Research shows coffee may inhibit harmful protein folding linked to type 2 diabetes. Four or more cups daily may reduce risk by up to 50%.

If you're drinking coffee to stay alert, you might also be protecting yourself from type 2 diabetes—without realising it. Multiple studies have found a clear link: people who regularly drink coffee develop type 2 diabetes less often. But until recently, no one knew exactly why. New research from China is uncovering the biochemical reason behind the effect, and it involves your body’s response to a key protein linked to the disease.
