One week it&#8217;s good for you. The next? It&#8217;s bad.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8220;This study, as with all the other studies, uses observational data so we have to be cautious because it&#8217;s not a clinical trial. We can&#8217;t infer cause and effect,&#8221; said Christina Wee, who was the editor of the paper<strong> <\/strong>and who <a class=\"gtmContentClick\" data-vars-link-text=\"wrote a corresponding editorial\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.acpjournals.org\/doi\/10.7326\/m22-1465\" data-vars-content-id=\"f6fa96d5-7753-456c-a916-2b0778e7a99d\" data-vars-headline=\"Coffee associated with lower mortality risk\" data-vars-event-category=\"story\" data-vars-sub-category=\"story\" data-vars-item=\"in_content_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.acpjournals.org\/doi\/10.7326\/m22-1465\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote a corresponding editorial<\/a> about the study.<\/li>\n<li>The authors did a particularly good job at controlling for other factors, like the physical activity of coffee drinkers, Wee said. Even so: &#8220;You can never be sure,&#8221; she said. <\/li>\n<li>There are some pros and cons with coffee consumption that have been documented, Wee said. But &#8220;if you look at the totality of the evidence, I think most people would comfortably say that coffee drinking a moderate amount is probably not harmful.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Yes, but: <\/strong>They&#8217;re talking about moderate amounts of coffee \u2014\u00a0between 1.5 and 3.5 cups a day. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>As Wee pointed out, this was based on data that is about 10 years old from the U.K. where the average coffee drinker is using an average of about a teaspoon of sugar \u2014\u00a0not downing caramel macchiatos. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The bottom line:<\/strong>  This doesn&#8217;t offer evidence that one should start a coffee habit for its benefits. But: &#8220;If you&#8217;re a regular coffee drinker, there&#8217;s no need to give it up,&#8221; Wee said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Those who drink coffee \u2014 sweetened or not \u2014 were less likely to die than non-coffee drinkers in the following seven years, according to a cohort study published Monday in<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":489,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1500638","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1500638","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/489"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1500638"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1500638\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1500638"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1500638"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1500638"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
