Americans are known to run on coffee. According to Bloomberg, about 83 percent of US adults drink the dark and delicious beverage, and that number is on the rise. But coffee isn’t only good for helping you wake up. On the contrary, even those who choose decaffeinated coffee could be experiencing some significant health benefits from the java. A new study suggests whether you choose regular or decaf, you could be reducing your risk of diabetes.
Researchers with Harvard University, who had their work published in the journal of the American Diabetes Association, Diabetes Care, wanted to determine if both regular and decaf provided the same anti-diabetic benefits. It wasn’t the first study to look at the effects of coffee on diabetes risk, but it was the first to pit decaf and regular against one another for analysis.
