Recent studies show that caffeine can reduce sleep quality and hinder the body's recovery, even if a person falls asleep on time and does not notice any obvious sleep disturbances. The response to caffeine is individual and depends on many factors.
A new study has shown that regular coffee consumption is associated with a lower risk of cirrhosis, liver cancer, and mortality from liver diseases. The positive effect was observed even with just one or two cups a day. However, coffee does not replace other preventive measures and may not be suitable for everyone.
Moderate consumption of coffee or tea is associated with a lower risk of dementia and a slower decline in cognitive function with age, according to a large-scale study. The greatest benefit was observed in those who drank 2–3 cups of coffee or 1–2 cups of tea per day.
Moderate coffee consumption (up to four cups a day) may slow down cellular aging in people with severe mental disorders, but exceeding this amount does not provide additional benefits.
