Letter.

Letter Published in The National UAE on 10 April 18  Coffee drinkers should worry about the health implications
In reference to your op-ed A Storm in a coffee cup or cause for concern? (April 9), Justin Thomas’s piece was a great read. The recent decision by Los Angeles judge Elihu Berle to force Starbucks and other coffee chains to attach warning labels to their beverages due to the carcinogenic effects of coffee, which might lead to cancer, was refreshing. Coffee drinkers should indeed be careful. Coffee drinking has become routine for millions of people and today it is good business. But it is easy to forget that caffeine is a stimulant and could have worrying health implications.
