Snippet: If your job is a literal pain in the neck, drinking coffee may help, a new study from Norway says. People who drank coffee before sitting down to work at a computer for 90 minutes reported less pain in their necks and shoulders than those who didn't drink coffee, according to the study. Some in the study had previously suffered chronic neck and shoulder pain, while other participants hadn't — but people in both groups who drank coffee reported less pain, the researchers said.

As the quote from Fox didn't include the amount of coffee consumed in the study, maybe coffee jitters kept people fidgeting around and not getting so stiff!!!
