The Claim
Higher caffeine consumption (>300 mg/day) is associated with a greater reduction in Alzheimer’s disease progression compared to low caffeine intake (<100 mg/day), as indicated by hazard ratios of 0.71 versus 0.94, suggesting a dose-response relationship in observational data.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
People who drink a lot of coffee or tea—more than 300 mg of caffeine a day—might see their memory problems from Alzheimer’s slow down more than people who drink very little caffeine, based on studies that track groups over time.

What the research says
1 studyThis study found that people who drink more coffee (over 300 mg of caffeine a day) tend to decline more slowly from Alzheimer’s than those who drink very little, which matches what the claim says.
