Coffee 'protects female memory'
Coffee is known to act on the brain
Caffeine may help older women ward off mental decline, research suggests.
French researchers compared women aged 65 and older who drank more than three cups of coffee per day with those who drank one cup or less per day. Those who drank more caffeine showed less decline in memory tests over a four year period. The study, published in the journal Neurology, raises the possibility that caffeine may even protect against the development of dementia.

I knew there was a reason for me drinking it, I just couldn't remember what.
