Great news for espresso addicts!  (Like me! Now I can have three cups every morning!)

The researchers found no association between coffee consumption and cardiovascular events, heart attacks or strokes, among these patients — even after carefully adjusting for age, gender, smoking, cardiac history, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, exercise stress testing, left ventricular ejection fraction, angina, dietary factors, and cardiac procedures and medications. In fact, those drinking more than 4 cups a day showed an untenable 12% lower risk for later cardiovascular events compared to noncoffee drinkers.
