▍原文
In a new observational study involving close to 20,000 individuals, people who consumed at least four cups of coffee daily had a 64% lower risk of early death compared to those never or rarely consumed coffee.
The reduction in risk was more significant once people reached the age of 45, suggesting that it may be even more beneficial to consume coffee, as we get older.
Coffee has also been shown to reduce the risk of many diseases, including type 2 diabetes, liver disease, Alzheimer's and skin cancer, too.
