This morning Foxnews had a segment in which they highlighted studies that show that coffee is good for you.
In my health segment today on "FOX and Friends," I talked about the benefits of coffee. Some of the data comes from Harvard researchers who analyzed results from 126,000 coffee drinkers over an 18-year period. In the study, researchers found a significant reduction in Type II diabetes when compared to non-coffee drinkers. Even though the average coffee drinker in the study consumed an average of two to three cups of caffeinated coffee daily, the more coffee the subjects drank (over six cups), the more significant the reduction in diabetes was found — for men and women.
These findings are nothing new. The positive attributes of coffee run the gamut from reducing colon cancer by as much as 25 percent, reducing liver cirrhosis by as much as 80 percent, to helping alleviate asthma symptoms, knocking out headaches and, get this, preventing cavities.
