I've drank quite a few more than just 3, so I'm basically indestructible

...what kind of cup? Does a Crema + double Espresso count as one or as three?

I choose to believe all the studies that say coffee is healthy and none that say it is not. I won’t change my coffee drinking habits regardless, so best think positively?

Coffee, wine, chocolate... it feels like every day there's a new study showing how they're either great for you or how they're giving you cancer.

They've been saying coffee prevents heart disease for decades. Why do they keep putting studies out that make it seem like this is a new discovery?

than just perking you up

It doesn't, if you're a regular drinker. Rather, you get withdrawal symptoms at morning.

Correlation != Causation

I drink coffee but I put no faith in this reports that always seem to go one way or another. Just drink it in moderation. It wasn't that long ago a glass of wine a day was considered healthy too.

I'm 4 times healthier than this, apparently.

It’s also linked to me having an anxiety attack before the day is done. Talking from experience.

I look forward to a solution to whatever disease causes people to try and talk to me before I've had my coffee.

Paid for by business of the North Part of the world...... c'mon guys! Vitamin D and coffee!

tl;dr: Cardiometabolic multimorbidity is the co-occurrence of two or three cardiometabolic diseases, including diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. This study found that habitual coffee or caffeine intake, especially at a moderate level, was associated with a lower risk of new-onset CM.

Seems like a bit of a reach. Habitual caffeine intake means that you won't get both diabetes and a stroke? I'm not convinced this is useful information.

Per day***

The headline makes it seem like it's per lifetime or something.

Caffeine gives me brain-destroying headaches if I just drink a single cup a day for a month or two. Inevitably. I've tried to be a coffee drinker a half-dozen times in the past few years because I love the pep I get from caffeine, and every single time, eventually I end up slowly pacing in a dark, quiet room - because even sitting down makes the pain unbearable - wishing the world would end so my head would stop throbbing.

I guess I just wasn't drinking enough?

Yes yes, studies show this, studies show that. And they all contradict each other, especially if you just wait a few years for things to come full circle.

It's gotten to a point where I just don't believe them any more.

Maybe coffee does in some circumstances with some people have a link to preventing diseases. Or maybe not.

We've seen, and will continue to see, well researched scientific studies that argue both sides of this, until the end of history.

Believe whatever makes you feel better, that's all you can do, really.

I drink 6... Is that twice as good?

I remember when "studies said" a glass of wine each day (week?) is good for your health.

I wonder if some of the positive affect is due to the temporary increase of blood pressure which may flex the walls of the veins and so forth.

That's about caffeine, not coffee exactly, also beware studies that say 'might'.

Considering that coffee is probably the highest source of antioxidants in a person's diet, there will be some health benefits. Just dont add dairy milk to it, or it will blunt absorption. Soy milk is fine.

But if you're an overweight, overworked, stress filled couch potato who doesn't exercise and eats poorly, then you're health is screwed regardless of how much coffee you drink 😂

Well...I drink decaf. The internet seems to think coffee=caffeine. I can never find info about drinking decaf coffee.

Also makes you awake for most of the nights.
