Except iron deficiency (and resulting anaemia) is much more common in women than in men [1]. Coffee intake should likely be reduced for women with iron deficiency issues, and avoided altogether for children and adolescents.
I say this while having my morning coffee.

- jgalvez 8y agoIron deficiency might be the most common of deficiencies worldwide, for sure, but there are very few studies addressing the widespread chronic iron excess in a wide range of daily product consumption in developed countries. So switching your iron sources to hand picked, natural ones while including a moderate amount of coffee in your daily diet (and not taking them together) seems like the way to go for me.
