Unit 34 Too Much of a Good Thing?
M: Hi, Jenny. Are you drinking coffee again?
W: Hi, Sam. This is my third cup.
M: Are you sure it’s all right to drink so much?
Don’t you think all that caffeine is bad for you?
W: No, that’s a misconception. Everyone thinks coffee
is bad for you, but it’s not.
M: Really?
W: According to an article I read, coffee can be
beneficial to your health.
M: That’s interesting. But you should remember
that one study does not prove much. There are
a lot of other studies out there, too.
W: This doctor in Italy found a lot of benefits.
M: Such as?
W: She says the chemicals in coffee can be good for
your heart and may relieve headaches, too.
M: I know that some coffee can be good sometimes,
but drinking too much is not beneficial. Coffee
has a lot of caffeine, which is addictive. It affects
your blood circulation and removes calcium
from your bones.
W: The doctor did admit that it is not for everyone,
and that you shouldn’t drink more than three
cups a day.
M: You seem nervous when you drink a lot. And
remember when you told me that you are not
sleeping well? Do you think that maybe you
should cut back?
W: I appreciate your concern. I was thinking of
cutting back. Would you like a cup of green tea?
