Drinking Coffee Equals Reduced Risk of Diabetes?
According to a report in the June 26 issue of Archives of Internal Medicine (one of the JAMA/Archives journals), drinking coffee (especially decaffeinated) may lower the risk of type 2 diabetes.

The link between coffee and diabetes risk appears to be consistent across different ages and body weights; in addition, most research has found that the more coffee an individual generally drinks, the lower his or her risk for diabetes.


BUT, there is no clear distinction whether it is the caffeine or another ingredient in coffee that possibly gives that protective effect.

This definitely sounds to coffee drinkers like me.

Polyphenols (found to help the body process carbohydrates and antioxidants) in coffee beans may protect the cells in the insulin-producing pancreas. Could be or could be not the beneficial element in coffee but sure should be examined in future studies.
