A study published in the medical journal BMJ Medicine shows that you can avoid two important health problems simply by having a cup of coffee every morning.
A research team from Karolinska School of Medicine (Sweden), in collaboration with the University of Bristol and Imperial College London (UK), used data from nearly 10,000 people collected from existing genetic databases, focusing on variants associated with the rate of caffeine breakdown.
Researchers want to determine the link between blood caffeine levels and obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, according to the science news site Science Alert.
You can avoid two important health problems with just a cup of coffee every morning.
The results revealed that higher blood caffeine levels were associated with lower body mass index (BMI) and lower total body fat mass.
Furthermore, higher blood caffeine levels are associated with a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
The authors estimate that about half of caffeine's effect in reducing the risk of diabetes is due to a reduction in BMI.
Therefore, drinking unsweetened coffee could be a potential way to reduce body fat levels and prevent diabetes.
Previous studies have shown that moderate caffeine consumption leads to better cardiovascular health and a lower BMI. And this study adds further detail to the effects of coffee on the body.
Drinking unsweetened coffee may be a potential way to help prevent diabetes.
Researchers explain: Small, short-term trials have shown that caffeine intake leads to weight loss and fat reduction, but the long-term effects of caffeine intake are still unknown. Therefore, with coffee being consumed widely around the world , even small metabolic effects of caffeine could have significant health implications.
The research team explained that caffeine's remarkable effect may be due to its ability to increase thermogenesis (heat production) and fat oxidation (converting fat into energy) in the body, both of which play crucial roles in overall metabolism.
The authors concluded that higher blood caffeine levels may reduce obesity and the risk of type 2 diabetes. However, further research is needed to confirm the results, according to Science Alert.
Experts say that drinking 2-3 cups of coffee a day can help you live longer, but you should limit the amount of added sugar, and black coffee without sugar is best.
