Here's just some of what this study has also found:
People who drank at least one cup of coffee per day had a 20% lower risk of having a stroke.
People who drank at least one cup of coffee per day had a 32% lower risk of having a intracerebral hemorrhage (this condition causes about 13% of strokes).
People who drank 2 to 3 cups of green tea each day had a 14% lower risk of having a stroke.
DESIGN:
The study examined the coffee and green tea drinking habits of over 82,000 adults, between the ages of 45 to 74, and followed them for an average of 13 years.
CONCLUSION:
Dale Webb, D.Phil., says: "We really welcome this study, which suggests that the benefits of antioxidants in coffee and green tea offset the potential harm from use of caffeine.
The results demonstrate higher consumption of green tea and coffee might reduce the risks for a stroke, especially for intracerebral hemorrhage."
SUGGESTION:
As in all things, moderation is recommended. If you already drink a cup of coffee each day, this study seems to show there's no reason to change that behavior. In fact, your morning coffee may be helping protect you from a stroke!
