"Researchers have found strong evidence that coffee reduces the risk of several serious ailments, including diabetes, heart disease and cirrhosis of the liver."

If you are a regular coffe drinker and attempt to avoid coffee you could experience a severe headache. The more you avoid coffee the more the severity of the headache (be warned.)
