Coffee does not increase risk of high blood pressure

bblogo.jpgI like the sound of the story below. However, what evidence is there for men. I love my coffee and this would be my ammo to take to my doctor. And you all know how I love to take my laptop to the local coffee and do some work there and enjoy my cup of coffee. Or two or three cups.

Coffee does not increase risk of high blood pressure: “Go ahead, ladies, ask for that extra shot of espresso in your morning latte. The caffeine jolt might spike your blood pressure for a short time—until lunch, perhaps—but it won’t have a lasting effect, according to aimages.jpg study out this week in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The study followed more than 155,000 women for 12 years, asking them every couple of years about their consumption of caffeinated beverages and whether they had been diagnosed with high blood pressure by a doctor. Researchers found no association between total caffeine intake and high blood pressure.”
