People under 55 should not drink more than 28 cups of coffee a week.
A 2013 study published in the journalProcedure of the Mayo Clinic analyzed howcoffee consumption affects the health of people, depending on the amount they consume. Researchers have seen more than 43,700 people generally in good health - which means that they did not have an earlier history of a heart attack, a cerebrovascular accident or cancer - for an average of 17 years. During the study period, 2,512 deaths took place. On the basis of these results, men and women under the age of 55 who drank more than 28 cups of coffee each week had a risk of mortality quite higher than those who have not drank coffee, more than an increased risk of 50%.
"It seems appropriate to suggest that the youngest avoid a high coffee consumption," concluded researchers.

Men of all ages may need to limit the weekly coffee consumption.

The researchers found that men of all ages had an increased risk of 21% mortality all causes when they drank more than 28 cups of coffee every week.
"However, coffee consumption has not been associated with any causes of mortality in women" of all ages, researchers noted. They also indicated that the risk of all caustic mortality was even greater for men who had a body mass index (BMI) of 25 or more people and drank more than 28 cups of coffee per week, but given the size From the sample, researchers were not able to investigate this association more deeper.
The researchers discussed whether coffee is good for adults.
Caffeine has been seen for its health benefits in the past, but excessive consumption has clear its risks.

"He continues to be a considerable debate on the health effects of caffeine and coffee specifically, with some reports suggesting a toxicity and a bit verysuggesting beneficial effects, "CardiologistCarl Lavie, MD, co-author of the study, said in a declaration.
Researchers for the 2013 study indicate that genetics can also play a role in the reason why coffee could be harmful - which could explain why men of all ages are affected but not women. "Research also suggest that heavy coffee drinkers can undergo additional risks through potential genetic mechanisms or because of confusion through the harmful effects of other risk factors with which coffee consumption is associated," has declared researchers.
