Coffee – It Is Good For You – Coffee Prevents Diabetes and Heart Disease

I Love Coffee
I have always loved coffee. I don’t love Latte’s or Cappuccino’s. I love good American coffee.

Black coffee. Without sugar and without cream. Just good coffee. I love my coffee hot.

I have always drank 5 or 6 cups a day, much to the chagrin of those around me. There has always been a feeling that too much coffee is bad for you. People say that if they drink coffee in the evening, they can’t sleep, or that too much coffee makes them jittery. Others drink caffeine enhanced drinks to get energy. Not me. I just love coffee. It doesn’t keep me awake. It doesn’t make me jittery.

But if I don’t have my handy dandy hot cup of coffee in my insulated mug, I crave it.

Now another new study has come out, and it would seem that coffee is good for you, in moderation. Moderation means 5-6 cups a day.

VINDICATED AT LAST!!!!!

A Study by the National Cancer Institute
Coffee may help extend the lives of people who drink it daily, a U.S. study found.

Men who drank 2-3 cups a day had a 10% chance of outliving those who drank no coffee, while women had a 13% advantage, according to research published yesterday in the New England Journal of Medicine.

In most cases, drinking six or more cups a coffee a day for men and women lowered the risk even further, the study also showed.

The study by researchers at the National Cancer Institute is the largest to compare coffee drinkers with those who avoid it to determine whether the beverage can delay the risk of dying from ailments such as heart disease, diabetes or respiratory illness, said Neal Freedman, the lead study author.

It’s unclear why coffee may be beneficial and more research is needed to study that question, Freedman added.

VINDICATED AT LAST! Think I will now go and have another cup of coffee.
