The headline says "coffee
might trigger...in
some"
This translates to mean that some doctor noticed someone had a heart attack after a lifetime of drinking coffee (let's, for argument's sake, ignore the alcohol, smoking, fatty foods and sedentary lifestyle) and postulated a link and subsequently created a trial which had no real results, thus the wishy-washy headline. This concludes michael's skepticism 101 tutorial in epidemiology.
PS where is the "CHRIST DIED FOR OUR DUNKIN' DONUTS" one?
