So Another

Coffee?

Well Maybe...

BUT here's another take on "coffee drinking can help you lose weight" For while research about caffeine and weight loss isn't definitive, researchers have several theories about how caffeine affects weight:

• Appetite suppression. Caffeine may reduce your desire to eat for a brief time, but there's not enough evidence to show that long-term consumption aids weight loss.
• Calorie burning. Caffeine may stimulate thermogenesis — one way your body generates heat and energy from digesting food. But this probably isn't enough to produce significant weight loss.
• Water loss. Caffeine acts as a diuretic, which means it increases the amount of urine you excrete. This water loss may temporarily decrease your body weight.

While you may be tempted to try caffeine to aid weight loss, keep in mind that caffeine's a stimulant and too much can cause nervousness, insomnia and other problems, says Katherine Zeratsky of the Mayor Clinic. Also, some caffeinated beverages, such as specialty coffees, are high in calories and fat. So instead of losing weight, you might actually gain weight.
