Hi There,
I know that coffee does deplete calcium from our bones if your drinking more then four cups a day. I understand that many A/S folks do develop Osteoporois, so I would think we need to be careful.
Take Care,
Janet

I sure hope not Maureen! My coffee in the morning really jump starts my day!  My favorite is Green Mountain, Rain Forest Nut.  I drink it black and I make it strong!  For me, I have no bad effects drinking coffee such as increased pain etc. however, Without coffee = -->  With coffee = -->  Here's a thread you might find interesting about coffee that was started back in Dec. in the NSD forum.  https://www.kickas.org/cgi-bin/w3t/showthreaded.pl?Cat=&Board=starch&Number=142017&page=&view=&sb=&o=&vc=1#Post142017peace & love  Kathy  "The most beautiful stones have been tossed by the wind and washed by the waters and polished to brilliance by life's strongest storms."

Hi Maureen I'm with John. I hope not I don't drink coffee. But I drink at least 10 cups of tea a day when I am working and prob. more when I am off. I am trying to cut down since I know caffeine is bad for the bones. So I guess in a way it is bad for AS .If it is something we like we know it isn't good for us don't we?? Take care Valerie 
Take care Valerie

I too have heard of caffiene being a prob with absorbtion of calcium. Even though I know this I drink very strong coffee. it gets me going and keeps you going!
