A good cup of specialty coffee can be good for your health. Modern research shows that moderate coffee drinking has several different health effects and extends our lifespan.
Antioxidants: A good cup of specialty coffee is not only good, but it is also healthy. Coffee contains over 1,000 different substances that actively work in our body. In fact, coffee is Norwegians' most important source of antioxidants, which protect the cells' DNA from oxidative stress.
Psychosocial: Coffee also increases the amount of the pleasure hormone dopamine in the brain. Psychosocially, coffee can be positive, because we often drink coffee in social contexts. Having a good time with others can also have a health-promoting effect.
Energy and performance: A cup of coffee also provides more energy and mental alertness: The caffeine in the specialty coffee can help increase energy levels and improve mental alertness and concentration. In addition, it can help improve physical performance by increasing levels of adrenaline and reducing muscle pain and fatigue.
Extends life: Drinking moderate amounts of coffee is also associated with a longer life - an intake of 2 to 5 cups of coffee a day has been shown in several studies to extend life and reduce the risk of death from any cause. Even those who only drink one cup of coffee a day reduce the risk of dying early by 12 percent, according to a large study conducted in the United States.
Disease prevention: Research also shows that coffee can protect against certain diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, Parkinson's disease and some types of cancer.
