Why you can't stop eating: The science of cravings, food addiction and 5 ways to regain control | Michael Pollan & Prof Tim Spector
What was said
"The epidemiology is strongest probably for heart disease, that having up to 6 cups a day can reduce your risk of heart disease by 25 to 30%."
Professor Tim Spector cites epidemiological evidence showing substantial cardiovascular benefits from coffee consumption up to 6 cups daily. He clarifies that polyphenols in coffee, not just caffeine, drive these benefits, and that decaffeinated coffee retains most health advantages. The finding challenges widespread anxiety about coffee consumption being harmful.
