Researchers have found reasons to believe that coffee does many wonderful things: it reduces the risk of gallstones, colon cancer, liver disease and Parkinson’s, and of course, it boosts endurance. Almost forgot: it may ward off dementia. Now comes new research, published in the journal Stroke, that suggests that drinking coffee lowers stroke risk by 22 to 25 percent over a decade, at least for women.The Boston Globe reports on the Swedish study– in which nearly 35,000 women were followed for a decade after reporting their coffee intake on a 1997 dietary survey. Women in the study who drank as little as one cup a day to more than five cups a day had a lower stroke risk than those who drank none, although there was no greater benefit to drinking four or five cups a day.
