http://www.dailytitan.com/2011/04/12/coffee-can-be-healthy/The author tries to convince us that dringking coffee is beneficial to our health. This argument belongs to the claim of value. It takes some studies to support the claim. It indicates the majority of studies states benefits of the comsumption of coffee rather than disadvantages. Joe Vinson, PH.D., a coffee expert at the University of Scranton, states drinking about two to four cups of coffee a day would cause health benefits, one of which is the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Also, according to an experiment conducted by American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, people participating the experiment who drank four or more cups of caffeinated beverages daily, most of which were coffee, and 53 percent lower risk of heart disease. The study also shows drinking coffee will contributes to some health benefits of brain, heart, cancer, and diabetes if people drink coffee moderately. Therefore, the author concludes coffee can be healthy.
I think the argument is valid. The author lists some studies which are conducted by an expert and a professional institution can be trust. Hence, I agree with the argument.
