Flashback Friday: Coffee and Artery Function video.

Flashback Friday: Coffee and Artery Function NutritionFacts.org
The new dietary guidelines for beverages recommend tea and coffee second only to water in healthfulness, but what about concerns they might impair the function of our endothelium? Get the preface for Dr. Greger's brand-new book, How Not to Diet, by subscribing to his free newsletter at https://ift.tt/2r5qova. I’m fascinated by how complicated such a simple question can get. The take-home is that water is the healthiest beverage, followed by tea. The effects of coffee on cancer risk are more salutary: Coffee and Cancer (https://ift.tt/2NuvjSq) What About the Caffeine? (https://ift.tt/34pJDCB) Preventing Liver Cancer with Coffee? (https://ift.tt/2C4Fqb6) It also matters what goes into the coffee. My video on aspartame and brain function (https://ift.tt/2r4T7QJ) explores the potential benefits of coffee in reducing suicide risk, which may be undermined by the addition of artificial sweeteners. Since this video was originally published, I have some newer ones on coffee: Does Coffee Affect Cholesterol? (https://ift.tt/2N6u0dy) Which Coffee Is Healthier: Light vs. Dark Roast? (https://ift.tt/2QxqDPU) Does Low-Acid Coffee Cause Less Acid Reflux? (https://ift.tt/2C0TLFx) Do the Health Benefits of Coffee Apply to Everyone? (https://ift.tt/2Oxdhir) Regarding artery function, I also have videos on walnuts, dark chocolate, tea, plant-based diets, olive oil, and vinegar. Just go to NutritionFacts.org and do a search for them. Have a question about this video?
