Ganolife Coffee May Reduce the risk of Diabetes Part 2

Where as those who reduced their consumption by at least one cup per day increased their risk by 17 per cent.

The study conducted by a team at Harvard School of Public Health also found people who drank three or more cups of coffee a day and did not change their drinking habits had a 37 per cent lower risk of diabetes than those who always drank less than one cup per day.

The research published in Diabetologia found no link between tea drinking and type 2 diabetes.

However other experts said it cannot be ruled out that other factors could account for the link, such as people at risk of type 2 diabetes cutting their coffee consumption or other lifestyle factors that tend to go hand in hand with consuming large amounts of coffee.

Authors Dr Frank Hu and Dr Shilpa Bhupathiraju, of the Department of Nutrition at Harvard wrote in the paper: “Changes in coffee consumption habits appear to affect diabetes risk in a relatively short amount of time.

"Our findings confirm those of prospective studies that higher coffee consumption is associated with a lower type 2 diabetes risk and provide novel evidence that changes in coffee consumption habits are related to diabetes risk.”

Ganolife Coffee May Reduce the risk of Diabetes

Drinking more coffee may cut the risk of diabetes

Coffee consumption has been linked to lower risk of diabetes.

By Rebecca Smith, Medical Editor6:31AM BST 25 Apr 2014

Increasing the amount of coffee you drink can reduce the risk of developing type two diabetes, study concludes.

Drinking more than three cups of a coffee a day may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by a third, a study has suggested, with those who drink more over time also cutting their chances of the disease.

It was found that people who increased their coffee consumption by an average of one a half cups a day in one four year period were 11 per cent less likely to be diagnosed with diabetes.

Two cups of Ganolife coffee will make people more ethical

Well, here's another reason to brew some coffee in the morning! A new study by three college professors found that just two cups of coffee can keep you more honest. "Researchers found that only two cups of caffeinated stuff will make workers more ethical." Study co-author Michael Christian says people are often mistaken when they think about who the "best" worker is. "We tend to think of people who work non stop as the best employees. But they are often the ones making the worst ethical choices." "If you're sleep deprived and can't think straight, it could affect your decisions. They found that caffeine can give sleep-deprived individuals the extra energy needed to resist unethical behavior." Volunteers were kept awake for an entire night, and separated into two groups. In the morning, one group was given a wintergreen placebo gum to munch on, while the other group was given gum laced with 200 milligrams of caffeine. The results? Well, you may have guessed it! CNN tells us the volunteers who were given the laced gum "balked when researchers urged them to cheat." While those who were given the placebo gum "showed a marked willingness to cast conscience aside and go along with the deception." "Researchers say caffeine could help you resist by strengthening your self-control and willpower when you're exhausted." As HLN notes, the study even suggests workplaces offer free coffee and nap spaces to help employees stay ethical.

Ganolife Coffee May Reduce Liver Cancer Risks Part 2

What's more, those reductions held even after researchers accounted for other things known to increase a person's risk for liver cancer such as age, obesity, smoking, drinking, sex and diabetes. However, the study was only designed to show association, not to prove a cause-and-effect relationship. There may be something else common to coffee drinkers that also reduces cancer risk. Still, it's not the first study to uncover such a link. A review published last year in the journal Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, which combined the results of 16 different studies involving more than 3,200 patients, concluded that drinking more than three cups of coffee a day might cut the risk of liver cancer by as much as 50 percent. One expert praised the most recent research. "This is a really well-done study," said Susan Gapstur, vice president of epidemiology for the American Cancer Society. "It adds to the growing body of evidence that coffee might be associated with a lower risk for a number of cancers." Beyond liver cancer, studies have suggested that coffee may be tied to reduced risk for head and neck cancers, colorectal cancers, prostate cancer, and bladder, endometrial, esophageal and pancreatic cancers. What researchers don't yet understand is how coffee may ward off cancer. "That's what everybody wants to know," said study author V. Wendy Setiawan, an assistant professor in the department of preventive medicine at the USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center in Los Angeles. Setiawan says coffee has close to 100 active compounds including antioxidants, polyphenols and caffeine. It's also known to affect liver enzymes. "At this time, I don't think anybody has any idea what compound is protective," she said. For more information about Ganolife Gourmet Coffee, Please contact me at ganoforlifeusa@gmail.com.

Ganolife Coffee May Lower Liver Cancer Risks

Another Reason to Drink Coffee: It Lowers Liver Cancer Risk By Brenda Goodman, HealthDay News. Researchers say they've discovered yet another reason to love coffee: A new study suggests that people who drink at least a cup a day have a lower risk of liver cancer compared to those who only indulge occasionally. The study was to be presented Wednesday at the annual meeting of the American Association of Cancer Researchers in San Diego. Research presented at meetings should be viewed as preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed medical journal. When the study started in the 1990s, researchers asked nearly 180,000 adults of different racial and ethnic backgrounds about their coffee drinking and other lifestyle habits. Study participants have now been tracked for as long as 18 years, and researchers have kept tabs on how many have developed hepatocellular carcinoma, the most common kind of liver cancer. So far, 498 study participants have been diagnosed. People who said they drank one to three cups of coffee a day had a 29 percent reduced risk of liver cancer compared to those who drank six cups or less each week. And more was apparently better: People who regularly had more than four cups of coffee a day had a 42 percent reduced risk, according to the study. To put that in perspective, one in 81 men and one in 196 women will get liver cancer over the course of their lives, according to the American Cancer Society. A 29 percent risk reduction lowers the odds of that diagnosis to one in 104 for men and one in 253 for women.
