Hi. I have high blood pressure but I love coffee. I always have! I wanted to ask if coffee affects your blood pressure levels negatively? Do you drink it? How to substitute?

I had a heart attack and bypass surgery and got told off for drinking too much coffee! I had to change to decaf and now I am used to it and it tastes ok. It’s taken some getting used to but I now only have normal coffee a couple of times a week. I also have AF which a lot of caffeinated coffee is a trigger .

Hi @Worsebuthopefull

How are you doing?If you are concerned about high blood pressure, remember to consult a doctor. But you ask a good question! I will tag a few members who may be able to share their experiences with you as it relates to coffee consumption and blood pressure.

@Anna08 @deh5528 @Maryf995 @Kayado @mack73 @Sam1972W @PaulECarden @Fiveleft5 @Thingy @Ombliss22 @Beesnees @Rachel1964 @Andybear @Carol16 @PaulineRosalyn @Telboy401 @Honeywell12 @ELA1963 @rrk3001 @debstott59 @Mags38 @Seun60 @Yorkielass @Lilylady0411 @Athena @Loulou75 @Paula56 @3jacks8 @Jillybaby @bootsboot

Do you drink coffee? Does it affect your BP? Have you needed to change your caffeine habits to your help your blood pressure?

Share what you do!

Take care,

@LizziB I have high blood pressure and am on Atenolol. We drink decaffeinated coffee together with decaffeinated tea. I am allergic to milk so drink black tea. I love my coffee and am afraid I could never give it up!
