Moderate coffee consumption benefits heart health

thetimes.com

Recent research indicates that coffee may benefit heart health and reduce the risk of premature death. Drinking one to three cups daily is linked to a healthier heart, while excessive consumption may not provide additional benefits. Experts suggest delaying your first cup of coffee for about an hour after waking. This may help avoid spikes in cortisol levels, which can lead to increased caffeine tolerance. A "coffee nap," where caffeine is consumed before a short nap, is also being explored for its potential benefits. Caffeine affects individuals differently, with some experiencing side effects at lower doses. The NHS recommends limiting intake to 400mg per day, especially for pregnant women. While moderate coffee consumption can enhance alertness, it should not replace sleep.
