Just two to three cups of coffee a day may reduce the risk of a stroke by almost 20 per cent. A study of 83,000women over a 24 year period showed coffee lovers were much less likely to suffer a clot on the brain. The team said it was unlikely that the protection came from caffeine. Other caffeinated drinks did not have the same benefit but  decaffeniated coffee did.
