Drinking more than a cup of coffee per day reduces the risk of stroke by 25% in women. The research was conducted at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden. Researchers have also found that drinking more than one cup of coffee in a day can lower the risk of diabetes and liver cancer in women.
This could be because coffee reduces inflammation and improves insulin sensitivity. Coffee contains anti-oxidants which prevent diseases.
