Coffee Threat Over-rated

COFFEE THREAT OVER-RATED

A common advice for the patients who have irregular heart beats known as “ARRHYTHMIAS” is to cut the caffeine.

But news from University of Toronto, by cardiologist Martin G.Myer say that a person taking about 500mg. of caffeine daily (i.e. 5 or 6 cups of coffee) does not cause Arrhythmias.

He said that" It is misconception that caffeine speeds up heart beat rate". However taking 900mg of caffeine (i.e. 9 to 10 cups of coffee) may increase the pre-existing arrhythmias.

Infact, people sensitive to caffeine can develop panic attacks, including heart palpitations, by taking relatively low amount of caffeine.

Damn! Good info! :k:

Yes indeed it can be over rated or paranoia from white coats who had to say something to let ppl know if they existed but dear do try to live without having a cup for a day or two..

i am a coffee adict, i cant go without having atleast one cup of coffee or some sort of cafine/sugar n its usually a large cup with expresso shots n at times i do get weird heart beats but i dont think i have arhythmyas or watever that was
