Cancer of the skin. The sunscreen is still necessary, but women who take more than three eight-ounce cups a day were 20% less likely to develop basal cell carcinoma - the most common cause of cancer in the skin-that those who have less than one cup per month, according to a study presented at the conference of the American Association for Cancer Research. The cafe is full of antioxidants that fight inflammation.
Depression. Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant, which usually helps people feel better and more energized. That could be the reason why women who drank four cups of regular coffee daily were 20% less likely to become depressed over a period of 10 years than those taking a cup or less per week average, according to research published by Archives of Internal Medicine.
AD. Many studies have found an association between coffee and a lower rate between Alzheimer and other dementias. In a Finnish trial, those taking between three to five cups daily in their 40 and 50 years were 65% less likely to develop Alzheimer's in its 60 and 70 than those who drank two cups or less daily. The magic ingredient seems to be a compound that works together with caffeine to produce new brain cells and strengthen the connections between them.
