Health Benefits of Coffee – Coffee Protects Against Type 2 Diabetes

The health benefits of drinking at least one cup of coffee a day are growing in number. Today we review the advantages of this drink that has been consumed in the population for several centuries and is also one of the most popular and most ingested in the world.

Coffee is good for the heart

Whether coffee is good or bad for your health has always caused a lot of controversy. Having discovered not long ago that it is good for your eyes or even your liver, new research now links it to heart health. So much so, that coffee and the consequent reduction of calcium in the coronary arteries (an indicator of the existence of atherosclerosis) thanks to it, minimizes the chances of suffering a myocardial infarction. The results have been published in the British Medical Journal.

Coffee is good for the liver

The positive reasons for drinking coffee do not stop growing. If we already knew that it was a good ally against diabetes, Parkinson's or cancer, now a new study from the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda (USA) reveals that it is also beneficial for the liver. The work has been published in the journal Hepatology.

Coffee genome sequenced

Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages in the world and now, an international consortium of scientists, with the participation of the University of Barcelona (Spain), has just sequenced its genome. This achievement will help both to improve the cultivation of coffee and to increase its unconditional aroma and flavor.

Coffee is good for the eyes

Coffee is one of those products that the more research is done on them, the more beneficial properties for our health are found. Now, a new study carried out by Cornell University in New York (USA) affirms that it also prevents the deterioration of vision and possible blindness due to retinal degeneration.

Coffee reduces the risk of death from liver cirrhosis

The healthy effects of a good cup of coffee are many: as an antidepressant, to combat bad breath, or in general as a tool to enhance our health. Now, a team of researchers from the Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School of the National University of Singapore has found that it can also reduce the risk of death from liver cirrhosis by 66%.

Smoking stunts the sense of taste

Coffee is one of those pleasures that few dislike. Its aroma and flavor make it one of the most consumed beverages in the world. Well, now a study developed by a team of researchers from the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital (France) has determined that smokers are unable to taste something as simple as coffee because the toxic substances contained in cigarettes hinder the regeneration work of the taste buds.
