Having already said that coffee is good for the brain, here is an alternative view, brought to you from the link at the top, which contains other information, too, should you be interested.
Caffeine
We often think of caffeine as a great pick-me-up, sharpening our minds and battling fatigue but new evidence suggests that rather than perking us up in the morning, what our 7am caffeine hit does is reduce the withdrawal symptoms from going without caffeine through the night. Caffeine aggravates stress by stimulating the production of adrenaline, which causes that jittery feeling. It also affects the quality of your sleep, making it harder to drop off. And research published in the American Journal of Psychiatry found that people who ingest caffeine levels equivalent to five cups of coffee per day have increased levels of anxiety and depression.
