5 Reasons Why Coffee Is Good For You!

February 16, 2022 By Yummiest Food Leave a Comment

We’ve all had days where getting up felt like a chore until our cup of magic portion — coffee! A good cup of coffee can make our day. Sipping on my flavored blend of marshmallow and caramel flavored cup of coffee by Coffee Roasters Geelong I wondered, is coffee actually good for me?

Apart from the reason that I can’t function properly without a morning cup, are there other benefits that I’m reaping without being aware of? This got me into researching and I now have not one, but five reasons why it’s beneficial. So without further ado, let’s dive right into the 5 reasons why coffee is good for you.

1.  It Improves Your Mood

We’ve all experienced that after our cup of coffee, we’re less cranky in the morning. This is actually scientifically proven! According to this study, people who have more than 3 cups of coffee are likely to stay out of depression by about 10% from those who don’t have coffee.

Another Harvard study backs this up too. The study done back in 2013 claimed that 2 cups of coffee a day can cut the risk of suicide by 50%!

Both studies show that coffee can act as an antidepressant — a mild antidepressant. Long story cut short, coffee helps in producing the happy hormone in our brain aka, dopamine — that’s a good enough reason to win a spot on this list!

2.  Enhances the Memory!

One cup of joe a day doesn’t just improve your mood, it also improves your memory. This claim is backed by this study conducted at John Hopkins University! The research was done with two groups, one with the caffeine intake of an average American and the other that didn’t have coffee. The results proved that caffeine, in fact, enhances memory but the claim doesn’t extend to long-term memory.

3.  Burns Calories Faster

A lot of us are leading unhealthy lifestyles with fast food and increased screen time. This puts you in need of activities and a diet that aids in burning some extra calories. This need is exactly why coffee is good for you!

Coffee boosts your metabolism which makes it one of the best drinks for weight loss. Another healthy fact, coffee being rich in potassium and magnesium helps reduce sugar cravings while regulating blood sugar levels at the same time! If you go to the gym, having a cup of coffee right before your workout is a good idea!

4.  Antioxidant Source

University of Scranton’s Researchers has claimed that coffee is the best source of antioxidants. The study also reveals that a basic coffee serving has more antioxidants than a regular serving of blueberries, oranges, raspberries, and grape juice!

5.  Lowers the Risks of Catching Some Common Diseases

There have been numerous researches with claims that coffee lowers the risk of cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, heart disease, and Type 2 Diabetes. Since it’s packed with so many antioxidants, coffee helps lower the risk of getting sick!
