The opinion that with coffee there is more risk of heart disease is widespread. However, it is believed to be half corrupt. A survey by Professor Walter Willet and his team at the Dutch university Erasmus has shown something else.

Over the course of two years, 45,589 coffee growers between 40 and 75 years have been followed, with a daily average of four coffees, with the risk factor of heart disease being only 1.04. In contrast, in a similar survey with decaf receptors, risk factor 1.63 (more!) has been tested.
