What are the health benefits of drinking coffee? drink more coffee, okay? Asians drinking coffee can reduce the risk of death

In the past, drinking coffee was the pursuit of mood, but now it is more about the pursuit of health. Studies have shown that drinking coffee in moderation may become one of the healthy lifestyles.

Drinking coffee can reduce the risk of death among Asians, according to a study.

A joint study by a team of researchers from four Asian countries, including South Korea, shows that drinking coffee can reduce the risk of death in Asians, the Yonhap news agency and Interface News reported. This is the first time that coffee has been proved to have this effect in Asian people.

A joint research team of Food and Nutrition Department of Seoul University and Preventive Medicine Teachers of the School of Medicine of Seoul University said on the 10th that a follow-up survey of 330000 people from South Korea, China, Japan and Singapore, which participated in the Asian team Alliance (Asia Cohort Consortium), found that drinking more coffee had a significant effect on reducing the risk of death.

Among them, in the International Journal of Epidemiology (International Journal of Epidemiology), the team compared the risk of death among three people who drank 1 to 3 cups, 3 to 5 cups and more than 5 cups a day.

The data shows:

Among men, men who drank one to three cups a day had a 22 per cent lower risk of death than those who did not drink coffee, while men who drank three to five cups or more had a 24 per cent lower risk of death.

Among women, those who drank 1 to 3 cups of coffee, 3 to 5 cups and more than 5 cups reduced their risk of death by 20%, 35% and 28%, respectively.

The team analyzed that coffee intake can not only effectively reduce the risk of death, but also reduce cancer-induced mortality and cardiovascular disease-induced mortality.

Among them, in terms of reducing cancer-induced mortality, it was reduced by 15% for men and 19% for women; in terms of reducing cardiovascular disease-induced mortality, men and women each decreased by 27%.

The team speculates that coffee contains chlorogenic acid (chlorogenic acid), caffeine, trigonelline (trigonelline) and magnesium, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and regulate blood sugar levels.

But this is not the first report to confirm the health benefits of drinking coffee in moderation.

In February, a study in the New York Times reported that drinking coffee may reduce the risk of heart failure, such as drinking two cups of coffee a day, reducing the risk of heart failure by 31%.

The study pointed out that compared with all other dietary factors, there was a more significant correlation between coffee drinking and long-term risk reduction of heart failure, in which drinking one cup or less of one cup of coffee a day had no effect, and drinking two cups a day reduced the risk by 31%. Drinking three or more cups reduced the risk by 29%, but not enough subjects drank more than three cups of coffee a day. So it is not clear whether drinking more coffee will further reduce the risk.

In addition to reducing mortality and the risk of heart failure in past studies, a study in June showed that drinking coffee helps protect the liver.

No matter what type of coffee they drink, regular coffee drinkers have a lower risk of chronic liver disease, such as coffee drinkers have a 21% lower risk of chronic liver disease than non-coffee drinkers, 20% lower risk of chronic liver disease or fatty liver, and 49% lower risk of dying from chronic liver disease, the report said.

In addition, in February last year, Wu Jun, a doctor of medical science in the United States, also explained that because coffee contains a strong antioxidant, it can inhibit the excessive immune response and strengthen the body's defense mechanism against free radicals.

"Coffee" is widely regarded as a psychoactive substance because it contains "caffeine", and past reports have pointed out that coffee is becoming one of the healthy drinks.

A large number of reports have pointed out that drinking 3 to 5 standard cups of coffee a day is associated with a reduced risk of many chronic diseases, but it is important to remind you that you should do everything in moderation, as does coffee, and that eating the right amount of coffee every day is good for your health. but excessive consumption of caffeine can also have adverse effects on the body.
