"Caffeine is known to decrease the body's response to insulin. However, other ingredients found in coffee --
magnesium and chlorogenic acid -- may have beneficial effects ... researchers followed more than 17,000 Dutch adults. After several years of follow-up, those who drank seven or more cups a day were half as likely to develop type 2 diabetes compared with

be a better choice than drinking seven cups of coffee per day. See
