Health Benefits of Coffee: Coffee is a beverage with many positive attributes. It is associated with a lower risk of numerous diseases and is ric (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798302965424)

A large body of evidence suggests that coffee may raise the risk of cardiovascular disease, which is why doctors have long recommended reducing one's coffee consumption. Nevertheless, a plethora of recent studies have uncovered coffee's surprising health advantages. Age, sex, BMI, physical activity, cigarette smoking, and family history of cancer were all factors that were taken in the majority of these studies, as is typical of well-designed research. Researchers ensured that they could isolate the effects of coffee on health from those of people's lifestyle, family history, and prior health issues by adjusting for such factors. A huge UK study indicated that adults who drank more unsweetened or sugar-sweetened coffee had a lower risk of cancer death and a lower risk of death from any cause in the following seven years. However, the type of coffee you drink may affect these health benefits. Having more artificially sweetened coffee did not reduce cancer rates or any other cause of mortality. The most frequent kind of liver cancer was shown to be slightly less common in persons who drank one or two cups of coffee daily compared to non-drinkers, while the risk was nearly half in those who drank three or four cups of coffee daily, compared to non-drinkers. However, the danger was significantly lower for those who drank five or more cups daily-roughly one-third the risk of non-drinkers. In a similar vein, Japanese researchers discovered that daily coffee drinkers had a 76% lower risk of developing that particular form of liver cancer compared to non-drinkers. People with hepatitis C, a virus that raises the risk of liver cancer (though the reason for this is unclear), reaped the greatest benefits. For every cup of coffee consumed daily, the risk of developing cirrhosis is reduced by 22%, according to an 8-year study of 120,000 Americans. Two or more cups of coffee daily was associated with a 40% lower risk of cirrhosis in a 17-year Norwegian study of 51,000 people compared to non-coffee drinkers.
