The Pap smear is currently the best test available for the prevention of most cases of cervical cancer. All women between the ages of 18 and 70 should have a Pap smear every two years. Women should start having Pap smears between 18 and 20 years of age or one to two years after becoming sexually active. It is important to know that no screening test is 100 per cent accurate.

Coffee has been associated with a reduced risk of developing diabetes. Caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee may have components other than caffeine that reduce blood glucose concentrations.

This one study was conducted on 10 people with type 2 diabetes, using caffeine capsules. The dose was an equivalent of drinking 4 cups of coffee.
