The Long List of Coffee Health Benefits

Coffee has recently been proven to have a number of health benefits, and that list seems to be getting longer...

Cancer: Coffee has not been proven to cause cancer, and it even reduces the risk of mouth, throat, and colon cancer.
Heart Disease: Coffee does not raise the risk for heart disease, and it even offers preventative protection.
Diabetes: Coffee lowers the risk of developing type II diabetes.
Alzheimer's: Coffee strengthens the blood-brain barrier, which often becomes damaged and leads to Alzheimer's.
Osteoporosis: Excessive caffeine intake can lower bone density, which should not have an effect in moderate coffee drinking. Adding milk to your coffee on a regular basis can offer you the calcium you need to reduce the risk of osteoporosis.
Depression: Coffee can elevate energy levels and reduce depression.

How Does Coffee Affect Your Health?

Where do I even begin? Coffee has so many new developing health benefits that it is a shame not to drink it!

In a study done by the Harvard School of Public Health, coffee drinkers showed a reduced risk for gallbladder disease and gallstones. This was compared to those who drank decaffeinated coffee and did not see the same benefits. Coffee also does have the ability to reduce the risk for Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's. The studies were done on heavier coffee drinkers who consumed up to 3.5 cups per day, so this is wonderful news for Java junkies.

Coffee also has been proven to improve IQ and short-term recall. This means that if you want to function better at work on a daily basis and become an all-star employee or employer, then drink to your health with a cup of Joe!
