How drinking coffee could affect your health in the long run
Researchers at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge England found that women who drink a moderate two to three cups of coffee a day have significantly less body fat than women who don’t drink any coffee at all. They also found that older women between the ages of 45 and 69 who drank coffee had even less body fat. The results were the same whether the coffee was caffeinated or not, if the participants were smokers or nonsmokers, or if they had chronic medical conditions or were in good health.
Specifically, the body fat of women between the ages of 20 and 44 who drank two or three cups of coffee each day was 3.4% lower than that of those who did not drink coffee. That includes abdominal fat and overall body fat. Women 45 and older who drank two or three cups of coffee reported an additional 4.1% decrease in body fat. The results for men were not considered statistically significant.
Another coffee study was recently published, this one from the University of South Australia. Researchers used a genetic risk score to analyze the coffee drinking habits of more than 330,000 study participants with respect to multiple disease outcomes.
