Coffee Good, Cola Bad For Women

You might think caffeinated coffee would increase your blood pressure. Not so, according to a new study in JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association.
"Coffee drinking was not at all associated with a greater risk of high blood pressure," said Wolfgang Winkelmayer, M.D. ScD with Brigham and Women´s Hospital. "If anything, coffee drinking was associated with a preventive effect in that women who drank more coffee were less likely to have high blood pressure."
Winkelmayer was part of a 12-year study of about 150,000 women. The researchers, from Brigham and Women´s Hospital in Boston, and other institutions, expected to find that caffeinated coffee increased the risk of high blood pressure.
