    After having illustrated the benefits and contraindications of coffee, here is a new study on the beneficial properties of the most popular drink in the world. According to Swedish research, led by Dr. Susanna Larsson, coffee would be able to reduce the risk of stroke in women.




    The data obtained from the Swedish study will have to be further investigated (so there is no need to encourage the massive and indiscriminate consumption of coffee), but from what emerged from the research published in the "Journal of the American Heart Association”, There would seem to be new and interesting bases for deepening the studies on the effects of this drink.

    According to Larsson, a National Institute of Environmental Medicine scholar at Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, there is a lot of evidence to support the fact that the coffee consumption may actually decrease the risk of certain diseases such as diabetes, liver cancer and possibly stroke as well.

    But how did they come to these conclusions?
    Larsson, together with her team, carried out a study - which lasted about 10 years - on 35.000 women, aged between 49 and 83, following and studying the consequences of coffee on every woman.
    In short, those who take at least one cup of mocha a day see a 22-25% reduction in stroke risk compared to those who drink less.
    On the other hand, coffee it has a number of drawbacks, Such as'increased blood pressure, and some studies carried out last year have even shown an increased risk of stroke in the hours after drinking coffee.

    In short, as Larsson said: "coffee is one of the most consumed drinks in the world, so even small effects on health could have major consequences on public health".
    Too bad it is still early to draw a precise and irrefutable picture on the effects of this drink.
    As always, even in this case, we recommend moderate use of any beverage other than plain water, including coffee!
