A 10-year Swedish Mammography Cohort Study looked at the connection between lifestyle and disease development. The study included 34,670 women between the ages of 48 to 83. All the women were healthy and without cardiovascular disease at the start of the study.
The study found women who consumed one or more cups of coffee per day throughout the ten year study had a reduced stroke risk of 22-25% compared to the women drinking less than one cup of coffee daily.
Women consuming more than 5 cups of coffee show the same benefits as those drinking one cup.
