researchers found that coffee drinkers did not have a higher risk of heart disease, even among the heavy consumers who drank more than 6 cups daily.
*Coffee and Heart Disease: still conflicting!
researchers from the University of Athens found that coffee drinkers had more stiffness of the major blood vessel in the body than non-coffee drinkers. They suggested for people with high blood pressure or other risk factors for heart disease who drink more than 3 cups of coffee a day to cut down.
According to the American Heart Association, whether high caffeine intake increases the risk of heart disease is still under study. Moderate coffee drinking - one to two cups per day - does not seem to be harmful. Therefore, moderation is the key!
