Sipping one to two cups of coffee daily may help prevent chronic diseases like diabetes and hypertension. Research also suggests it could lower the risk of heart issues and colorectal cancer.

Researchers from the University of Coimbra in Portugal have uncovered coffee’s potential anti-aging benefits. Their study found that, on average, regular coffee drinkers could live 1.84 years longer than those who don’t indulge. As we age, our risk for many diseases drops significantly, and coffee seems to play a role.

This is thanks to its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant components, which work wonders for health and longevity. Caffeine and chlorogenic acid, two key compounds in coffee, help combat heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and inflammation-related conditions.

While coffee offers numerous health benefits, it may not be a miracle cure for liver diseases.

Dr. Ryu Dam’s team at Soonchunhyang University Hospital in Seoul examined the relationship between coffee consumption and fatty liver disease using data from the UK Biobank.

The study analyzed 455,870 participants and grouped individuals based on their liver health and daily coffee intake. Using advanced statistical techniques, such as inverse probability weighting (IPTW), researchers sought to uncover how coffee might influence survival rates for liver disease.

At first glance, drinking 1 to 2 cups of coffee daily seemed to improve liver health and survival rates.

However, the coffee-liver connection disappeared after applying IPTW—a method designed to account for rare events and isolate cause-and-effect relationships.

In the end, regular coffee consumption didn’t significantly impact liver disease mortality rates.

Dr. Ryu explained, “We’ve dug deeper into the data and found that while coffee boosts overall survival, it’s not the liver’s superhero we once believed. This advanced analysis eliminated confounding variables, giving us a clearer picture.”
