A study of more than 4,000 Koreans adds evidence that drinking
coffee may lower the risk for developing type 2 diabetes and reveals
that a genetic factor could be involved. The researchers found both
Korean men and women who drank at least one cup of black coffee a day
were less likely to develop prediabetes or type 2 diabetes than those
who drank no coffee. The association between drinking coffee and lowered
risk for type 2 diabetes was strongest for Koreans with a genetic
variation known as rs2074356, which was recently found to be linked with
habitual coffee consumption
