Drinking The Right Amount of Coffee Has Benefits

0

ORLANDO, Fla. (Ivanhoe Newswire) — Coffee consumption is on the rise in the U.S. According to the National Coffee Association, 67% of adults drink coffee daily. Researchers say that cup of joe could be good for you too… if you stick to the right amount.

Pouring a cup is part of the morning routine for most people.

And while many drink it for the flavor or the caffeine… it has some other perks.

“There are some studies that show a lot of actually nutrition benefits to coffee,” said registered dietitian Ashley Hinds.

A recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism found it can lower the risk of Type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, and stroke. The benefits were highest for someone who drank a moderate amount of coffee: three cups or 200-300 milligrams of caffeine a day. Mayo Clinic says coffee can also lower the risk of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, liver disease, certain cancers, and kidney stones.

“The caveat though is, of course, caffeine,” said Hinds.

Dietitians say it’s important to be mindful of how much caffeine is consumed a day. Too much can also negatively impact health.

“Caffeine can actually increase our anxiety, and it can disrupt our sleep cycle,” explained Hinds.

Also consider how much sugar, cream, and other things are added to each cup.

Mayo Clinic warns caffeine has been linked to an increased risk of miscarriage. It suggests women who are pregnant or trying to get pregnant reduce caffeine intake to 200 milligrams, which is about two eight-ounce cups.
