WASHINGTON — A new study suggests that your morning brew might be doing more than just perking you up — it could be protecting you from a range of serious heart conditions. Researchers working with the Endocrine Society have found that drinking a moderate amount of coffee is associated with a lower risk of developing multiple cardiometabolic diseases. In simpler terms, your daily cup of coffee (or three) might help ward off conditions like Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

“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,” says Dr. Chaofu Ke, the lead author of the study from Suzhou Medical College in China, in a media release.

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

That’s because decaf drinkers die within 30 days.

LOL. Guess I'm on borrowed time.

You have to read the articles about these studies. I’ve seen several where a control group with decaf also sees benefits, so maybe

Thanks. I'll look again.

It's usually not the caffeine, but it is difficult to untangle the factors. Decaf should count more or less the same as normal.
