In recent years, we’ve seen the number of studies researching coffee nutrition facts skyrocket — and while some of the results signal this beloved beverage might have some serious health benefits, there is a lot of science backing coffee nutrition health benefits, too.

In fact, in July 2017, a pair of large studies published in the Annals of Medicine actually found drinking coffee seems to promote longevity. Looking at roughly 700,000 people from different racial backgrounds, cultural and ethnic backgrounds, drinking more coffee was linked to a lower risk of death.

The first study looked at non-white populations and found drinking two to four cups of coffee translated into an 18 percent lower risk of death during the study period compared to non-coffee drinkers. Drinking more coffee appeared to lower the chances of dying from cancer, heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, diabetes or chronic lower respiratory disease.
The second study looked at people living in 10 European countries, finding that the top coffee drinkers were 25 percent less likely to die during the 16-year-study compared to the non-coffee drinkers.

You might be surprised to know coffee beans are a high-antioxidant food and coffee is one of the leading contributors of disease-fighting antioxidants in the American diet. Because it can help reduce inflammation, which is the root of most diseases, according to research, coffee is now being linked with the following benefits:

1.protection against neurodegenerative diseases
2.improved heart health
3.cancer protection
4.diabetes protection
5.ability to fight depression
6.increased energy and concentration
7.better physical performance
8.improved asthma control
9.lower risk of select gastrointestinal diseases

The two most commonly grown types of coffee are arabica and robusta. While not a big contributor of vitamins and minerals to your diet (with the exception of being a riboflavin food), coffee is a much better choice than energy drinks, soda, and sweetened teas or juices. It contains no sugar or carbs and virtually no calories.
One eight-ounce cup of regular coffee contains about: (5)

2.4 calories

0.2 milligrams vitamin B2 riboflavin (11 percent DV)

Interesting article. I love the smell of coffee, but not the taste. I'd have to add a lot of milk and sugar, which I'm sure would negate most of the health benefits. I guess I'll stick to tea
