Are there chemicals in freeze dried coffee?
There are plenty of crazy stories out there about chemicals added to freeze dried coffee. There is no reason for anything to be added to coffee when it is freeze dried; the entire point of freeze drying is that it preserves the product naturally. The process is: they make some coffee; they freeze it; they dry it.
In short, whatever chemicals are in freeze dried coffee are only those - and exactly the same as those - found in "fresh" coffee.

Because the caffeine is lost during the brewing process. But also during the brewing process, mass of the coffee bean (coffee seed to be technical about it) is reduced.

How long can you keep unopened instant coffee?
Coffee-Mate liquid will usually last 2-3 weeks after opening. If left unopened, it can be stored for several months in the fridge. You will know when the coffee mate has gone bad, because it will curdle, change color, or smell badly. You can usually tell when it is starting to go bad, well before this point because the creamer will not integrate with the coffee immediately, and will leave "rings" on top of the coffee until it is stirred in. However, it is still safe to consume at the "ring" stage. It can be stored even longer in the freezer, but this is not recommended as some separation of the product may occur after thawing.

What are the Advantages or disadvantages of black coffee?
he "Pros"
- Antioxidants. Coffee is loaded with antioxidants like chlorogenic acid and melanoidins. Antioxidants help prevent oxidation, a process that causes damage to cells and contributes to aging. Melanoidins from roasted coffee have antioxidative effects depending on the way the coffee is treated.
- Parkinson's disease. Regular coffee consumption reduces the risk of Parkinson's disease. A number of studies [1],[2] have demonstrated that people who drink coffee on a regular basis are significantly less likely to develop Parkinson's disease.
- Diabetes. Coffee consumption is potentially protective against the development of type 2 Diabetes. A prospective cohort study as part of the US Nurses Health Study found that moderate consumption of both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee may lower the risk of type 2 diabetes in younger and middle aged women.
- Liver cirrhosis. Coffee drinking may protect against liver cirrhosis, especially alcoholic cirrhosis.
- Gallstones. There is some evidence that coffee drinking may be protective against gallstone formation in both men and women.
- Kidney stones. Coffee consumption lowers the risk of kidney stones formation. Coffee increases the urine volume, preventing the crystallization of calcium oxalate, the most common component of kidney stones.
- Improved mental performance. Caffeine in coffee is a well-known stimulant. Coffee promotes alertness, attention and wakefulness. The cup of coffee can also increase information processing.
- Alzheimer's disease. Regular coffee consumption seems to protect against Alzheimer's disease. Recent mousestudyshowed that caffeine equivalent to 5 cups of coffee per day reduced the build up of destructive plaques in the brain.
- Asthma. Caffeine in coffee is related to theophylline, an old Asthma medication. Caffeine can open airways and improve asthma symptoms.
- Caffeine safety. In 1958, caffeine was placed on the Food and Drug Administration's list as generally recognized as safe (GRAS).
The "Cons"
- Heart disease. The relation between coffee consumption and risk of cardiovascular disease has been examined in many studies, but the results remain controversial. Most prospective cohort studies have not found coffee consumption to be associated with significantly increased cardiovascular disease risk.
On one hand, diterpenes cafestol and kahweol present in unfiltered coffee and caffeine each appear to increase risk of coronary Heart disease. High quality studies have confirmed the cholesterol-raising effect of diterpenes. Coffee consumption is also associated with an increase of plasma homocysteine, a risk factor for coronary heart disease.
On the other hand, a lower risk of heart disease among moderate coffee drinkers might be due to antioxidants found in coffee.Besides that, caffeine can increase the risk of heart attack, especially among those people who carry the "slow" gene variant for the enzyme that metabolizes caffeine.
- Cholesterol. Heavy consumption of boiled coffee elevates blood total and LDL cholesterol ("bad cholesterol") levels. Unfiltered coffee contains two cholesterol-raising compounds cafestol and kahweol.
- Blood vessels. Coffee negatively affects the blood vessel tone and function (increases arterial stiffness and wave reflections).
- Heart rhythm disturbances. Coffee can cause rapid or irregular heartbeats (cardiac arrhythmias).
- Blood pressure. Although coffee consumption is not a significant risk factor for hypertension, it produces unfavorable effects on blood pressure and people prone to hypertension may be more susceptible. Recent Italian study found that coffee drinking can slightly increase the risk for development of sustained hypertension in persons with elevated blood pressure.
- Osteoporosis. Coffee intake may induce an extra urinary excretion of calcium. Heavy coffee consumption (4 cups=600 ml or more) can modestly increase the risk of osteoporosis, especially in women with a low calcium intake.
- Heartburn. A cup of coffee can trigger heartburn.
- Sleep. Most of us are aware of the stimulatory effects of caffeine. High amounts of caffeine taken before going to sleep, can cause restlessness and difficulty falling asleep, tendency to be awakened more readily by sudden noises, and a decreased quality of sleep. However, some people can drink coffee and fall right asleep.
- Dehydration. The caffeine in coffee is a mild diuretic and can increase urine excretion. This effect may be easily neutralized by drinking an extra glass of water.
- Dependence. Caffeine is a drug, a mild central nervous system stimulant, and it produces dependence. Caffeine withdrawal is a real syndrome. You may get a few days of headache and irritability if you choose to quit drinking coffee, however, it is relatively easy to break this habit, and most people are not addicted to caffeine.

Another opinion:
Snorting coffee grounds puts those coffee grounds in your lungs and in your sinuses. Coffee grounds do not belong in those places and there is no way to know what harm you may be doing to your lungs and sinuses, plus you might end up with a very severe headache from the caffeine going directly into your bloodstream. When you drink coffee, the caffeine goes into your bloodstream much more slowly. But when you snort it, the tissues in your nose allow things to enter your bloodstream much more quickly.
