Coffee is certainly one of thescience's most investigated beverage by sciencebeverages. 

Recently, I found athe websiteLifehacker website stating that it could reduce risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease by as much as 60%.:

According to further research, regular coffee drinkers may have less of a risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease in later life – by as much as 60%!

However, for another claim on the website citesame page, it cites the "British Coffee Association" that I. I do not takeaccept that as a credible source and for. For that specific claim, above, we only get a "According "According to further research" without any source.

Is there any scientific evidencesevidence supporting that claim?
