Even more interesting is that the faster metabolizing gene reduces risk of a heart attack when drinking one to three cups a day. Some people just seem to get lucky in life! I know I do not have the fast metabolizing gene, but it's okay since I only drink one cup of coffee a day anyway.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07891964388986868767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360356351594869925.post-26338717664484941642016-12-14T09:45:51.507-05:002016-12-14T09:45:51.507-05:00This is a cool article.

Maybe the discovery of this gene can decrease the number of heart attacks by a large number. If more people knew about this, slow metabolizers would lower their intake.
