Coffee is the second most consumed drink in the world, after water, because its unparalleled taste and stimulating effect has conquered the palate of millions of people.

Until only two decades ago, it was claimed that its consumption caused serious side effects because of its high caffeine content.

However, thanks to the investigations carried out during the last years, it has been determined that the fact of ingesting it moderately has numerous benefits for the body, thanks to its great nutritional richness.

Today, many people consume regularly in their diet but they do not know all the virtues he has for the body.

In addition, there are people who continue to think that they must not consume any more because it is harmful.

Know that this is a food with surprising qualities! In this article, we will reveal in detail the reasons why we should all consume it.

1. It is rich in antioxidants

One of the main benefits of coffee is its high content of antioxidants, which outnumber fruits and vegetables.

They are powerful molecules whose main function is to inhibit the oxidative damage caused by free radicals, responsible for chronic diseases and premature aging.

2. It increases the energy

This is perhaps one of the best-known virtues of coffee because it allows you to work or study longer without suffering fatigue.

Caffeine, one of the main active ingredients, has a stimulating effect that helps to increase concentration and yield.

3. It reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes

It is estimated that there are more than 300 million people worldwide who are struggling with type 2 diabetes.

This chronic disease, which is characterized by high blood sugar levels, can be prevented through the consumption of coffee.

In the study conducted by the American Chemical Society, it has been shown that people who take up to 4 cups of coffee a day decrease between 23% and 50% the risk of suffering from this pathology.

4. It protects the liver

The liver is the organ responsible for carrying out important tasks for the health of the whole organism.

However, sometimes it deteriorates and develops chronic diseases such as hepatitis or fatty liver.

According to research conducted by the Duke-NUS School of Medicine (Singapore), ingesting four cups of coffee reduces the likelihood of suffering from fatty liver.

In another study published in 2006, it has been shown that people who drink at least one cup of coffee a day are less likely to suffer from cirrhosis.

5. It increases the feeling of well-being

The National Institute of Health in the United States has shown through a study that people who consume coffee in a moderate way reduce by 10% the risk of suffering from depression or having negative emotions.

According to the author of the research, Honglei Chen, this effect could be due to the action of antioxidants.
