If you need one more excuse to pour another piping-hot cup o' joe, one study provides it.
According to research published in the journal Diabetes Care, regular coffee drinkers benefit from a substantially reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes than their coffee-abstaining peers.
The study, conducted by researchers at the University of California, San Diego, was based on data from more than 900 adults.
Monitoring the subjects over the course of eight years, researchers noted that those adults who consumed coffee daily – even decaf blends – were a surprising 60% less likely to be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
The reduced risk held constant even when other dietary and lifestyle factors were taken into account.
