- Researchers at a regional hospital wanted to explore the topic of whether decaffeinated coffee is bad for the heart. They found a group of 187 people who either drank no coffee, drank between 3-6 cups of caffeinated coffee per day, or drank between 3-6 cups of decaffeinated coffee per day. The researchers analyzed blood sample from the groups before and after the study to determine the levels of cholesterol and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) in the blood which are key indicators of heart disease risk. They found that those who drank 3-6 cups of decaffeinated cups of coffee per day experienced an 18% rise in NEFAs. This was not seen in the other two groups.
