A member asked:
Does coffee prevent food utilization or digestion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: I suppose if you consumed mass quantities of coffee there would be no time to consume anything else. In general it is simply a acidic fluid that contains various active chemicals that are absorbed passively in the gut. Other chemicals or nutrients are actively absorbed by the appropriate gut cells when present at the same time.
