I must be pulling your leg, right? To be honest, I am not quite convinced about this piece of news, but it is just too good not to share. According to new research (we have new studies ALL THE TIME, don’t we?), there is something in dark brewed coffee that can help stomach problems.

This is what The Med Guru says:

People who were earlier forced to resist the much-desired morning coffee cup due to the fear of stomach pain can now have it without another thought, claimed the study.

“This discovery is going to help a lot of people who suffer from coffee sensitivity. As coffee-lovers, we’re very excited about this research,” said Dr. Veronika Somoza from the University of Vienna in Austria, and Dr. Thomas Hofmann, from the Technische Universitat Munchen in Germany, who conducted the study.

Don’t get me wrong – I am very much in support of the idea behind the study, but my experience does not seem to agree with the findings. I have a very acidic stomach, and it just gets worse whenever I have too much coffee. And, yes, I do drink black brewed coffee for the most part. As much as I love coffee, I have to admit that I have had to cut back so many times due to the stomach problems.

They say it’s all about this component:

The study found that the components that triggered molecular mechanism of acid production in the stomach cells were caffeine, catechols and N-alkanoly-5-hydroxytryptamides.

The finding revealed that there wasn’t one single irritant, but a mixture of compounds that caused the irritant property of coffee.

Moreover, one of the components, N-methylpyridium (NMP), helped in stagnating the production of hydrochloric acid by the stomach cells, which can reduce stomach irritation.

The darker roasted coffee beans contain almost twice the amount of NMP than the raw coffee beans. The level of NMP in the beans depends on the roasting method and the natural variety of the bean, revealed the researchers.

I guess it’s now a question of making sure that we get the component, isn’t it?

And you’re telling me that NOW? I know, this kind of news is simply not welcome at certain times. While we’re in the middle of Lent, a lot of people are actually practicing abstinence of one sort or another. No need to talk about food, right?

Sorry, I can’t help but share the results of this recent study that I just read about. According to the article, fatty food and junk food are addictive; and this includes items like coffee, sugar, and meat. More:

Paul Kenny at Scripps Research Institute in Jupiter, Fla and colleagues also found when junk addictive foods like bacon, sausage, pound cake, and candy bars were removed from their diet, the rats went on a hunger strike – they did not eat anything for two weeks.
Furthermore, the researchers discovered that eating the addictive food literally changed brain chemistry by suppressing the dopamine D2 receptor in the brain’s reward system, leading to compulsive eating.
The study suggests that the tasty junk foods may play a big role in the national obesity epidemic.

Seriously, people. Get a life! We know that we get addicted to food. We know that certain people get addicted more easily. But, we also know that we can’t live without coffee. So what do you expect us to do?

You know what I was thinking? If the researchers keep it up, we just might have organizations for coffee addicts in the next several years. We might even have programs that will help people get off of their coffee addiction. Oh how sad.
