Many of us enjoy a cup of coffee (or four) to perk up during the day, and new research offers evidence that the popular beverage may bring numerous benefits along with it – including potentially the chance of living a longer, healthier life, researchers suggest.

    It’s important to note many of these studies involved self-reported coffee consumption, and the research was funded by the Institute for Scientific Information of Coffee – a non-profit organization supported by major international coffee companies.

      Reminds me of all the studies how a glass of wine also extended life that appeared nonstop in the news for the past two decades.

      Which was research paid for by big Wine companies.

    Being able to afford coffees and living in places where coffee is consumed regularly extends your lifespan. Why do these studies never control for those variables.

      Depends who their control group was. Probably people from the same area who don’t drink coffee.

        A team from the University of Coimbra in Portugal looked at 85 previous studies involving participants across Europe, the Americas, Australia, and Asia, analyzing coffee’s relationship to mortality rates and health indicators.

        I doubt it.

    Almost two extra years to drink more coffee. It’s that hard to give up.

                  so people that don’t like coffee should continue not to drink it?

                  I read this as “Enough! Leave me alone about coffee.” And it it cracked me up.
