Regular caffeine consumption does not result in extra heartbeats, study shows


Contrary to current clinical belief, regular caffeine consumption does not lead to extra heartbeats, which, while common, can lead in rare cases to heart– or stroke–related morbidity and mortality, according to UC San Francisco researchers. The study, which measured the chronic consumption of caffeinated products over a 12–month period, rather than acute consumption, appears in the January 2016 issue of the Journal of the American Heart Association. It is the largest to date to have evaluated dietary patterns in relation to extra heartbeats.
