|
Overview
Researchers have highlighted an association between coffee consumption and incident Atrial Fibrillation (AF) in a new study. According to the research middle-aged and older adults' risk of developing new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) tended to increase with the amount of coffee they drank, but not consistently so. However, risk was more than doubled among those drinking the greatest amounts.
The study findings have been published in the American Journal of Cardiology.
The study was conducted to investigate to find the potential dose-dependent relation between coffee intake and AF incidence in a multi-ethnic setting.
