Sorry to read about coffee and effect on diabetics. So many people addict to coffee/tea to start their daily activity. Hope people may reduce or stop this in future.

Thanks.

During my travel in India I noticed coffee are sold in very small cup with boiled milk one mouth full in small shops. But in developed countries, developing countries the problem is pure coffee in large cups and also coffee machine at home to make strong coffee.

Italians do drink very strong coffee. In Malaysia the coffee is very strong and can give heart problems. Better stick to Sri Lanka black tea.

Yes. I had seen in USA any meeting or discussion, the people take a big cup coffee with little milk. The office secretary makes the filtered coffee in the machine.
