Don’t get DOOPED by this new coffee myth

For readers of eAlert, you know I’ve never been shy about the numerous health benefits of drinking coffee.

It’s good for your brain, your waistline, and even helps lower your risk of type 2 diabetes.

But despite all of that, it hasn’t stopped mainstream medicine from vilifying coffee… especially when it comes to how it affects your heart.

And the latest mainstream myth about coffee is a DOOZY.

But today I’m going to show you why they’re WRONG (again)… and real the truth that proves you don’t need to be DOOPED by another myth about coffee!

According to a study presented at the recent American College of Cardiology’s 71st Annual Scientific Session, drinking 2-3 cups of coffee a day is associated with a lower risk of heart disease and dangerous heart rhythms.

Why do I bring this up?

Well, for the longest time, many have strongly asserted that drinking coffee daily can cause issues with your heart — including cardiac arrhythmias, an improper beating of the heart.

But, according to these findings, “each additional cup of coffee” actually LOWERS your risk of arrhythmias by 3%.

Now, let me be clear…

This is not a license to start guzzling endless extra cups of coffee each day… or to start drinking coffee if you’ve never drank it before.

It’s simply cutting through the noise that coffee is NOT a direct indicator of arrhythmias!

So, if you’re already a habitual coffee drinker, keep it up! Just be sure to stick to no more than 2-3 cups each day to reap its = benefits.

If you’ve never been a coffee drinker but are considering giving it a try,, I suggest starting with one cup each day.

And when it comes to your heart health – especially staying on top of potential arrhythmias – be sure to get regular checkups with your doctor or cardiologist.

To firing up that coffee pot,
