Should I avoid black coffee or is it okay to drink?

    Coffee is okay to drink, but it is an appetite depressant. You just have to make sure you are getting enough food in your day.

    Do you have a medical condition?

    I don't understand the question. For what reason do you think you may have to avoid it?

    Technically, caffeine can be an appetite suppressant, however if it were effective for weight loss a lot of us wouldn't be here. There's no reason, unless, like singingflutelady stated, you have a medical condition.

    I wish it were an appetite suppressant for me! I love my coffee, will never give it up.

    Another who doesn't understand why someone would think they should avoid this - unless you are limiting caffeine, but whether coffee is black or white wouldn't affect this.

    Of course if you are having black coffee with 4 sugars or somesuch, you need to count the calories - just like anything else you ingest.

    If you don't have a heart arrhythmia, there's no reason not to drink coffee and lots of health benefits to it.

    I drink it with half and half, no sugar. It adds 80-100 calories to my day. I make room for it because it is my absolute favorite food/beverage on the planet.
