Drinking as many as eight cups of coffee a day could help you live longer, study says

In a study of around half-a-million British adults, coffee drinkers were found to have a slightly lower risk of death over a 10-year follow-up period than non-coffee drinkers.
The apparent longevity boost comes as yet another piece of good news for coffee lovers, with health benefits recorded in drinkers of instant, ground and decaffeinated coffee.
Late last year, researchers at the University of Southampton in the U.K. found people who drink three or four cups of coffee every day could significantly reduce their chances of early death.

Yes, the commitment which certain people have shown in the pursuit of negatives to coffee drinking is extraordinary.

This study included half a million people over ten years, so it's pretty strong.

I believe that I read or heard somewhere, that coffee stave off Alzheimer's,
Any way I do love a cup of good coffee, but do not drink it in the evening, due to the sleep,

Any antioxidant benefits may well be offset by the levels of acrylamide (created during the roasting process),
ahh just love the smell of acrylamide in the morning. Can also be found in potatoe chips (160 – 3000) μg/kg. Crisps n' coffee, not for me.

News site space fillers. Next week there will one one out saying it's bad for you, and the week after they'll be one saying it's great again.

Pretty much as far as I can see too. It's why I ignore the whole lot of these reports equally in a beautifuly ignorant caffeinated abyss.

Ten cups a day? I'd be so jittery, I'd vibrate out of this dimension.
