Coffee for diabetics

Is coffee good for diabetics?

It has no carbs. That's sure a good thing. Diabetes is about the body not being able to process carbs. If you have no carbs, then no problem.

But, interestingly enough, coffee does have fiber.

Already recognized as a source of healthful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compounds, coffee also contains significantly higher levels of soluble dietary fiber than other commonly consumed beverages, scientists in Spain report.

I'm guessing that no carb fiber content has something to do with the reason coffee appears to be a good diabetes preventive.

And although popular medical beleif is that caffaine raises blood pressure, recent research creates some doubt about that.
