In this episode, we delve into the research surrounding coffee and its effect on our health.
Tara uncovers some intriguing insights that challenge the popular notion of giving up coffee altogether.
Despite the common misconception that coffee is harmful, numerous studies have actually linked moderate coffee consumption to several health benefits.
Did you know that drinking coffee is associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality? That's right, your daily cup of joe might just be contributing to a longer lifespan!
Multiple large studies and meta-analyses have consistently shown that moderate coffee consumption, ranging from 1 to 3 cups a day (or even up to 2 to 5 cups), is generally not associated with negative health effects. In fact, it may have significant benefits for conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, liver disease, depression, certain types of cancer, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease.
Here's a sneak peek of what we uncover:
1️⃣ The health benefits associated with moderate coffee consumption.
2️⃣ How coffee may protect your liver from diseases like nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
3️⃣ The potential role of coffee in lowering the risk of certain GI tract cancers.
4️⃣ Coffee's impact on vascular health and its potential to reduce the risk of heart disease.
5️⃣ The relationship between coffee consumption and metabolic health, including its potential to lower the risk of type 2 diabetes.
