“In this large, observational study, ground, instant and decaffeinated coffee were associated with equivalent reductions in the incidence of cardiovascular disease and death from cardiovascular disease or any cause,” said study author Professor Peter Kistler of the Baker Heart and Diabetes Research Institute, Melbourne, Australia. “The results suggest that mild to moderate intake of ground, instant and decaffeinated coffee should be considered part of a healthy lifestyle.”
There is little information on the impact of different coffee preparations on heart health and survival. This study examined the associations between types of coffee and incident arrhythmias, cardiovascular disease and death using data from the UK Biobank, which recruited adults between 40 and 69 years of age. Cardiovascular disease was comprised of coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure and ischaemic stroke.

I just discovered it within the last few months. I drink a bottle of it every day. In addition to 2 cups of hot decaffeinated.

Have you tried cold brewing it yourself? It’s kind of fun and you can probably do it for 10% of what Starbucks costs.

No, I have not. Can you suggest a good recipe? I would have no idea how to go about it.

Google it. I just found a big container and poured a quart of water over a half pound of coffee and left it in the fridge overnight.
