A Harvard University study of more than 400,000 people found that those who drank two to six cups of coffee daily were at less risk of dying from diabetes, heart disease, respiratory disease, and other conditions than nondrinkers The researchers think the antioxidant chlorogenic acid found in coffee helps fight against cell injury, while another compound, cafestol, improves blood vessel function. For maximum benefits, drink Greek coffee. “Slow boiling your coffee will boost cafestol by 70 to 80 times,” says Buettner. Plus, it’s lower in caffeine.
