Fun Fact: Coffee in the Brain

According to the BBC news, the caffeine in coffee can help protect our brains. There is a blood barrier that surrounds our brain to protect it from the chemicals that run around in the rest of our bodies. Caffeine seems to bolster the protection of the barrier. This study supports previous coffee studies that have indicated that a daily cup of coffee reduces the risks of developing Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. So if you remember the last college update, all we have to worry about now is coffee staining our teeth. Yeesh!
