No smoking. No sodas greater than 16 oz. No salt. No coffee.
We will all live to 120 but life will be unbelievably boring.
Life is about living.....not merely extending the years!

The usual “study” bull$h!t.
Maybe sick people like to drink a lot of coffee to feel good and have energy.
This “study” like most is invalid.

First coffee is good, then it is bad, then good again. Now studies show————.

Wake me when the pendulum swings back to coffee is a wonder food.
Does anyone here read Life Extension Magazine? They did an excellent job of slicing and dicing the BS hit job on vitamin E.

Correlation does not mean causation.
My guess is that if you are drinking four cups of coffee, there are many other factors in your life that will indicate things such as stress, a horrible diet, and smoking.
The coffee is not killing these people. But the people that die, drink a lot of coffee.
