"The study followed over 131,000 participants in the U.S. who did not have cancer, Parkinson's disease or dementia at the start of the study as a baseline."

"Higher caffeinated coffee intake was significantly associated with lower dementia risk and a lower prevalence of subjective cognitive decline."

"The most significant association with lower dementia risk was seen with participants who consumed approximately 2 to 3 cups per day of caffeinated coffee or 1 to 2 cups per day of tea."

"People with the highest daily intake of coffee compared to those with the lowest intake were at an 18% lower risk of developing dementia."

A long-term study involving over 131,000 participants found that moderate coffee and tea consumption is associated with a reduced risk of dementia.

Higher coffee intake correlated with lower dementia risk and better cognitive performance. The most significant benefits were observed with 2 to 3 cups of coffee or 1 to 2 cups of tea daily, leading to an 18% lower risk of dementia for high coffee consumers.
