Coffee can be a blessing in disguise for coffee addicts. As per a study published in the American Chemical Society's Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, consuming coffee can help in preventing type II diabetes.

It's the caffeine which works wonders. Under the study, coffee was fed to lab mice and it was found out to prevent the development of high blood sugar and improved insulin sensitivity in the mice. It has also been found out that coffee leads to considerable improvement in the case of fatty liver, a disorder where fat builds up in liver cells which further brings down the risk of diabetes.

Studies have shown that caffeine is one of the most effective anti diabetic compound in coffee. Seems I will have to up my coffee consumption if I want to escape diabetes.
