Drinking coffee in this way can prolong life.

There are many studies that have explored the effects of coffee on the human body, and the latest large study shows that people who drink an average of 0.5 to 3 cups of coffee per day have a 12% lower risk of early death and a 17% lower risk of cardiovascular disease, but the key point is that people must drink ground coffee rather than instant products.

According to comprehensive foreign media reports, the latest research report published in the journal "European Preventive Cardiology", scientists used about 500,000 cases in the British Biobank to conduct a large-scale study of more than 10 years on the public's drinking and consumption habits of coffee, and finally reached the above conclusions.

After ruling out other factors, the team found that people who drank an average of 0.5 to 3 cups of coffee a day had a 12 percent lower risk of premature death than others, and a nearly 5 percent lower rate of cardiovascular disease versus stroke, though drinking more than 3 cups a day had no significant benefit.

However, the benefits of drinking this popular beverage are limited to raw bean ground coffee, and instant coffee does not have any effect on longevity.

The researchers speculate that this difference may stem from differences in the way coffee is made, that soluble coffee contains more caffeine and antioxidants, and that the concentration of acryloamide is generally high, which is associated with the risk of cancer and nervous system damage and may have adverse effects on life expectancy.
