New Warning About Drinking Too Much Coffee

New study claims drinking more than four cups of coffee a day can increase risk of early death.

Surprising headline for all of you,possibly enjoying your morning coffee right about now,myself included.A new study says that if you drink more than 4 cups a day,it might increase the risk of an early dealth.ABC news senior medical contributor doctor Jeniffe Asion is with us to make sense of all of this and a lot of people,they say,drink three or more cups a day,should we be concern about this new study?

Myself included,Lara,first of all,it's important to realize while this study brought up is that we might be drinking more than we think.If you drink one of this on your wait work,this could be equal of two and a half cups.it might be weigh over that,but to break down the study,we've to go through pros and cons.First of all,big study,it follow people for a long time and they looked at very es a truth.

40,000 people.

Absolutly,and they looked at people reputible.We like big numbers in medicine,however big negtive here,this was a study based on observation,it not show cause and affect,so that's very very important to keep in mind.

It's also confusing because I feel like as a broadcaster,downstories in the path and say"hey,drink your coffee ,there is medical benefit",so how do you say through the information?

One day it's one thing,one day it's another,we have to remember more at this point tip the skill and favor of the benefits of coffeein.There has been a lot of research which shows drinking cups of coffee decreases the risk of type two diabetes,it may reduce the risk of certern types of cancers like prostate cancer,certern skin cancers,and a study in Harvard this year showed a reduce risk of suicide in people who drink coffee.

All of that sounds really really good,so it's a case.Jean,of just moderation as key?

You got it.You hear doctor say that all the time,in moderation,especially if you don't have heart problem,blood problem,drink.I'll continue to drink my four cups.

It's enjoying.thank you,great infomation fron doctor Jeniffe,we thank you.
