Research in Finland and Sweden has recently shown that drinking coffee in moderation can help reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Scientists believe that the high level of antioxidants found in coffee may contribute to this benefit. Other studies have also shown that coffee can help protect nerves which in turn can help prevent Alzheimer’s. The health benefits of coffee are numerous in scientific literature. A large number of other studies have revealed even more benefits from drinking coffee e.g. coffee may also help to protect against diabetes and also protect the liver from disease.
Bear in mind that you need to drink brewed coffee to reap the benefits. The process of manufacturing instant coffee destroys all the anti-oxidants which give coffee it’s special health benefits.
A word of warning, there are side effects to going overboard with coffee. If your drinking more than 3 cups a day then coffee can cause hallucinations , insomnia, heart palpitations and even effect a woman’s chances of getting pregnant.
Based on all this research the “excited by life” recommendation is to have one brewed coffee a day (without sugar). The health benefits of moderate intake are just too numerous to ignore so rush out and buy that brewed coffee maker today as a health insurance policy for the future.
