Impact of drinking coffee on your health

Navigating the science and sage advice on embracing coffee in your daily ritual

Written by Shohini Basu

With quotes from Janani G.V (nutritionist)

Coffee, rich in antioxidants like chlorogenic acid, melanoidins and phenylalanines, boosts cognition, enhances heart health and primes exercise. Often advised by sports nutritionists as a pre-workout drink, it revitalises the nervous system and reduces exercise fatigue.

Research establishes a connection between coffee consumption and its beneficial results such as reduced risk of type 2 diabetes and liver ailments, enhanced cognition and alleviation of depression. However, experts caution against overconsuming it because of its potential adverse effects.

Consuming three to four cups of coffee in a day is said to be safe. However, overconsumption and dependence on it for daily activities should be avoided. To optimise its benefits, do not have it with meals as anti-nutrients like tannins in coffee can impede the body’s absorption of nutrients.
