Coffee: my friend and enemy

- Image via Wikipedia
Coffee is my best friend and my worse enemy. You might ask: How can it be possible?
Well, I love coffee and in working days I drink at least three a day. It is not regular coffee it is an express Portuguese coffee that is much stronger than those usually found in other countries.
I love the smell and the taste of coffee. It is good for some of my headaches and sometimes it makes my stress go away.
I could drink several coffees a day but coffee can be a real enemy for me. It causes me nausea, lack of appetite, high heartbeat and diarrhea. Lack of appetite is due to the nausea I feel a few minutes after drinking a coffee. My heartbeat just increases too much and I feel I will be having an heart attack. Regarding the diarrhea, sometimes it feels like I am taking Colonix and my bowels just get empty.
I can say that I shouldn’t drink coffee because there are more bad side effects than good ones but I love coffee and in the office, when someone goes to drink a coffee I can’t resist the smell of it.
