Is It Safe To Put Decaf In Coffee For A Diabetic Person Who Drinks Too Much Of Coffee?

hi my father in law has type 2 diabetes he is stubborn and refuses to change eating habits. He drinks too much coffee(regular) and we know that is a major factor of why he was recently given a prescription for high blood pressure. we want to buy decaf and put it in a (regular) coffee jar without him knowing. do you think its a good idea? is there any side effects? what do you think?

DEAR SIR/MADAM

DECAF HAS PROVED TO BE MORE DANGEROUS SIDE EFFECTS TO HEART COMPARED TO REGULAR COFFEE. SO I RECOMMEND YOU TO CONTINUE REGULAR COFFEE, BUT GRADUALLY DECREASE THE FREQUENCY.

THANKS
