Coffee is a woman's friend

Good Morning, I am good for you
That cappuccino, that café au lait, that miniature steaming caldera (I am under the impression we aren’t really to say ‘coffee’ any more) you drink every morning could stave off depression. Studies recently published in the Archives of Internal Medicine have found that women who drink coffee regularly are less likely to develop depression. The study took place from 1996 to 2006 and involved over 50, 000 US female nurses who recorded their coffee consumption over this time.

2600 of these women developed depression, the majority of which drank either no or little coffee. Those who drank 2 to 3 cups a day reduced their risk of depression by 15% and those who drank an inhuman amount reduced their risk by 20%

Regular coffee drinkers were also more likely to drink alcohol, smoke and be wicked cool.

Although scientists say it is too soon to start encouraging women to drink more coffee, you’ll take my mug of black coffee from my cold dead jittery hands.
