Delicious, starting the day with a good cup of coffee. We Dutch know how to deal with this, on average we drink about two cups of coffee per person per day. This has made us a standard part of the top 10 most coffee-drinking countries in the world for many years. Something to be proud of? Yes thankfully, because several researchers tell us that coffee is healthy. Fantastic news, isn’t it? We like to list some great research so that you can continue to enjoy your cup of coffee with peace of mind and heart.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    Coffee contains important nutrients<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Coffee not only contains caffeine, it is also packed with various vitamins and minerals. All nutrients you need every day.<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Riboflavin (vitamin B2): 11% of the recommended daily allowance (RDA).<\/li>\n
    • Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5): 6% of RDA<\/li>\n
    • Manganese and potassium: 3% of the RDA<\/li>\n
    • Magnesium and niacin (B3): 2% of RDA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Coffee lowers your cholesterol<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Coffee contains antioxidants in addition to vitamins and minerals. For example, these increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in your body. Among other things, this lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease.<\/p>\n

          Coffee is low in calories<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          There is a reason you may continue to drink black coffee when you need to watch your weight. After all, a cup of coffee of about 250 ml contains only 2 calories and no fats or sugars. So you can enjoy every coffee moment without guilt.<\/p>\n

            Coffee hydrates<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Contrary to reports that coffee dehydrates you, multiple studies have shown that coffee can be just as hydrating as water. Researchers at the University of Birmingham tested the fluid levels of 50 men who drank 3 to 5 cups of coffee a day. They concluded that this average consumption of coffee has similar hydrating qualities to water.<\/p>\n

              Coffee improves blood circulation<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Not only our brains and energy levels get a boost after a cup of coffee. According to scientists, it also stimulates blood circulation in our bodies. As many as 30 percent of study participants experienced better blood circulation after regular coffee. Blood provides oxygen, and the more oxygen muscles receive, the better our bodies function. Thus, coffee also contributes to physical condition.<\/p>\n

                Coffee drinkers live longer<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                You read correctly, coffee lovers simply live longer. Researchers delved into the coffee-drinking habits of more than 700,000 people in the United States and Europe for two studies in the Annals of Internal Medicine. The studies involved a thorough analysis of data from a large group of Americans and Europeans from diverse backgrounds. The conclusions? Coffee drinkers are especially at lower risk for cardiovascular disease, and disorders of the digestive system. Coffee also reduces the risk of diabetes, some cancers and kidney disease.<\/p>\n

                Keep in mind, however, that many of these health benefits are boosted by caffeine in coffee. But the same substance when overdosed can actually have negative effects on your health. So, also enjoy coffee in moderation! Moreover, we are talking about black coffee with no added sweeteners, sugar or milk. Obviously, sweetened coffees are not very conducive to your health.<\/p>\n

                Note: Drinking coffee is not equally healthy for everyone. In people with chronic diseases, stress, burnout and\/or a COMT polymorphism, for example, drinking coffee can lead to (worsening of) symptoms.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
