Hi Anonymous,

There is so much information if there are effects in a positive way or negative way in regard to diabetes and coffee. This was a recent study that explains that it is actually good to have coffee, you can read the article here http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/01/110113102200.htm.

I would certainly suggest that you talk to your treating physician.

 

Good luck,

Missie
