Last Updated: 2026/07/19, The perennial argument against drinking coffee is that it raises blood pressure. High blood pressure should not be underestimated, which puts you at risk of stroke and heart attack. According to foreign media reports, the fact is that coffee does not increase the risk of high blood pressure. Italian researcher Dr. Giuseppe Grosso says it will only cause your blood pressure to jolt within hours of drinking it.

The perennial objection to coffee is that it raises blood pressure. High blood pressure should not be taken lightly. It puts you at risk for stroke and heart attack.

According to foreign media reports, the fact is this: coffee does not increase the risk of high blood pressure. Italian researcher Dr. Giuseppe Grosso says it will only make your blood pressure surge within hours of drinking it-and only for people who drink very little coffee.

If your body isn't used to caffeine, chemical reactions can cause narrowing of blood vessels. But after a few hours, the blood vessels will return to normal and the effects will gradually disappear. If you've been drinking coffee for more than a month, your body builds tolerance mechanisms and your blood pressure is affected again, says Dr. Prediman Krishan Shah.

For most people, a brief impact on blood pressure is harmless. Even people with high blood pressure are safe to drink 1-2 cups of coffee a day.

What's more, Dr. Shah said, a brief increase in blood pressure has no effect on the risk of chronic hypertension later on.

In fact, Dr. Grosso's research shows that people who drink three to four cups of coffee a day actually have a lower risk of high blood pressure than non-coffee drinkers, as long as they don't smoke. This may be because coffee is rich in potassium, magnesium and antioxidants that lower blood pressure.

Other studies suggest coffee may significantly reduce your risk of diabetes, kidney stones, multiple sclerosis and certain cancers. Not to mention its fatigue resistance. So, coffee!
