If you drink two or more cups of black coffee a day, take care. One or two cups a day can do no harm, but anyone drinking more than 5 cups a day is risking their health in later life, say American researchers. In a study of 1,130 medical students over a 25 year period, it was revealed that coffeeholics are almost 3 times as likely to suffer heart attacks than moderate coffee drinkers are - and the source of the problem, caffeine. So, if you must drink your coffee black and strong at least make it decaffeinated. ome File Index 480 Babycare 486 LONSDALE GYM & FITNESS CENTRE * 492
