Greater intakes of both regular and decaffeinated coffee are associated with a decreased risk of kidney stone formation. Caffeinated coffee is significantly more effective in helping women avoid kidney stones than water, which is generally thought to have stone protective properties.
Studies have indicated that even people who are not fatigued show enhanced performance, including improved athletic performance, as well as greater alertness and efficiency as the result of coffee consumption. In addition to boosting alertness, coffee appears to enhance mood.
Coffee consumption seems to decrease the risk of suicide, reduce irritability and increase self-confidence and social skills. Coffee has been shown to help lift depression - even chronic depression.
