I haven't seen a lot, health-wise, that suggests coffee is detrimental. Environmentally it's a harder sell every year with climate change and the number of coffee drinkers still yet to peak, but the economics will counter that soon enough.

i read an old study that caffiene, had a affect against blood sugar, probably due to its diuretic effects.

A study of studies? That's interesting. I wonder how often that happens? I should do a study about it. A study of studies about studies.

A review of studies is a meta-analysis. What you're describing is a meta-meta-analysis, which is also a thing! Here's one I found from a cursory search..

In other news, it has been found that water, is indeed, wet.

Ah, I get it now. Thank you for the simple break down. I think we can all comfortably agree that meat is now....met.

Rule of thumb: if the presented findings are not in the (commercial, political) interest of the sponsor, they are probably correct. If they do agree though, they are probably false or at least misleading.

My father gave up red meat and soda around 2002. My dad's clone, my uncle didn't give up anything. Yes they are clones, I sequenced them myself. Since then my dad has always been at least 20lbs heavier than my uncle despite having almost identical activity levels since they had similar jobs and shared hobbies for most of the time. Now 23 years later my dad has heart congestive heart failure and a torn meniscus in his knee while my uncle has a perfect heart but has needed both knees replaced. I think the biggest difference is definitely the sugar because my uncle tends to drink diet soda and my dad fruit juice, tea and coffee.

One time a vegan saw me accidentally swallow a bug. They got super violent and tried killing me with their birkenstocks. Luckily they cried so hard they had an aneurysm right then and there. Everyone, cows chickens and humans, clapped at my bravery. The CEO of Tyson saw this and made me his protege and sole heir. Eat meat and avoid fruit juice guys, it worked for me.
