Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.

In plain English

People who drink a lot of coffee seem to live longer - they're about one-third less likely to die from any cause and about half less likely to die from heart disease compared to people who don't drink coffee.

  1. Study: Association of daily sitting time and coffee consumption with the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality among US adults

    The study looked at coffee drinking and death rates in about 10,639 US adults. It found that people who drank the most coffee (highest quartile) were 33% less likely to die from any cause and 54% less likely to die from heart disease compared to people who didn't drink coffee. This exactly matches what the claim says.
