Video - The Coffee Ugliness Myth

Did you know that in the 18th century, it was believed that drinking coffee could make you ugly? People thought that coffee consumption would lead to a pale and haggard complexion. In fact, King Gustav III of Sweden was so convinced of this belief that he conducted a bizarre experiment. He sentenced twin brothers to death - one was to drink three pots of coffee a day, and the other was to drink three pots of tea. The tea-drinking brother outlived the coffee-drinker, and the King declared the experiment a success. So, next time you reach for your cup of coffee, just remember - beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
