Contrary to findings from an earlier study, new research suggests that coffee lovers do not face an increased risk of heart failure.

Researchers found that among more than 37,000 middle-aged and older Swedish men, those who regularly drank coffee were no more likely to develop heart failure than those who infrequently, if ever, drank the beverage.

The findings, reported in the American Heart Journal, add to evidence that coffee may not be the heart-health threat it was once suspected to be.

与早期的研究结果相反，新的研究表明，咖啡爱好者并不会面临着心脏衰竭增加的风险。

研究人员在超过37000名中老年瑞典男性中发现，那些经常饮用咖啡的人没有比很少喝咖啡的或只喝饮料的人更容易患心脏衰竭。

这项研究发表在美国心脏杂志上，给咖啡可能不是心脏健康的威胁这曾经遭到怀疑的观点补充了证据。
