I’ve been drinking coffee since I was a young adult, but it seems no matter how much I drink, I won’t gain any memory benefits from my caffeine intake. But women do:
Researchers found that women age 65 and older who drank more than three cups of coffee (or the equivalent in tea) per day had less decline over time on tests of memory than women who drank one cup or less of coffee or tea per day.
A good, possible memory aid for older women, and, as the researchers note, caffeine is relatively harmless as a substance.
Researchers are not sure why no similar positive effect was found in men.

Coffee puts the system under the strain of metabolizing a deadly acid-forming drug, depositing its insoluble cellulose, which cements the wall of the liver, causing this vital organ to swell to twice its proper size. In addition, coffee is heavily sprayed. (Ninety-two pesticides are applied to its leaves.) Diuretic properties of caffeine cause potassium and other minerals to be flushed from the body.
