“Coffee can cause insomnia, nervousness, restlessness, upset stomach, nausea, and vomiting, increased heart rate and breathing rate, and other side effects,”
“Consuming large amounts of coffee might also cause headache, anxiety, agitation, ringing in the ears, and irregular heartbeat.”
It’s not the caffeine alone that can be harmful to a person either. Many coffee drinkers load their java up with cream, sugar, or sweeteners and flavoring ingredients that add calories and fat, which bring a host of their own potential health issues.
“Adding syrupy flavorings plus an additional packet of sugar or artificial sweeter, milk, or cream and then topping it all off with a dollop of whipped cream may be a nice treat once in a while, but those who do this regularly are putting themselves at increased risk related to excess calories,”
The bottom line:
You can still have your morning coffee — the potential benefits are still real — but if you’ve needed a reason to cut back, this new study finds it.
Once you drink more than six cups in a day, you’re increasing your risk for cardiovascular disease, which might erase any potential benefit from your first five cups.
“We can’t definitively identify a causal link, and these outcomes may be more related to other lifestyle or behavioral choices by the consumer,”
