I linked pain in my joints to excessive windsurfing exercise.
Now I found real culprit
www.livestrong.com/article/281039-coffee-joint-pain/
Time to switch to something else : beer or green tea ?
Livestrong highlighting the dangers of coffee .
Well there's an irony right there.
Didn't mention EPO or growth hormones?
Macro that link is balanced and cites its sources (they are even proper studies)

"Heliovaara's study couldn't identify if caffeine in the coffee or something else potentially caused the increase in rheumatoid factor."
All i'm going to say about that article is Correlation does not mean causation
By all means you should try getting off it for a while but I'll wager it will make no difference.
You are sore because you are getting old, welcome to the world.
Coffee is pretty awful period, one of the worst smells i can think of.
I have to stand in the cue of zombies at the airport asking for these daft long black skinny short double and with a hit of slap me my jeans are far to skinny and my hair looks stupid........
cue the many many many red flags while i make a cup of tea.

There ya go. Your wish is granted. G'warn red me back!
I hate tea.
I hate western tea because y'all are like those stinky smoker assholes, always slacking off to ingest that foul smelling muck.
I hate green tea because they're always banging on about the mystical health benefits and how it tastes so good when it actually tastes like muddy grass clippings.
The truth is that I would love one of those big arse coffee machines with the pipes and bits but what can in use it for ?
The idea of coffee is great it's just the end result is not.

Um... making good coffee? 
Everything in moderation. Eat healthily, binge only here and there, junk out occasionally and maintain a healthy schedule of exercise and you could have anything.

I'm a rare species in my early 30's.
No coffee, and no tea. They both taste sh!t. I don't get it.

Agreed^^^ hmmmmmm, dam a sign from above!!!!!
Doh, I love my morning coffee but must admit its a bit hard on the tummy and Iv had inflammation for years. Been treating myself with Prednisolone the most dangerous drug a doctor can prescribe for ya for treating inflammation. Plus I keep hearing about aspartame being bad too, dam it iv changed so much in my diet over the years and I'm still not a 100% fark we are what we eat! I'm going to end up a herb tea hippy drinking health nut! but gee your health is all you own...
If I gave up coffee,,, where else would I get dressed up in Lycra and ride my bike too .......????
well lot-o that explains why middle aged men in licra are such a pest on the roads,
they be coffee drugged, and in a world of their own making 
'GET OFF THE ROAD YA MUGS' 
I think a lot of tea's have caffeine in them as well , caffeine the most underestimated (wrong word ) strongest Addictive drug we advertise/sell to our children.
I love my coffee but am very aware of the effect it has
Tea has a lot of fluoride and can easily take you over your RDI of fluoride makeing your bones brittle by increasing your calcium uptake
I love a good cup of tea
Beer contains alcohol makes me drunk and I fall over and scrap my knees, face and arms on the gutter and the vomiting hurts my tummy
mmmm love a ice cold beer
Water! well people drown in water ,Water contains sharks ENOUGH SAID!!!

I'm with you on that one, Coffee makes me gag real bad. Hate the small, hate the taste. Nothing worse than having a coffee drinker dip the wet coffee crusted spoon in the clean white sugar. How to ruin a good cuppa Tea.
Dexies got me past year 12. Now caffeine is getting me past my CA.
Dexies are better, but yeah.... not a fan of the side effects of dexies.

Coffee machines are a pain in the ass. Plungers are the way to go.
Might as well add it to the list of things that can potential be bad for me that I enjoy and will continue to do so.
If your worried about it water decaffeinated coffee is good but lacks a certain punch.

we are a rare pair. to me a straight black is like drinking a liquid cigarette
Coffee's been good for me recently: www.google.com/search?q=LON:COFF&tbm=fin
Mind you I bought end of 2012... so...
Coffee actually has a lot of health benefits of course when used in moderation, not to mention it makes you more productive.
I love the flavor of coffee, especially in ice cream
Personally I drink it only occasionally, I drink matcha green tea every morning instead, it has purported health benefits and it's less harsh on the system.
If coffee makes your stomach sour there is low acid instant coffee available.
