4. Coffee lowers the rates of some cancers

According to WebMD, coffee drinkers are 50 percent less likely to get liver cancer. By drinking 2 cups per day,
you’re also slashing your risk of getting colon cancer by 25 percent. Some studies have also

5. Coffee can reduce risk for Type 2 diabetes

WebMD also asserts that coffee contains chemicals that lower blood sugar, making heavy coffee drinkers half
as likely to get diabetes as light to non-coffee drinkers. 1-3 cups per day can reduce the risk for diabetes
by single digits, but people who drink 6 cups or more per day can slash their chances by up to 54 percent.

6. Coffee is actually good for your teeth

We all know that one of the biggest cons of drinking coffee is a stained smile, but the beverage can also have a positive
effect on teeth. According to a 2009 article published in the Wall Street Journal, people who drink coffee are
less likely to have cavities. Roasted coffee beans have antibacterial effects against microorganisms
like Streptococcus, which play a hand in causing tooth decay.

7. Coffee can help prevent/stop headaches

Have you ever wondered why caffeine is one of the main ingredients in migraine medication like Excedrin Migraine?
WebMD explains that blood vessels increase in size during a migraine-- caffeine works to decrease the size
of blood vessels before they can affect nerves in the brain. So, drinking coffee in the early
stages of a headache can help minimize the severity later on.
