If you drink morning coffee, you are at risk of cardiovascular death rather than drinking all day long ↓

This is the result of a study published in the European Heart Journal (ESC) journal on the 8th by a team led by Professor Lucci of Tulane University in the United States.
The research team surveyed 47,725 adults who participated in the 1999-2018 National Health and Nutrition Survey (NHANES) to see if they drink coffee, when and how much they drink, and analyzed them by linking them with 9.8 years of death records and causes of death.
Among the participants, 36% were classified as morning coffee group, 16% as day coffee group, and 48% as non-coffee group. There were 4295 deaths during the follow-up period, 1,268 deaths from cardiovascular disease and 934 deaths from cancer.
The risk of death from cardiovascular disease was 31% lower in the morning coffee group than in the coffee-free group. The risk of all-cause mortality was also 16% lower in the morning coffee group. However, there was no significant difference in the risk of death between the group who drank coffee all day and the group who did not drink coffee. In addition, the morning coffee group had a lower risk of death regardless of how much they drank, but the reduction in the risk of death was greater for those who drank two to three drinks or more than three drinks than those who drank less than one.
"The findings suggest that morning coffee is more beneficial to cardiovascular health and lower the risk of death than late-night coffee, but they do not explain why it lowers the risk of cardiovascular death," Chi said. "One possible explanation could be that afternoon or evening coffee affects hormones such as biorhythm and melatonin, which leads to changes in cardiovascular risk factors such as inflammation and blood pressure."
