Coffee is a drug - a DRUG!

I'm going to seriously quit coffee, tea and even chocolate after reading this after I've failed countless times - http://www.wholevegan.com/coffee.html. Many of the symptoms in this article are true as they occurred to myself. I had headache several times (on the next day when I stopped coffee after many days of having  coffee) and one time it was the worst of the worst feeling like my head was fracturing and exploding, I had to took a leave from work.

Coffee is an addictive drug and makes you crave it for more once you drink it. And when you refrain from it, you get withdrawal (a drug-addict's bloody flux) symptoms. Any drug I believe is harmful to our body and mind. 

Coffee is actually not a substance that truly helps you recover from fatigue. Instead, it fools your mind and sense that it is not tired by over-stimulation. It doesn't do anything to help recover fatigue. As a result, the body takes toll of not resting when the person is supposed to, and if continued, lead to inevitable Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Fatigue is a built-in alarm system for body to let you know your body is ticking over too much and recharge is needed. Thus it is only right to eliminate the cause of fatiguenot to turn off the signal. The causes of fatigue? People are tired because of their nutrition, kinds of activity done, level of stress, time rested and slept.

 Strike at the real causes, not indulge in the harms of coffee, tea and chocolate.

Read this through and maybe it will inspire you as well: Coffee…What does it do to our body?http://www.wholevegan.com/coffee.html

3 Reasons to Stop Smoking

1. The environmental toll of tobacco farming is high.
Tobacco cultivation leads to deforestation and requires extremely poisonous pesticides.

2. It is a silent killer.
Tobacco makes you more prone to pneumonia, Tuberculosis - virtually any respiratory
infection. It makes you more likely to get cancer. Not just cancers you'd expect, like lung
and throat, but all kinds of cancer. It makes you more likely to get heart disease, the
primary killer of the developed world, and more susceptible to the often-deadly respiratory
infections of the developing world.

3. It tortures non-human beings.
Although health officials have known for decades that cigarette smoking leads to lung
cancer, emphysema, and other diseases, the tobacco industry, in a desperate bid to find
evidence to the contrary, still conducts painful experiments on dogs, cats, monkeys,
rabbits, chickens, rats, mice, and other non-humans animals.

At this very moment, pregnant monkeys's fetuses are exposed to nicotine, beagles' throats
are cut into holes and they are forced to breathe concentrated cigarette smoke for a year,
Dogs' penises are inserted with electrodes to measure the effect of cigarette smoke on
sexual performance, masks are trapped to the faces of rats and monkeys and permanently
restrain them to force them to breathe cigarette smoke constantly, dogs are forced to be
on mechanical ventilators and chronically exposed to cigarette smoke, rhesus monkeys are
restrained in chairs with head devices and exposing them to nicotine and caffeine to
determine how caffeine and nicotine affect breathing.
