“Stop digging. You already embarrassed yourself by being jerked by some dude at a keyboard.”


Agreed, if not for your bogus description of events: I was jerked by a stupid magazine making fake news from a junk science study, and I was not embarassed at all.

“Nonsense. An author can perfectly ask corrections from the magazines and even demand retraction or cancel the publication of the article. “

Stop digging.

Get real. They probably have no knowledge of the publication.

Here is the title of their study:


Cafestol and kahweol concentrations in workplace machine coffee compared with conventional brewing methods

“If he lets make fake news from his “study”, it’s because he is a dishonnest attention whore and his study is bunk, “

He has ZERO control over who reads his published story and reports on it.

Besides, the article is dated today.

That is false. Per your words I should demand that you take it down.

Please do so.

Go download the study, read it, and read the conclusion where it make recommendation out of nowhere on how to prepare coffee. You’ll see it IS junk science.

It’s not false, it was accurate. And I never demanded anyone to take anything down. Stop typing while drunk.

Again, you are talking nonsense and you make things up on the fly. The author was interviewed and was cited in the article. But he is supposed to have “ZERO control” on it. Yeah sure, talk to my hand.

That was not in the scope of the study.


You have a point. The headline writer made the connection.

The people who did the study did not write the headline.

I quickly read the actual paper. The author makes a link between the coffee making methods, LDL Cholesterol, and references a study claiming an increase in LDL Cholesterol, increases the potential for cardiovascular disease, thus increasing the possibility of cardiovascular disease.

So, the actual paper attempts to link coffee making methods, increased LDL, and cardiovascular disease.

How valid the paper linking increased LDL and cardiovascular disease is, I did not investigate.

What’s the point of this study? After all, cholesterol doesn’t cause your arteries to plaque up, it is in your arteries because SOMETHING ELSE is causing inflammation and other damage that the body repairs with plaque. It’s like blaming the presence of firemen on a street where a house burned down for the fire when, in fact, they are there to put out the fire. Blame the cause of the fire (or, in this case, plaques in the arteries), which is too much in the way of carbohydrates in the diet.

We did, too. But it doesn’t take out the black gunk.

The paper uses other’s work to provide a frame of reference for their findings. That was not part of the study as seen in their aim and conclusion. They don’t try to make a link. The only say that this could be an overlooked factor.

Their aim: Unfiltered coffee contains high concentrations of cholesterol-raising diterpenes. We aimed to measure the levels of diterpenes in machine coffee.

Their conclusion: Most coffees from workplace brewing machines contain higher diterpene concentrations than paper-filtered coffee, but lower than unfiltered coffee. Intake of insufficiently filtered coffee during working hours could be an overlooked factor for cardiovascular health due to its effect on plasma cholesterol concentrations.
