Diabetes. Twenty studies conducted worldwide indicate that coffee reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes by 50%. The researchers guessed the cause is chlorogenic acid coffee act to slow absorption of sugar in digestion. Chlorogenic acid also stimulates formation GLP-1, a chemical that increases insulin (a hormone that regulates the absorption of sugar into the cells). Other substances in coffee that trigonelin (pro-vitamin B3) also thought to help slow the absorption of glucose.

Heart disease and stroke. Coffee consumption does not increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. Instead, coffee actually slightly reduces the risk of stroke. A study of more than 83,000 women aged over 24 years showed those who drank two to three cups of coffee a day had a stroke risk 19% lower than those who did not drink coffee. Studies of a number of men in Finland showed similar results.

Cognitive function. The study of 4197 women and 2820 men in France showed that drinking at least three cups of coffee a day can prevent cognitive decline and brain aging by up to 33 percent in women. However, the same benefit was not found in men. This may be because women are more sensitive to caffeine.

Research the relationship of coffee consumption with miscarriage does not give the same conclusion. But pregnant women should be advised not to drink more than one cup of coffee a day.

For most people, drinking two to three cups of coffee no negative impact. Drinking coffee with more frequency than that can cause heart palpitations, insomnia, headache and other disorders.
