ABSTRACT

In this report, we correlated the incidence of rosacea with coffee (regular and decaffeinated) and tea consumption in a large cohort of middle-aged men and women living within the United Kingdom. Caffeinated coffee drinkers had lower odds for rosacea diagnosis compared to non-coffee drinkers. We hypothesize that the vasoconstrictive effects of caffeine in regular coffee overpower the vasodilatory effects associated with hot beverages and support it to be protective against rosacea.
