So, is coffee really good for your heart? Yes, yes, we are talking about the benefits…
The researchers analyzed some of the best new experiments published this year about coffee and heart health, reports the Chronicle.info with reference to TSN.< /p>
Let's look at the results of studies the benefits and harms of coffee for humans.
Coffee reduces the risk of stroke by 21%
A new study from the European Society of Cardiology showed that that drinking half a cup to three servings of coffee a day is associated with a lower risk of stroke, death from cardiovascular disease, says researcher Ph.D. candidate at the Heart and Vascular Center of the Semmelweis University in Budapest, Judith Simon.
People who drank this amount of coffee daily had a 12% lower risk of early death from any cause, a 17% lower risk of death from cardiovascular — vascular diseases and by 21% — stroke risk.
Coffee does not cause heart palpitations
For many, drinking too much caffeine can cause discomfort, tremors, and anxiety.
However, one of the common misconceptions about coffee is that the drink can cause palpitations,otherwise known as cardiac arrhythmias. A recent study published online in JAMA Internal Medicine proves that even three cups of the drink a day actually reduces the risk of arrhythmia by 3%. Of course, this does not mean that you should pour coffee, but if your norm is those same three cups a day, you should not worry about the heart.
Coffee protects the liver
In addition to potential heart health benefits, coffee may provide liver protection.
A study published in BMC Public Health in June found that coffee drinkers were 21% less likely to develop chronic liver disease.
Abuse of coffee backfires
It is worth to feel the difference between three and six cups of coffee a day. A study published this February in the journal Clinical Nutrition found that drinking six or more cups of coffee daily can increase the amount of lipids (fats) in your blood. This greatly increases the risk of heart disease.
Researchers also believe that cafestol, found in coffee, increases cholesterol levels.
However, the amount of cafestol can be reduced by using a paper coffee filter, so use a drip coffee maker with filters.
Amount of coffee per day
Every — its normal, but it is better to limit consumption to three cups of coffee a day. That's what doctors say.
