A large study of nearly half a million older adults followed
for about 12 years revealed a clear trend: as coffee drinking increased, the
risk of death decreased. Study author Neal Freedman, PhD, MPH, National Cancer
Institute, discusses the significance of these findings and the potential links
between coffee drinking, caffeine consumption, and various specific causes of
disease in an interview in Journal of Caffeine Research, a peer-reviewed
journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is available on
the Journal of Caffeine Research website.
