‘Coffee not as bad for heart as claimed’



A new study has suggested that coffee does not make the arteries stiffer in contrary to previous studies that claimed coffee is bad for arteries.

According to the study presented at the ‘British Cardiovascular Society Annual Conference’ in Manchester, previous suggestions that drinking coffee leads to stiffer arteries are inconsistent and could be limited by lower participant numbers.

Arteries carry blood containing oxygen and nutrients from your heart to the rest of your body. If they become stiff, it can increase the workload on the heart and increase a person’s chance of having a heart attack or stroke.
