5 reasons you should drink coffee

Many people can off the top of their head, give you several reasons why you should not drink coffee, however few have been able to praise the drinking of it.

However, there are several reasons why you should never stop drinking coffee, here are 5 of such reasons:

1. Physical performance

It has been scientifically proven that coffee improves the body performance. Having  a cup of black coffee about an hour before workout can improve your performance by 11-12%.

This is because caffeine increases adrenaline levels in your blood. Adrenaline is of course the  hormone which helps you to prepare for physical exertion.

2. Losing weight

Coffee can also help the body lose weight. How? Coffee contains magnesium and potassium, which helps the human body use insulin, regulating blood sugar levels and reducing your craving for sugary treats and snacks.

3. Burn fat and stay focused

Coffee also helps you stay focused. Caffeine helps fat cells break down body fat and use it as fuel for training.  Moderate caffeine intake, 1-6 cups a day, helps you focus and improves your mental alertness.

4. Coffee lowers risk of death

Coffee lowers risk of death. Studies have shown that coffee drinker’s overall risk of premature death is 25% lower than of those who don’t drink coffee.

Coffee reduces risk of cancers. One study has shown that coffee may decrease the risk of developing prostate cancer in men by 20 %, and endometrial cancer in women by 25 %.

5. Coffee reduces risk of Parkinson

The reasonable consumption of coffee is about 2–4 cups per day and this will lower risk of stroke.

Coffee reduces risk of Parkinson’s disease. Studies have shown that regular coffee drinking decreases risk of Parkinson’s disease by 25 %. There’s evidence that coffee causes activity in the part of the brain affected by Parkinson’s.
