  • A friend of mine just pointed me to this after he'd had a less than perfect cholesterol test result back..

    *Moore’s interest in cafestol began several years ago when his wife read an article on coffee’s effect on cholesterol. She suggested that he might change his brewing method, which involved a permanent coffee filter. The paper filters, the article suggested, removed the coffee oils, which contain cafestol.

    *No idea whether the evidence stacks up but it could convince me to move to paper filters on the aeropress rather than the reusable metal filter I use now. Anyone heard of this before?

    It was a study done on mice 6 years ago.. any new data? any human tests?
