Coffee Drinking
A Norwegian study suggests that drinking coffee in moderation, up to five cups a day, can reduce the chances of contracting cardio-vascular diseases, Parkison’s and Alzheimer’s. The researchers based their findings on data from 27,000 women in United States. Those who drank between one and three cups of coffee daily reduced the risk of contracting cardio-vascular diseases and “inflammatories” such as Parkison’s and diabetes by between 20 to 25 percent.
The stay also showed coffee accounts for 60 percent of antioxidants in the classical Norwegian diet. Antioxidants are substances such as vitamins and beta carotene, which attack free radicals, the molecules the body produces naturally that are at the root of many diseases.
