6 Benefits of Drinking Coffee You Need to Know

Many people like to drink coffee because of its thick aroma, its taste is a bit ‘bitter’, or the caffeine that has an effect on preventing drowsiness.

It is packed with antioxidants and beneficial nutrients that can improve health. That is why many people are crazy about coffee. Here are some benefits of drinking coffee that you must know.

1. Coffee can give a sense of happiness

The researchers found that drinking coffee can provide positive emotions, including pleasure, kindness, affection, satisfaction, friendship, and calmness. This finding also notes that no negative emotions arise due to coffee consumption.

2. Coffee contains antioxidants

Coffee beans are actually seeds in small fruit that are bright red or yellow. Both seeds and fruit are rich in antioxidants. In fact, there is one study that found coffee to be the biggest contributor to antioxidant intake.

Nonetheless, antioxidants in coffee have been linked to health protection. Chlorogenic acid, an abundant polyphenol in coffee, has been shown to reduce inflammation and may provide protection against chronic diseases, including obesity.

3. Reducing the risk of developing type two diabetes

The researchers found that coffee can reduce diabetes by 6 percent for each cup per day. Some scientists say that there are antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of coffee, the ability to increase calorie burning, and have an impact on intestinal microbial diversity, so as to protect health.

4. Improve the quality of exercise

Coffee can improve the quality of exercise. Several studies have shown that consuming coffee in moderate doses can improve the quality of exercise.

The effects include increased muscle strength, endurance, and strength, plus reduced pain during exercise. It can help the body become stronger during exercise so it results in increased muscle strength and better endurance.

5. Protect the body from various diseases

Studies show that coffee consumption can protect the body from certain cancers, such as breast, colorectal, endometrial, and prostate, as well as heart disease and Parkinson’s. Coffee consumption can also reduce the risk of stroke.

6. Stimulates brain health

In terms of brain health, caffeinated coffee increases alertness and can also improve memory for up to 24 hours after consumption. Coffee consumption also increases concentration power.

Even though enjoying coffee has a number of benefits, you also shouldn’t consume it excessively. Drinking coffee should not be more than 5 shot glasses or 2.5 tall glasses. Avoid as much as possible avoid the addition of artificial sweeteners or added sugar. Stop caffeine intake at least six hours before bedtime to optimize sleep. If caffeine is not compatible with your body’s metabolism, then try to drink coffee without caffeine content.
