Moderate coffee consumption could provide health perks, study says

Sept. 17 (UPI) -- Caffeine consumed from coffee or tea could provide more perks than staying awake, according to new research that found it could also lower the risk of coronary heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes.

The study, published Tuesday in the Endocrine Society's Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, found consuming moderate amounts of caffeine -- defined as three cups of coffee or tea a day -- could lower the risk of developing cardiometabolic multimorbidity.
