  „The vast bulk of scientific and epidemiological evidence points to the conclusion that normal, regular consumption of coffee and caffeine containing beverages is not associated with heart or cardiovascular diseases, damage to the foetus, benign breast disease or cancer of any kind. Some people with irregular heartbeat syndromes may choose to drink decaffeinated coffee since caffeine has been known to precipitate arrythmias or ventricular premature beats, as do alcohol, exercise, stress and many drugs.“

Coffee and Osteoporosis

  „Coffee drinking has been implicated because it has been suggested that caffeine, which is naturally occurring in tea, coffee, and chocolate and added to cola and some energy type beverages, causes calcium excretion which in turn results in weakened bones.“

  „Two types of observational epidemiological study have been published. The case control study has the weakest design as exposure, in this case to caffeine or coffee, is measured at the same time as coronary heart disease risk making it impossible to decide which is cause and which effect. The cohort study has a stronger design as exposure is measured prospectively in a group of initially healthy subjects and the appearance of coronary heart disease over time monitored. “

  „There is no evidence that drinking beverages that have either high or low caffeine content causes any harm whatsoever to the cardiovascular system in normal individuals or even those suffering from cardiovascular disease. Studies carried out over a 12-month period in the United States (the Framingham study) showed no correlation between coffee consumption and cardiac or coronary diseases such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction or sudden death.“

  „Thanks to these properties, asthma patients can benefit from regularly drinking beverages that have caffeine, especially coffee. Even smokers who do not suffer from lung disease, as well as patients suffering from chronic pulmonary obstruction, can benefit from drinking coffee, since it increases alveolar ventilation.“
