Drinking coffee habitually linked to stronger bones in new study
Researchers studied 564 people and found that habitual coffee drinkers had a high bone mineral density than non-coffee drinkers.

There's plenty of speculation about the health risks and benefits of drinking coffee.

Researchers studied 564 people and found that habitual coffee drinkers had a high bone mineral density than non-coffee drinkers. The measurement reflects the strength of a person's bones.

This information may be encouraging news to java enthusiasts, but doctors say it is important to consider the small size of this study.
