1. Drinking coffee makes you smarter

Drinking coffee not only refreshes you, but also improves your intelligence.

The main ingredient in coffee is caffeine. People from all over the world generally take caffeine to achieve the purpose of refreshing the mind. Caffeine can block the blocking effect of adenosine on brain nerves, thereby increasing the transmission efficiency of brain nerves, and can also stimulate the secretion of dopamine and norepinephrine in the human body. Many studies have shown that caffeine can improve mood, increase reaction efficiency, improve memory, and enhance reaction speed and cognitive ability.

2. Drinking coffee can burn fat and improve exercise results

Many weight loss pills on the market contain caffeine. In fact, caffeine can improve the efficiency of the nervous system, thereby speeding up the body's metabolism and accelerating fat burning.

Caffeine can also speed up the secretion of fatty acids in adipose tissue, thereby improving athletes' performance. Both survey reports show that caffeine can increase the effect of exercise by 11%-12%.

3. Drinking coffee can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes

Type 2 diabetes is the leading epidemic of our time, with the number of people suffering from the disease increasing nearly 10-fold in the past few decades to more than 300 million people. The disease can cause the body to produce insulin antibodies or weaken the production of insulin, thereby increasing blood sugar concentrations. Studies have shown that drinking coffee can significantly reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, reducing the probability by between 23% and 67%.

A survey involving 400,000 people showed that drinking one more cup of coffee a day can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by 7%. It can be said that the more coffee you drink, the lower the risk of the disease.

4. Coffee can reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease

Coffee not only makes you smarter in the short term, but also protects your brain in the long term.

Alzheimer's disease is a common neurological disease, and severe cases will have symptoms such as dementia. Studies show that people who drink coffee every day are 60% less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease than the average person. Parkinson's disease is also a common neurological disease that causes the brain to stop secreting dopamine. Drinking coffee can reduce the risk of the disease by 32%-60%.

5. Drinking coffee protects your liver

The liver is one of the most important organs in the human body. However, it is very fragile and is easily damaged by alcohol and fructose. Cirrhosis is one of the main symptoms of late-stage hepatitis, which is caused by the replacement of a large amount of liver tissue with scar tissue.

Many studies have shown that drinking coffee can reduce the risk of liver cirrhosis by 80%, with drinking four cups of coffee a day being the best. Coffee can also reduce the risk of liver cancer by 40%.

6. Drinking coffee can reduce mortality

Many people still believe that drinking coffee is bad for your health. This is not surprising, as traditional beliefs are generally contrary to scientific findings. However, it has been proven that drinking coffee can reduce mortality. Its main effect is that it reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes. Some studies even claim that coffee drinkers are 30% less likely to die in the next 20 years than ordinary people.

7. Coffee is rich in nutrients and has antioxidant properties

Coffee is more than just a simple black drink. It is rich in nutrients, including a variety of vitamins and minerals. For example, a cup of coffee contains: 6% vitamin B5, 11% vitamin B2, 2% vitamin B3, B1 and 3% potassium and thiamine.

This may not seem like much, but over time, the amount of nutrients in the body will increase. Not only that, coffee is also rich in antioxidants. Coffee is considered the number one antioxidant food in the Western diet, even higher than various antioxidant fruits and vegetables.

But at the same time, please note:

Although drinking coffee is good for the human body, you should not drink too much. There are many claims about the effects of coffee on health that have not been scientifically confirmed. But generally speaking, coffee is definitely good for the human body. In order to ensure a healthier coffee drinking experience, do not add too much sugar to the coffee. In addition, in order not to affect the quality of sleep, please do not drink coffee after 2 pm.
