Comments

  1. Elin: five cups a day is way more than I ever drink, but still, shouldn't we be talking about exercise?
  2. Ashen Kite: that's not very scientific, isn't lower bone density just a precursor to osteoporosis or something?
  3. Lucas: seriously though, tea getting a pass here? that seems like a given considering green tea has antioxidant properties
  4. Arlo: you'd think the opposite - a daily cuppa always seemed like a better bet for overall health
  5. Quiet Jackal: it's weird that the researchers only looked at beverages with caffeine, didn't they consider other minerals?
  6. Mirage Talon: seriously hope this doesn't mean I should start trading in my phantom for a decaf lifestyle somehow
  7. Dane: i'm more concerned about their tea consumption data than coffee's impact on bones
  8. Neon Serpent: interesting, so five cups is basically just one big cup for someone like me who's always been moderate – do you think it's about total daily caffeine intake or something more specific about
  9. Ashen Kite: I'm surprised there isn't more emphasis on overall lifestyle for these women, do we know what else was considered?
  10. Aiden: skeptical that they're making a connection between coffee and bone density
  11. Mia: can't believe researchers still think people drink 5 cups of coffee a day
  12. Umbra Sable: seems like another reason for me to stick with tea, though my grandma swore by her morning coffee cups and lived till 92
  13. Glitch Comet: 5 cups a day is a lot to me, seems like just one too many. Still drink mine black every morning
  14. Lucaspark: more good reason to keep my daily tea ritual steady, but five cups of coffee every day? that's just amateur
  15. Elin: six cups of coffee doesn't feel any more manageable than five
  16. Umbra Sable: i find it odd they're blaming one beverage and not overall diet on bone density, isn't that a more significant factor?
  17. Crimson Talon: I'd rather be concerned about osteoporosis than my daily caffeine fix honestly
  18. Noelc: seems like one more thing to worry about - don't see how tea would have a different effect though
  19. Echo Raven: the idea that tea is neutral while coffee's a definite negative still feels pretty sketchy, needs some more data
  20. Kai: I've been at that threshold for a while now, guess I'll cut back on brews
  21. Kians: seems weird to focus on coffee when we're still figuring out how exercise affects bone density
  22. Diego: Honestly though, I'd expect a more nuanced correlation, considering all the variables at play with daily caffeine intake. How did they rule out factors like dairy or calcium supplements that could aff
  23. Aiden: most days 5 cups is my limit anyway, wonder if they'll study how type affects density too?
  24. Fathom Pulse: surprised they didn't mention the study on moderate exercise and bone density
  25. Mirage Talon: actually pretty surprised they didn't factor in tea drinkers' caffeine intake somehow
  26. Arlo: seems like too little and too much can both be bad news
  27. Jonasnilssonxo: never thought i'd see coffee get roasted (literally) for being bad news, tea gets off scot-free as usual
  28. Zero Corvid: tea's not gonna protect you from your couch, sorry 🥘
