[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Four cups? You gotta pump those numbers

[-] Sprinks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

What if I said it's Death Wish. and left to steep in a french press throughout the day 😉 And its a large cup (10oz)

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Hmm maybe. I usually do an overnight soak

[-] kadotux@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago

Just buy amphetamines from some dude that definitely should be trusted like we did back in the day

Have you ever been tested for ADHD?

Good news: a new study has found a correlation between moderate consumption of coffee and lower stress & anxiety.

New Study Finds Moderate Coffee Consumption Linked With Lower Stress & Anxiety

When they say "2 to 3 cups", they're not referring to the unit of measure, are they?

[-] village604@adultswim.fan 9 points 1 month ago

I think they misspelled "pots"

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

“2 to 3 cups”

just use a gigantic cup and call it a day

[-] ricecake@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

I believe the standard cup of coffee is defined as 8oz/250ml. With interview studies like that it's harder to get exact measurements so they have big error bars and rely on having a standard reply to show the person how big a cup is.

Technically, what they end up concluding is that people who drink an amount of coffee they would describe to someone with a clipboard as 2-3 cups are less anxious. I'm willing to bet there's a good correlation between between that and drinking between 400 and 750 mL of coffee a day as well. :P

I've usually read standard is 6oz. Very annoying when being told to limit your consumption to a certain number of cups and then no one can agree on what a cup is or how much caffeine is in a cup in the first place.

[-] ricecake@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Totally. I think some of the issue is "coffee cup" vs "cup of coffee", with one being the volume of the mug and the other being the amount of coffee in said mug.

With the medical advice, I think it kinda deliberately vague, since you can't be that precise at home and they don't know the number that precisely to begin with.

I try to keep my intake around two cups of coffee per cup of coffee, anything higher than that and I get jittery.

[-] hopesdead@startrek.website 1 points 1 month ago

As far as I’m aware, there is no standard measurement for a single cup of coffee. I’ve seen in the past 5 oz used as a single cup.

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

A Cup is an imperial unit of measurement roughly equal to .24 Liters.

[-] PumaStoleMyBluff@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

However, American coffee machines with cup measurements typically use an infuriating 5 or 6 fl oz "coffee cup" volume.

[-] jack_of_sandwich@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 month ago

When compared to high consumption?

[-] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

It didn’t work last time, nor the time before that, nor ever, but perhaps this time…

Bless your heart, we're well past number four. And single digits.

Being a cuck for musk doesn't change the fact that he has a point
