Here are the three best ways to drink coffee to maximize its health benefits.

Drink coffee without sugar and cream

Black coffee, without added sugar or cream, is considered the healthiest option. According to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, black coffee is rich in antioxidants such as chlorogenic acid, which has anti-inflammatory properties and reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Black coffee contains virtually no calories, which helps support effective weight management.

Adding sugar or heavy cream can increase calories and saturated fat, reducing the benefits of coffee and increasing the risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Drink coffee at the right time of day

When you drink coffee has a big impact on its effectiveness and impact. Experts recommend drinking coffee mid-morning or early afternoon, when cortisol levels in the body are lower.

Cortisol, a stress hormone, typically peaks in the early morning. Drinking coffee when cortisol is high can reduce the effectiveness of caffeine and cause feelings of anxiety.

Avoid drinking coffee after 2pm to avoid affecting sleep quality.

Limit your daily coffee intake

Maintaining moderate coffee intake is important to ensure health benefits. The American Dietetic Association (AND) recommends that adults consume about 3-4 cups of coffee (equivalent to 300-400 mg of caffeine) per day.

Excessive caffeine consumption can cause problems such as increased heart rate, anxiety, and sleep disturbances.

For pregnant women, the recommended amount of caffeine is reduced to 200 mg per day to avoid the risk of affecting the fetus.

Coffee can be a powerful health ally if consumed properly.

Drinking black coffee without sugar, choosing the right time, and maintaining reasonable consumption are the optimal ways to take advantage of the benefits of this drink.

Studies from reputable health organizations have shown that drinking coffee properly can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and improve cognitive function.

However, each person should listen to their body and adjust their coffee drinking habits to suit their personal health.
