Coffee may lower risk of Alzheimer's

That's right: Just one daily cup of coffee may cut the risk of Alzheimer's disease, the most common kind of dementia, new research suggests.

Caffeine blocks the bad effects of high cholesterol found linked to dementia.

The University of North Dakota scientists' published report in the Journal of Neuroinflammation is based on research conducted on rabbits fed a high cholesterol food diet.

The rabbits given caffeine had a better blood brain barrier than those that did not ingest caffeine. This study confirms earlier research that caffeine intake protects against memory loss from aging and Alzheimer's disease.

And this is just one more good reason to love drinking coffee.
