An acute lateral-wall myocardial infarction was reported in a 55-year-old woman with a 1-year history of use of a weight loss product containing 300 mg Citrus aurantium (no other description provided) as well as 30 mg caffeine (misidentified as guararanine [sic]) and 30 mg green tea (no other description). The patient also reported a nearly 40-year tobacco-smoking habit (IVl packs per day), high caffeine intake from cola, coffee, and tea, and a preexisting heart murmur (Nykamp et al. 2004).

An excess of myocardial infarction in patients who reported drinking large amounts of coffee each day, representing a 2 /4-fold increase in risk among women drinking 6 or more cups daily was briefly reported (8 ). The conclusion was that the possible role of coffee-drinking in the aetiology of acute myocardial infarction required further consideration.
