The perks of drinking coffee
Some people cannot live without this drink, but do you know the advantages of that habit?
Full of antioxidants and nutrients, coffee has the potential to stimulate the body in a way that no other food can. Check it out.
Caffeine stimulates the nervous system, increasing the energy abilities.
The stimulation of the neurons helps to prevent and decrease the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.
Coffee regenerates proteins of human DNA, and it even has the capacity to emend some wrong information. This may also help to prevent some types of cancer.
Coffee consumption can help decreasing the genetic tendency of some people to type 2 diabetes, mainly due to its regulatory function of sugar in the blood.
It is also a cell regenerator, that’s why who drinks coffee is less likely to have a stroke, cerebral vascular accidents and other damage to the arteries.
An organ that also benefits from drinking coffee is the liver: the more caffeine, the less is the chance to develop cirrhosis.
There are studies showing that drinking two to four cups of coffee a day reduces the risk of death by 10 percent. Beyond the fifth cup, the effect can already be counterproductive, thus accelerating the propensity for nervous disorders and heart conditions.
The physical functions of memory, mood, alertness, reflexes and cognition are all stimulated by caffeine, so coffee ensures much better performance.
Parkinson’s disease can also be prevented by coffee consumption throughout life.
Coffee also has very encouraging results in the risk of developing other types of dementia: the higher the consumption, the lower the incidence.
