Benefits of Coffee

During this time there are many who think about the harmful effects of coffee consumption. But actually, if taken properly (not excessive) coffee has some benefits for preventing diseases that attack our bodies.
Coffee promotes wakefulness and improves memory, concentration, and reaction time. According to some studies, coffee reduces the risk of Parkinson's disease, cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. It also reduces the symptoms of asthma, protects against liver disease and prevents the formation of gallstones.

Coffee might have anti-cancer properties. researchers found that coffee drinkers were 50% less likely to get liver cancer than nondrinkers. A few studies have found ties to lower rates of colon, breast, and rectal cancers.

Coffee has no carbohydrates, protein or fat, but it does contain many antioxidants, as many as in green tea, which may protect from certain diseases. It has only two to three calories per cup, without milk or sugar,  and contains fibre, magnesium and certain B vitamins.
Heavy coffee drinkers may be half as likely to get diabetes as light drinkers or nondrinkers. Coffee may contain chemicals that lower blood sugar. A coffee habit may also increase your resting metabolism rate, which could help keep diabetes at bay.
Two substances in coffee, kahweol and cafestol, raise cholesterol levels. Paper filters capture these substances, but that doesn’t help the many people who now drink non-filtered coffee drinks, such as lattes. Researchers have also found a link between cholesterol increases and decaffeinated coffee, possibly because of the type of bean used to make certain decaffeinated coffees.

But it should be noted also that Those who consume more than four cups a day may experience side effects like insomnia, anxiety, irritability, headache, nausea, diarrhea and increased heart rate.
