Does Coffee Cause Cancer?! | Registered Dietitian
/Concerns about coffee and health always seems to be floating around, but a lot more people are talking about it after the recent ruling of a California judge. In relation the Proposition 65, a California law, a judge ruled that coffee shops need to post a warning that coffee can cause cancer. All of this is because of acrylamide, a compound found in coffee and other foods when they are cooked at high temperature. So should we stop drinking coffee? And does coffee actually cause cancer? That's what we're talking about in this video.
