I wouldn't lie and say I'm not a frequent coffee drinker, I am. I can't survive more than two days without coffee, my brain shuts down and everything irritates me. I am most definitely a coffee addict, but at the same time, I am well aware of the drawbacks as well as the advantages coffee brings.  

To clear out the misconception, coffee is not always unhealthy if consumed frequently or on a daily basis. As a matter of fact, a few research studies show that frequent coffee drinkers are comparatively more healthy as compared to those who do not drink coffee. To illustrate the concept further, coffee reduces the risk of heart diseases and strokes in a number of people. 

Some other benefits of coffee (on frequent grounds) includes; 

• your body will process glucose better 
• you will have an increased life span 
• decreased probability of falling victim to Parkinson's disease
• it will give your liver a protective layer. 

Either way, this does NOT in any manner that if you are not a frequent coffee drinker you will not be able to have a healthy lifestyle. And so, just for the sake of acquiring these benefits don't increase the amount of caffeine you drink. Excess of everything is bad and that applies to coffee as well! 
  

    

Around the world, coffee is believed to be the second most-consumed drink after water and is the main source of caffeine in the diet of the average person.
Millions of people drink coffee every day. All coffee lovers often ask themselves: "Is coffee good for you?" ". As is often the case in health matters, the answer is not binary as it depends on many factors, including the individual. Coffee seems to be a double-edged sword. In some people, it can make you more alert, more productive, and more motivated. And the opposite effect for some people, coffee can make them anxious, nervous, and unable to concentrate. Not only is coffee high in caffeine, but it is also high in antioxidants and contains small amounts of several micronutrients that the body needs. However, it has also been linked to many side effects, and health experts often advise certain groups of people to limit their intake in order to avoid unwanted health effects. According to the European Food Safety Agency Caffeine, the dose of caffeine that should not be exceeded per day in order to avoid side effects is 400 mg, which corresponds to approximately three cups.

I'll quickly skip over the fact that there are dozens (and even hundreds) of ways:

to obtain it: what is the coffee you collect, its origin, its composition, its state (bean, ground, soluble…), and more importantly, its intensity.

to prepare it: in what way, at what temperature, for how long, with what water… because I still see many still filling with hot tap water! (please read this: Can we cook with hot water?)

to serve and consume it: in how much water (for the soluble), at what temperature, and finally, how long after serving it you consume it; but also, do you add sugar; but also, do you eat it with something like candy.

Already, it should be consumed without sugar, without hot tap water, and with good quality coffee.

Then, in order not to feel fatigued of the "dehydration" type, the famous aftermath of coffee, you should always consume a little water.

To arrive at the balance sheet, we will finally get closer to its active molecule, caffeine. And its effect, which is to reduce the effect of drowsiness.

But be aware that classical studies are not a good source for your own body. Indeed, every individual has a different metabolism. Ten things to know about caffeine

Some will absorb caffeine faster, others more slowly, and everyone will have a different period of effect.

Coffee when it is not drowned in 5 sugar stones has many health benefits. It contains several antioxidants and phenolic compounds. Since it is widely consumed, it may contribute to the antioxidant capacity of your daily diet. For example, in Norway according to a study, it is the food that makes up the majority of the total antioxidant in people's diets.

The antioxidant capacity of plasma greatly increases after drinking a 200ml cup. This links the preventative effect of coffee on certain diseases. In these antioxidants, we find a majority of phenolic acids (caffeic and chlorogenic acids). For one cup, you will ingest 70 to 340 mg of phenolic acid, which is slightly higher than the phenolic activity for 150 g of fruit (plum, apple, cherry, or kiwi).

Another great benefit of coffee is the lack of calories. So much the better because we're talking about one of the most consumed drinks in the world ... The habit of sweetening your coffee should be quickly abandoned if you are into it. It is above all a rehabilitation to taste. Stop sweetening your coffee tomorrow and hang in there for 2 weeks. You will certainly dislike the taste during this period, but then you will not feel the difference.

Coffee is also involved in many other clinical studies aimed at determining the extent of its benefits (cancer, diabetes, Parkinson's, etc.).

Coffee enthusiasts across the planet who enjoy their hot (or chilled) cup of coffee in the morning may not be thinking about its health benefits or potential risks. Did you know? Coffee has been subjected to a long history of debate in this history. For instance, in 1991, it was included among the possible carcinogens by WHO. By 2016, it was exonerated. The research showed that coffee was not linked to an increased risk of cancer. On the other hand, a decreased risk of particular cancers was found among people who regularly drink coffee once smoking history was accounted for properly. According to some additional accumulating research, when consumed in moderation, coffee may be a healthy beverage. However, in 2018, one of the U.S states passed legislation that this beverage must bear a cancer warning label.

I have read and learned all this information in an article shared on hsph.harvard.edu., which, to me, is a reliable source of information. An 8-ounce cup of brewed coffee contains nearly 95 mg of caffeine. A moderate amount of coffee is defined generally as three to five cups in a day or 400 mg of caffeine on average, as per the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.

Coffee is a mixture of numerous chemicals. A cup of coffee that you enjoy in a cafe or a coffee shop is likely to be different compared to the one you brew at your home. Our responses to caffeine or coffee can vary across individuals. If you take a low to moderate amount of caffeine, you may feel an increase in energy, your ability to focus, and alertness. However, higher doses may trigger anxiety, insomnia, restlessness, and even an increased heart rate. Yet, there is a lot of research that supports it being healthy due to its health benefits.

A large amount of evidence suggests that consuming caffeinated coffee doesn't increase the risks of cancers and cardiovascular diseases. As a matter of fact, consuming three to five standard cups of coffee every day is linked with a reduced risk of developing numerous chronic illnesses.

Let's not forget the fact that this standard and acceptable amount of coffee may not be tolerable for some individuals, especially people who face a hard time controlling their blood pressure. Drinking coffee is not something completely mandatory in order to remain healthy. Nor is it necessary to increase the amount of coffee just to remain healthy. There are numerous dietary strategies that you can follow to improve your health. For instance, if you are sensitive to caffeine, try decaffeinated coffee. How you make coffee also tells a lot about its health benefits. If this hot beverage includes whipped cream, sugar, saturated fat, and extra calories, you may not be able to enjoy many health benefits.

It depends on how much coffee they are drinking and what kind of coffee they are drinking. Coffee can be beneficial in moderation, but too much caffeine can be detrimental to your health. Making sure to drink coffee in moderation, and choosing coffee that is not loaded with sugar and additives, can help keep coffee drinkers healthy.
