Researchers have claimed that drinking a cup of coffee everyday could be the secret to long life.
The 56 percent who were moderate coffee drinkers, consuming between one and two cups a day, had the best arterial health, with their blood vessels behaving like those found in younger people. Their arteries were more elastic than those measured in people who drank little or no coffee.
Around one in 10 who drank three or more cups a day had the least elasticity. Dr Chrysohoou said moderate coffee drinkers consumed 25-50ml of coffee a day.
ngredients such as caffeine and antioxidants may partly improve arterial function by increasing the ability to take up nitric oxide, which is impaired in hypertensive patients.
"They were socialising, with friends in cafeterias or with family at home, relaxing and discussing daily matters. It''s done in good spirit, which is psychologically important,'
