Overdose of Coffee Causes Hallucination....

"More than a glass of coffee a day will cause you to hallucinates...."

I heard this statement over the radio recently.... and of coz, me, being a coffee-addict, I was "surprise-or-shocked".... though I should not be.

I know for a fact that Coffee or rather caffeine is bad for health, but never did I expect it to have the "ability" of causing us, "THE ADDICTS" to be HALLUCINATE......

"People who drink too much coffee could start seeing ghosts or hearing strange voices, UK research has suggested." reported BBC News.... (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7827761.stm)

'Visions link' to coffee intake

Besides coffee, caffeine is found in tea, energy drinks and chocolate

People who drink too much coffee could start seeing ghosts or hearing strange voices, UK research has suggested.

But then, on their other reports, which I find "contradicting", such as below....

"Caffeine may help older women ward off mental decline"... (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/6930114.stm)

"Coffee and exercise save skin"... (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/6919249.stm)

So, is coffee good or bad....? More harm than good?
I think my own conclusion is : Take it moderately ( I guess 3 cups a day are not too bad, right??)

Okay, I admit..... I am HARD-CORE-COFFEE-ADDICT!

But I am trying to QUIT.... or REDUCE.... STILL TRYING.....
