Cialis or Viagra which kickstart blood flow and cause arteries in the penis to relax.

Guess What's In Your Favorite Holiday Coffee Drinks


Did you know that a Grande Eggnog Latte has the saturated fat of about 2 1/1 glazed donuts? That's 60% of your daily saturated fat. (Insert sad trombone sound here...)

Check out this video from AOL that kind of spills the beans on your favorite holiday coffee drinks. Here's just a bit of the 411:

• A grande Eggnog Latte = the saturated fat of about 2.5 glazed donuts
• A grande Chestnut Praline Latte = the sugar of 15 Hershey's kisses
• A grande Peppermint Mocha = the sugar of 21 Hershey's kisses
• A grande Gingerbread Latte = the sugar of over 10.5 Jolly Ranchers

Yikes!!!

I'm a regular coffee guy myself.
