There are also findings that drinking coffee can reduce prostate cancer, which caught my attention since I've known people with prostate cancer.
As you suggest in the introduction, I have become very skeptical of nutrition science over the years. There are so many variables to control for, and they rely so much on self-reporting, that I just don't think the statistics are reliable. Also, there's a lot of political influence from the food industry that decides which studies get funded and published.
I stopped drinking coffee for about 6 months a while back to see if I felt any healthier or slept any better, and I didn't notice a difference, so now I'm back to a pot or two per day, and I'll take my chances. 😉 But yeah, I have the knee-jerk "kids shouldn't drink coffee" response, too, and I'm not sure what to think about that.
It's nice to find a like-minded person😀. I think that science will not soon make progress in this direction. Sometimes it amazes me that humanity is able to make such progress in electronics, but cannot research what should or should not be eaten😆.
This is impressive. Most people are unable to change their habits.
I let my daughter taste it and luckily she didn't like it. Therefore, now this question may continue to remain a mystery for me.
