Drinking three cups of coffee a day could extend your life, research suggests. Two major studies, one led by British researchers and one in the US, have independently found consuming up to three cups a day reduces the risk of an early death. It found men who drank three cups of coffee a day were 18 per cent less likely to die over that period, when compared to people who did not drink coffee at all. Women who drank three cups a day had an 8 per cent reduced chance of death. Americans who consumed a cup of coffee a day were 12 per cent less likely to die compared to those who didn’t drink coffee, and those who drank three cups had an 18 per cent reduced chance of death.
