Those who drank 1.5 to 3.5 cups of coffee per day, even with a teaspoon of sugar, were up to 30 percent less likely to die during the study period than those who didn’t drink coffee.
I wish coffee studies would report results in ounces (or better, ml) instead of ambiguous "cups"
The Coffee industry uses 6 ounce cups, the USA standard "cup" is 8 ounces, and the imperial cup is 10 ounces (the study was based on UK data).
I drink around 12 oz of coffee a day and I drink it out of a single large coffee cup, is that 1 cup, 2 cups, 1.5 cups, or 1.2 cups?
It is a study on self reported data. They won't know how strong the coffee was, or even the size of the cup. Or if the teaspoons of sugar were heaped or flat.
