OMFG! EVERYTHING’S GOING TO KILL EVERYONE!

Years ago, it was that caffeine in coffee will cause heart attacks. Then they say it’s good for cardiovascular health. Then they say decaf is better for polyphenols. Then they say it’ll keep Alzheimer’s at bay. Now they say it’ll make you obese.

Are you freaking kidding me? Coffee’s been consumed for centuries. Obesity on the scale that we see it now is a relatively contemporary development and is most likely due to the excessive amounts of sugar in our foods.

Agree!! Also makes me wonder in whether this study included various types of high calorie coffee drinks (e.g. with cream, sugar, other flavorings, latte, etc).
