Coffee Intake Associated with Decreased Stroke in Woman
February 19, 2009 — "A new analysis of data from the Nurses' Health Study
shows that long-term intake of up to 4 or more cups of coffee per day was not
associated with an increased risk for stroke and actually appeared to be
protective against stroke in women who did not also smoke.
Among women who currently smoked, there appeared to be no effect of
coffee intake, neither raising nor lowering stroke risk. No association was seen
with other caffeinated drinks, including tea or soft drinks, and decaffeinated
coffee still showed a trend toward a protective effect.
"Our data support the hypothesis that components in coffee other than
caffeine may lower the risk for stroke, although the association was modest and
the biological mechanism is unclear," the researchers, with first author Ester
Lopez-Garcia, PhD, from the Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, Spain, and
colleagues at the Harvard School of Public Health, in Boston, Massachusetts,
conclude.
