Question

Drinking coffee is associated with several health benefits

Answer 1

Coffee is associated with several health benefits! I found an article from John Hopkins Medicine confirming this statement. The article states that some benefits of drinking coffee are, "you could live longer, your body may process glucose better, you're less likely to develop heart failure, your liver will thank you, your DNA will be stronger, and you're not as likely to suffer a stroke." A reasoning for each of these benefits was given as well. The article also discussed the appropriate amount of coffee that should be drank per day to receive these benefits. Not misinformation!

Answer 2

It's true. In this article 9 Reasons Why (the Right Amount of) Coffee Is Good for you by John Hopkins Medicine, the author lists 9 health benefits related to drinking coffee.

However, something worth noticing is that in the title it says "the right amount of" because anything without the mention of doses cannot be concluded being healthy. For different people there are different lines of health standards. Like this article from Harvard School of Public Health said, 

" In fact, consumption of 3 to 5 standard cups of coffee daily has been consistently associated with a reduced risk of several chronic diseases. However, some individuals may not tolerate higher amounts of caffeine due to symptoms of jitteriness, anxiety, and insomnia. Specifically, those who have difficulty controlling their blood pressure may want to moderate their coffee intake. Pregnant women are also advised to aim for less than 200 mg of caffeine daily, the amount in 2 cups of coffee, because caffeine passes through the placenta into the fetus and has been associated with pregnancy loss and low birth weight."

This statement is true. From Medical News Today (https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/270202#health-benefits)

According to an article published in Medical News Today, coffee can play a part in preventing several diseases and improving heart health.  Some of these diseases include diabetes, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, depression, CLD, etc. Although coffee shouldn't be consumed like water, it has been proven to have several health benefits when consumed moderately.  

MEDICAL NEWS TODAY - Coffee may help protect against type 2 diabetes. In 2014, researchers who gathered data on over 48,000 people found that those who increased their coffee consumption by at least one cup per day over 4 years had an 11% lower risk of type 2 diabetes than those who did not increase their intake.

The findings of the 2017 meta-analysisTrusted Source suggested a link between coffee consumption and a lower risk of Parkinson’s disease, even among people who smoke. This team also found that people who drink coffee may be less likely to experience depression and cognitive conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Earlier, in 2015, a cohort study of a multiethnic population in the United States suggested that depending on the dose, consuming two to three cups of coffee daily reduced the participants’ risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma and chronic liver disease (CLD) by 38% and 46%Trusted Source, respectively.

In a 2018 study, researchers found that drinking three to five cups of coffee per day may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by 15%. Drinking one to five cups daily also seemed to be associated with lower overall mortality resulting from any cause.

Answer 4

Studies used to suffuse that coffee drinkers tended to encounter a variety of health problems, however, recent studies show that drinking coffee in moderate amounts can lead to health benefits leads to a lower likelihood of type 2 diabetes, heart disease and depression. It is possible that consuming coffee can even increase people's lifespans.

Answer 5

The claim that coffee has several health benefits is true, but also misleading. While there are benefits, there are also many negative effects and it is not recommended you consume coffee to make you "healthier".

It certainly boosts your energy levels. But many of the other listed health benefits such as the ones listed in an article by Healthline, like improving brain health, lowering diabetes risk, weight management, and lowered depression, they are all statements that include the word "may" or "could", and are not officially proved by scientific claims since there has not been enough research done.

Negative effects include increased heart rate, arrythmias, anxiety, insomnia (which can lead to a variety of other health issues), caffeine addiction, muscle tremors, and more.

Answer 6

This is very true. While coffee can have it downsides as well, especially if too much of it is consumed, there are several health benefits to drinking coffee.

According to John Hopkins Medicine, coffee has plenty of health benefits. One of the things the article lines out is the potential to live longer, with coffee making people less likely to die from coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and kidney disease. Additionally, you're less likely to develop heart failure and Parkinson's disease by drinking one or two cups of coffee per day.

Frank Hu, the chair of the Department of Nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, said about coffee: "The overall evidence has been pretty convincing that coffee has been more healthful than harmful in terms of health outcomes." 

Answer 7

This is true. According to Harvard Med drinking coffee may lower the risk of stokes and heart disease. With 83,086 women surveyed who drink coffee everyday, 20% of them were associated with lower risk of stroke compared to non-drinkers. There was also an association that people who drink moderates amount coffee are often connected to longer life spans than those who don't.

Answer 8

Coffee can lead to health benefits and recent studies have proved it. According to Harvard article, researcher Hu stated that about 2-5 cups of coffee a day is "linked to a lower likelihood of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, liver cancers, Parkinson's disease and more". This proves the benefits of drinking coffee.

Answer 9

This is true. In a PubMed article, it states how one of the biggest benefits of coffee is reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. This article analyzes a number of studies, covering about 457,000 individuals. In this analysis, they say, "...each additional cup of coffee consumed per day is associated with a 7 % reduction in the excess risk of diabetes". The conclusion also says, "There is little evidence of health risks and considerable evidence of long-term health benefits for adults consuming moderate amounts of coffee (3–4 cups/day)". Considering they looked at a number of studies, this is true.
