That's right, those who sat around for more than six hours and don't drink coffee. Out of twenty four percent, we're more likely to die. This, according to a study in the BMC Public Health Journal. Now, you might want to move around as well.

That indicates both the risk of sedentary behavior and the benefit of coffee drinking. Researchers note that given the coffee is a complex compound, further research is needed.
