Starbucks may be on to something

Many recent medical studies support the contention that coffee is the "elixir of the Gods"... Apparently, up to six cups of coffee a day may help reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes, alcohol related cirrhoses and liver cancer.

Coffee is a rich source of anti oxidants and thus my reduce the inflammation association with certain disease states.

It is interesting to note that caffeine isnt a factor as decaf coffee apparently had the same benefits.

Maybe if we push the envelope...we can get medicare to pay for our starbucks card...(dont hold your breath)...
