Caffeinated beverages 'help protect the elderly': American Journal of Clinical Nutrition

Caffeinated beverages 'help protect the elderly'

Extract:

"The risks of heart disease to the elderly may be diminished by caffeinated drinks, according to a recent study.

Those over 65 who consume four or more caffeinated drinks per day may reduce their risk of cardiac disease by up to 53 per cent, the study, which was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, showed.

However, those under the age of 65 or those with stage two hypertension do not benefit at all from caffeine, the study discovered."

These findings may prove to be true, I suppose, but overwhelmingly the best, most reliable measure that people of any age can take to reduce their risk of cardiac disease (and also hypertension) is to eat less salt/sodium. - See my website www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk and the page http://www.wildeaboutsteroids.co.uk/conditions.html (The site does not sell anything and has no banners or sponsors or adverts - just helpful information.)
