I think the caffeine idea was discounted, since the italian study used tea too, maybe this one also, and no results were comparable to the coffee, but I forget lol. I'm enjoying my three cups of cappuccino in the morning, regardless.

Cheryl - Answers for "now what":

1) Make a sacrifice for the poor sinners. (That was the nuns' way of getting us to do or not do something when I was in Catholic primary school.)
2) Suck it up. (my college students' solution for anything distasteful to do)
3) Ignore it. Maybe it will go away (- and another research will come along saying coffee is bad for you). wink
