A Massive New Harvard Study Says Women should Drink Coffee – Lots of Coffee

another coffee study — this one led by a Harvard researcher who analyzed data on 47,513 women and their coffee-drinking habits over decades, and found something remarkable about what happens to them as they age.

Researchers determined that a little over 3,706 of the original group, whose coffee consumption tracked beginning in 1984, were still alive in 2016, and were living lives that fit the researchers’ definition of “healthy aging.”

This included things like:

  • Being 70 years old or older
  • Self-reporting good mental and physical health
  • Having no reported memory problems or cognitive impairment, and;
  • being free of 11 chronic diseases — among them: “cancer, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, kidney failure, Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis.”

Now comes the really good news for anyone — but especially women — who drinks a lot of coffee.

More coffee? More healthy aging

In short, the women in the study who habitually drank at least one cup of coffee a day were statistically much more likely to be among those 3,706 women who stayed strong, mentally sharp, and healthy as they grew older.

“While past studies have linked coffee to individual health outcomes, our study is the first to assess coffee’s impact across multiple domains of aging over three decades,” said presenting author Dr. Sara Mahdavi, a post-doctoral fellow at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health at Harvard University and an adjunct professor at the University of Toronto, Faculty of Medicine.

The findings were set to be presented earlier this month at NUTRITION 2025, the annual conference of the American Society for Nutrition.

That said, the new study takes its place as the latest in a long line of studies we’ve seen that suggest drinking coffee is related to some very powerful, positive health effects.

Among them:

  • A 2018 study of 500,000 people in JAMA Internal Medicine found an unmistakable across-the-board increase in longevity among people who drink lots of coffee.
  • A study last year on the coffee consumption habits of 40,725 Americans who were included in the 19-year-long U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey found that drinking coffee specifically in the morning was associated with a lower risk of death or cardiovascular disease.
  • A study of lifestyle, health, and biographical data published in 2022 relating to 171,616 people in Great Britain found that both men and women between the ages of 37 and 73 who drank between 1.5 and 3.5 cups of coffee each day had up to 30 percent lower chance of dying from any cause during the 7-year study period than those who did not.
  • A 2023 study in the Journal of the American Medical Directors Association followed the coffee habits of 12,583 participants over 20 years and determined that those who drank copious amounts of coffee were twice as likely to avoid becoming physically frail as they aged into their 70s.
  • Maybe most intriguingly, a study of 347,077 coffee drinkers out of the University of South Australia in 2019 found that health benefits increase the more coffee people drink — but only up to five cups per day. Beyond that, the Australian researchers found, the risk of heart disease actually starts to increase.
