10 Reasons Why You Should Drink Coffee

1. Coffee contains antioxidants.

According to research, coffee contains significantly more antioxidants than common fruits and vegetables. Antioxidants have the effect of preventing aging.

2. The aroma of coffee relieves stress.

Researchers at Seoul National University discovered changes in brain proteins when experimental mice experiencing stress from sleep deprivation were exposed to the scent of coffee. Interestingly, the coffee scent does not directly affect all types of stress but only influences stress caused by sleep deprivation. This could be helpful for those experiencing stress due to lack of sleep.

3. It can alleviate the symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

According to Science Daily in 2012, Dr. Ronald Postuma's research data proved the fact that Parkinson's patients experience improved activity levels when they drink coffee.

4. Coffee is good for the liver.

A study conducted over 22 years with 125,000 participants was published in 2006. The conclusion was that people who drink one cup of coffee a day have a 20% lower incidence of liver cirrhosis. Researchers from Duke University and the National University of Singapore School of Medicine stated that drinking more than four cups of coffee or tea a day can prevent non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

5. Coffee makes you happy.

A study by the U.S. health authorities found that people who drink more than two cups of coffee a day are 10% less likely to develop depression than those who do not drink coffee. Dr. Holleychan explained that this is not only due to the effects of caffeine but also because of the antioxidant components contained in coffee.

Drinking coffee reduces the risk of suicide.

According to research from Harvard School of Public Health, drinking 2 to 4 cups of coffee a day stimulates the release of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, which help prevent depression and can reduce the suicide rate by about 50%.

7. Coffee especially reduces skin cancer risk in women.

Researchers from Brigham University and Harvard Medical School have found through a 20-year follow-up study of 112,897 men and women that women who drink three or more cups of coffee a day have a lower incidence of skin cancer compared to women who do not.

8. Coffee reduces the risk of developing diabetes.

According to research by the American Chemical Society, people who drink more than four cups of coffee a day have a 50% reduced risk of developing diabetes. Drinking additional cups beyond four further decreases the risk by 7% each.

Drinking coffee helps maintain long-term brain health.

A study conducted in South Florida / Miami University revealed that participants aged 65 and older with high blood caffeine levels experienced a delay of approximately 2 to 4 years in the onset of Alzheimer's disease. Neuroscientist Chanhai Kuo stated, "While drinking coffee cannot prevent Alzheimer's disease, it can reduce the risk or delay its onset."

10. Coffee enhances cognitive abilities.

Coffee not only stimulates the brain but also helps improve concentration and promotes efficient thinking.
