(Women) Coffee Drinkers Live Longer

Could it be true that women coffee drinkers live longer? Geezer believes it could, but it depends on what they live longer than. Well, according to research conducted at the Autonoma University in Madrid, Spain, women who drank two or three cups of caffeinated coffee daily had a 25
percent lower risk of death from heart disease during the follow-up
(from 1980 to 2004) than non-drinkers. The women also had an 18 percent
lower death risk from a cause other than cancer or heart disease
compared with non-coffee drinkers.
Wait! What about men? What about men? For men, the researchers found, drinking two to three cups of caffeinated coffee daily was a
"wash" — not associated with either an increased or a decreased risk
of death during the follow up, from 1986 to 2004.
