Study: Coffee linked to lowered diabetes risk
If you relish drinking coffee, you may be brewing up a healthy dose of prevention from type 2 diabetes.
Dutch and American researchers reviewing a variety of studies found that participants who habitually drank coffee had a lower risk for developing type 2 diabetes. The team based their results on nine studies involving more than 190,000 people and 8,394 cases of type 2 diabetes in Europe and the United States.
The researchers determined that people who consumed more than six or seven cups of coffee a day had a 35% lower risk of the disease than those who downed less than two cups a day. Moreover, people who drank between four and six cups had a 28% lower risk as compared to those who drank less than two cups daily.
