Cofee consumption benefits
Abstract
The central point of this reflection around two recent studies on the association between coffee consumption and mortality. The studies point to the benefit of coffee intake in the mortality reduction. In Colombia, despite the loss of prestige gained as a land of drug trafficking and illicit crops, it is our concern to enhance the beverage that characterizes us in order to recover our good name in the international context. It is important to be attentive to the evidence that is emerging about the benefits of our national drink.
