Answer 2

A Harvard article mostly agrees with the article from Healthline. The article quotes Frank Hu, chair of the Department of Nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health saying "The overall evidence has been pretty convincing that coffee has been more healthful than harmful in terms of health outcomes." However, it is important to remember that coffee is only healthy in moderate consumption; the article says 2-5 cups a day. Coffee is also known to be harmful to pregnancies.

So in conclusion, coffee can be beneficial depending on the person as long as it is moderately consumed.

Answer 6

The claim that drinking coffee is associated with several health benefits can actually be considered true according to information by the Harvard School of Public Health. Frank Hu, chair of the Department of Nutrition at Harvard states in an article, "...moderate coffee intake- about 2-5 cups a day- is linked to lower likelihood of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, liver and endometrial cancers, Parkinson's disease, and depression. It's even possible that people who drink coffee can reduce their risk of early death."

Hu emphasized, however, that too much of anything can have negative effects, including coffee. In addition, adding too much cream or sugar to coffee can lead to the negative health effects that are usually associated with coffee. In the end, this statement can be considered true and coffee can have a variety of health benefits.

Answer 8

According to Web MD, "Drinking coffee in moderate amounts (about 4 cups daily) is likely safe for most people. Drinking more than 4 cups of coffee daily is possibly unsafe. Drinking large amounts might cause side effects due to the caffeine content." Therefore this is true but only in small amounts.
