If a recent study is any indication, coffee drinkers are better off guzzling the brewed beans by the gallon, rather than drinking a mere cup or two a day.
According to a study in the September issue of Epidemiology, people who drink only an occasional cup of coffee may be at a higher risk of of hearth attack than heavy drinkers.
The statistics are rather startling and should either scare a number of us off the ground beverage for good, or send us off into a caffeine binge for our own safety.
Risk of heart attack rose 60 per cent in moderate coffee drinkers, defined as those who typically drink two or three cups a day.
The risk quadrupled for light coffee drinkers, who drink one cup or less than a cup per day.
The latest survey is just the latest in conflicting reports about the merits or lack there of for the main sustenance of many a Canadian.
Just remember that it’s good to the last drop as long as you’ve consumed many drops!
Geez, I wonder if the same principle holds for that other Canadian vice, smoking?
