Coffee prices skyrocket after Brazil drought, CNN Money: #Nurseup #Nursefriendly #Nurselife #Economy #Inflation

Coffee prices skyrocket after Brazil drought, CNN Money:"Coffee prices have doubled since late last year, and drinkers of the black stuff may soon start to notice.
The culprit: a severe drought in Brazil, the origin of roughly a third of the world's coffee.
The dry spell has wreaked havoc on this year's harvest of Arabica beans, which are used for the vast majority of global coffee production."

Coffee, sex, smog can all trigger heart attack, study finds, USAToday

A major analysis of data on potential triggers for heart attacks finds that many of the substances and activities Americans indulge in every day — coffee, alcohol, sex, even breathing — can all help spur an attack.

Because so many people are exposed to dirty air, air pollution while stuck in traffic topped the list of potential heart attack triggers, with the researchers pegging 7.4% of heart attacks to roadway smog.

But coffee was also linked to 5% of attacks, booze to another 5%, and pot smoking to just under 1%, the European researchers found.

Among everyday activities, exerting yourself physically was linked to 6.2% of heart attacks, indulging in a heavy meal was estimated to trigger 2.7%, and sex was linked to 2.2%.

The researchers stressed that the risk for heart attack from any one of these factors to a particular person at any given time is extremely small. But spread out over the population, they can add up

The Java Jitters: Should Your Child Drink Coffee? - St. Louis Children's Hospital

As you’re standing in line for a latte, your 10-year-old child pipes in, “Can I have one, too?” While you drink it for the caffeine boost, coffee—including the fancy, frothy coffee drinks—may not be good for kids.

The symptoms of caffeine consumption are the same in adults and children. Nervousness, headaches and trouble sleeping associated with caffeine intake can have an effect on kids.

“We don’t recommend that children drink coffee,” says Tara Todd, registered dietitian at St. Louis Children’s Hospital. “Many children already drink too many caffeinated beverages. By adding coffee and sugar-filled coffee drinks to that equation, they’re not drinking milk and water and may not get enough of the vitamins and health benefits those drinks provide.”

Set the Stage to Be Caffeine Free
Parents should set rules for children regarding appropriate beverages throughout the day. That means kids ages 9 and older should drink the recommended four servings of milk per day before having a caffeinated beverage.

“Discuss with your child what he or she drinks outside of the house,” says Todd. “Don’t cut out caffeinated beverages all at once, as he or she may experience adverse side effects. But be sure to monitor how many calories and how much caffeine your kids are drinking each day.”
