TOP 5 HEALTH BENEFITS OF COFFEE

                  TOP 5 HEALTH BENEFITS OF THE COFFEE

What comes to your mind when you hear the word COFFEE ?? 

The rich aroma of the coffee beans. The creamy milk…Or the energy you get after sipping a cup of coffee…For me, it's all three. But people used to say to me that, “ Hey, don’t drink too much coffee. It isn’t good for your health. It’ll affect your health badly.” Yes, I agree with this to some extent because too much of anything is good for nothing. But like any other product, coffee also has some super-duper health benefits. 

Interested to know the health benefits of coffee ??

Then take a quick dive into my blog to know more….

1. Coffee helps you to lose weight.

              Yes, coffee can help you with weight loss. Drinking black coffee without adding sugar (add a pinch if you need it for taste) is good for weight loss. Drink coffee in moderation. Try not to exceed more than 4 cups per day.

1. Coffee reduces the risk of cancer.

             Don’t be surprised, guys. Recent studies show that coffee may lower cancer risk ( head, neck, colon, breast, liver, etc.). Roasted coffee contains hundreds of biologically active components like caffeine, flavonoids, lignans, and other polyphenols, which help reduce the risk of cancer.

1. Coffee reduces the risk of stroke.

              A study from 2011 shows that compared to no consumption, consumption of 2 cups of coffee per day reduces the risk of stroke by 14%, and consumption of 3 cups per day reduces the risk of stroke by 17%.

1. Coffee reduces the risk of Parkinson’s Disease.

             Drinking coffee regularly may help in reducing the risk of many neurodegenerative diseases. Some data suggest that drinking 3 cups of coffee per day reduces the risk of developing Parkinson’s Disease ( a progressive nervous system disorder that affects the movement of our body) by up to 30%.

1. Coffee reduces the risk of heart failure.

             A big Yes. Some studies (Framingham and Cardiovascular Health studies) suggest that the risk of heart failure has been reduced by 5-12% for people who consume one cup per day compared to people with no coffee consumption.

Interesting, isn't it?

Wait. Since you read my blog, I have a bonus for you.

Like our physical health, mental health is equally important. Coffee brightens your mood, helps fight depression, and lowers the risk of suicide. Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system and boosts the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and noradrenaline, which elevate your mood. Two cups of coffee a day prevents the risk of suicide by 50 %. It also improves our mood. In addition, coffee helps you stay focused and alert, boost your physical performance, helps you to burn fat, reduces the risk of Type II diabetes, etc.

As I said before, Too much of anything is good for nothing.

So, grab a cup of coffee and enjoy your day !!!
