People who consumed 200 to 300 milligrams of caffeine a day were less likely to develop coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes or stroke.

There are certain studies that coffee lovers, well, love.

This is one of them: Drinking several cups of caffeinated coffee or tea a day may protect against Type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease and stroke.

The findings, published Tuesday in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, add to existing research suggesting that daily coffee drinkers have better heart health than nondrinkers — provided they don’t drink too much caffeine.

    Coffee isn’t expensive or time consuming. I pay about $7 for 12oz of ground coffee, and it lasts for at least a couple weeks’ worth of brewing an 8-cup pot of fresh coffee every morning.

    I suppose if you pay someone else to make your coffee it would cost more, but that would be a massive waste of money to do on a regular basis.

      My comment was less on the specifics (cost/time) and more on causation vs correlation. See Sop’s comment for a much better potential cause. I agree, the cost/time is a weak argument.
