I heard a report on TV recently saying that too much caffeine is bad for you. They admitted that some caffeine in the morning can help you jump start your day but warned against heavily caffeinated energy drinks and powdered caffeine added to Starbucks-type mixed coffee drinks. Such concentrated amounts of caffeine (the equivalent sometimes of 10-20 cups of coffee) can cause serious physical problems. All that was fine. I thought the concern was presented fairly but then they added this line at the end of the report: "While caffeine can help with weight loss, too much is not good for you." I have a feeling too many people only heard the bit about caffeine helping with weight loss and will choose to disregard the rest of the report.
Oh by the way, the white plastic bag is still hanging in the tree outside my window. At least eight weeks and counting.
