4. Reduced Diabetes Risk
Type 2 diabetes is a health problem that affects millions of people around the world, with those affected suffering from high sugar levels because of insulin resistance or difficulty in secreting insulin. But coffee drinkers have a reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes, and studies have found that those who drink the most coffee daily have the lowest risk of getting type 2 diabetes.
Some studies, however, also show that caffeine can hamper insulin sensitivity.
