Moderate coffee consumption (3 drinks per day) is associated with lower risk (48.1%) of developing multiple cardiometabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease and stroke, finds a new study with over 500,000 participants aged 37-73 years.

I’ve linked to the press release in the post above. In this comment, for those interested, here’s the link to the peer reviewed journal article:

From the linked article:
Moderate coffee consumption is associated with lower risk of developing multiple cardiometabolic diseases
Consuming moderate amounts of coffee and caffeine regularly may offer a protective effect against developing multiple cardiometabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease and stroke, according to new research published in the Endocrine Society’s Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.
The study found that compared with non-consumers or consumers of less than 100mg caffeine per day, consumers of moderate amount of coffee (3 drinks per day) or caffeine (200-300 mg per day) had a 48.1% or 40.7% reduced risk for new-onset CM.
Ke and his colleagues based their findings on data from the UK Biobank, a large and detailed longitudinal dietary study with over 500,000 participants aged 37-73 years. The study excluded individuals who had ambiguous information on caffeine intake. The resulting pool of participants included a total of 172,315 individuals who were free of any cardiometabolic diseases at baseline for the analyses of caffeine, and a corresponding 188,091 individuals for the analyses of coffee and tea consumption.
Coffee and caffeine intake at all levels were inversely associated with the risk of new-onset CM in participants without cardiometabolic diseases. Those who reported moderate coffee or caffeine intake had the lowest risk, the study found. Moderate coffee or caffeine intake was inversely associated with almost all developmental stages of CM.
Yeah, but how does it affect the level of aggression or incontinence? (source: am coffee drinker).
I mean, this sort of research is beginning to feel like marketing by their respective lobbies.
I used to work for a PR agency and one project was legit the promotion of white sugar through “scientific research”.
TLDR: I don’t trust research linking dietary decisions to positive outcomes.
>“Consuming three cups of coffee, or 200-300 mg caffeine, per day might help to reduce the risk of developing cardiometabolic multimorbidity in individuals without any cardiometabolic disease,”
Is it the coffee or will any caffeine work?
When they say “coffee drink”… are they talking about over sweet “beverage” one gets in Starbucks… or nice Italian espresso?
I only do decaf. I am immortal as well?
Regularly consuming an appetite suppressant reduces your chances of developing diseases strongly correlated to obesity? No way.
Good to know my grande frappe with extra cream and chocolate syrup is saving me from diabetes!
The classic coffee is now bad for vs last week it’s good for you debate.
If I don’t drink enough coffee, I get a headache. If I drink too much coffee, I get a headache. There is a sweet spot.
I am going to live for ever at this rate…also can you metabolize caffeine as a primary carbon source?
Man, I like to have 2-3 cups a day. I didn’t know I should only take 2-3 drinks. That doesn’t seem like a lot.
