If it is just coffee, I'm OK.

I seem to remember a study that showed nicotine was also helpful in curbing Alzheimers...

My father didn't drink much coffee, but it wasn't too long after he quit smoking that he was diagnosed with Alzheiners...

Sorry to hear about your dad.

When I was a smoker, I used to cling to the positive brain effects. Supposedly it helped you on tests if you kept your nicotine level the same as when you were studying.

I got duped, though. Smoking might have some slight Alzheimer benefit, but it's more likely it will kill you dead before you can get to that age. I'm sorry I ever smoked. Hope that I quit in time.
