Relationship between caffeine intake and thyroid function: results from NHANES 2007-2012.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Moderate caffeine intake decreases the risk of metabolic disorders and all-cause mortality, and the mechanism may be related to its ergogenic actions. Thyroid hormones are vital in metabolic homeostasis; however, their association with caffeine intake has rarely been explored.

Objective

Methods
