Scientists have found that even decaffeinated coffee has health benefits.

Researchers from the universities of Navarra in Spain and Catania in Italy found a connection between coffee consumption and metabolic syndrome.

Metabolic syndrome, or MetS, is a combination of diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure) and obesity, which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, heart attacks and strokes.

Studies have shown that drinking 3-4 cups of coffee per day is associated with an approximately 25% reduction in the risk of developing type 2 diabetes compared to drinking no more or less than two cups for 24 hours.

Thousands of cases from eight different countries were examined, which showed a statistically significant positive relationship between coffee consumption and the subsequent risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

Scientists claim that every additional cup of coffee, up to six to eight cups per day, was associated with a five to ten percent reduction in the risk of developing this disease.

Associate Professor Giuseppe Grosso of the University of Catania did this research.

The data show that polyphenols filled with antioxidants in coffee can be involved in preventing metabolic syndrome.

He also reviewed previous studies that suggested that moderate coffee consumption could help reduce cardiovascular disease, cancer, and 2 type diabetes.

Studies have also shown that coffee consumption of three to five cups per day is associated with an 15 percent reduction in the risk of heart disease.

Estefania Toledo from the University of Navarra and the Spanish Biomedical Center, said the tests showed "a connection between coffee consumption and a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes" and added that "long-term coffee consumption is associated with a reduced risk of hypertension."

A study by women from the United Kingdom showed that flavanols and hydroxycinnamic acids are the most important polyphenols found in tea and coffee.

Scientists said that both men and women participated in the study, the results were the same regardless of gender. Scientists also added that more research is needed to find out the reasons underlying the relationship between coffee and metabolic syndrome.
