When my great-grandfather was in his mid-30s a doctor told him that his heartbeat was so irregular that he’d be dead by 40... a sobering thought for the father a toddler with another baby on the way. He drank black coffee... with a shot of JD in it every morning. And he did die... at 97.

I’ve had Afib for over 15 years, and I drink caffeinated coffee all the time. No racing heart at all.

He’s also the chief cardiologist at StarBuck’s coffee.

I was diagnosed with Afib last year. Put on butt loads of Eliquis, Metoprolol and Amidiarone.

Coffee was never mentioned as to be avoided. Alcohol yes, but not caffeine.

Irregular heartbeat can be something I neve3r heard of before until I knew someone who had this condition. It’s similar to A-fib. It’s called A-flutter, and a very effective and easy treatment for it exists.

I don’t buy it. I have had to give up coffee, tea, and cola due to Afib.
Don’t miss them like I thought I would.
Finally was able to control the Afib by adding stronger meds.
Sure is better than ablation or pacemaker.

Sounds like a study to promote the half caffeine coffee I’ve seen in grocery stores recently.

I drink plenty of it, but I slip in some decaf along the way because I’m still drinking too much of it.

More likely to have sleeping issues than heart issues.
