Those studies are all bunk science. It is not possible to say anything about the effects of caffeine by studying tea or coffee drinking, just as it’s not possible to say anything about the effects of nicotine by studying tobacco smoking.
Why? Because the results regarding caffeine/nicotine get conflated with all the other psychoactive compounds present in the brews/smoke.
- deeviant 6y agoThe research overwhelming supports that those that drink coffee regularly, live longer. The caffeine may not be the cause, but rather other parts of coffee (this is generally the accepted view), but it is also true that most people in this studies drink caffeinated coffee which means drinking large amounts of caffeine is compatible with living a longer life.
