women who drink at least four cups of coffee a day are less than half as likely to develop diabetes as non-coffee drinkers.

That's a mighty strong correlation.

Wow! I Love my coffee and I drink about several 1/2 cups during a morning that equal about 3-4 cups. Coffee doesn't effect my mc at all. So that's great news. I have recently lost about 15 lbs ( stress will do thatI ) and it's because I was wanting to take weight off my knees~Even tho I have been in remission 2005 (occasionaly a food slip) Here lately I have had some flares~That I attribute to dealing with Mikes Cancer. But it has forced me to rethink the way eat and what I eat~I got a bit lax while in remission. It hit me in te potty room and let me knoe It was still there, so it's back to a food diary and a whole lot of careful!!

That research group is probably waiting as we speak, for the funding to come through so that they can investigate that as their next project.
