Coffee, Tea Health Benefits: Curb Diabetes Risk With Daily Drink

'A daily dose of coffee, decaf or tea can reduce the risk of getting Type 2 diabetes by 25 to 35 percent, according to a new study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine.

Specifically, four cups of coffee or tea a day can lead to the 25 to 35 percent decrease in chances of getting diabetes -- or a 7 percent lowering of risk for every cup.
