We love coffee: 7 benefits for your health

For many people, coffee is an integral part of starting the day - its aroma, its taste, its feel. But there is much more to this little cup than just a stimulant. When consumed correctly, coffee can support your health in a gentle way. Here are 7 good reasons to enjoy coffee every day:

1. Makes you alert and promotes concentration

Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system - which increases alertness, concentration and mental performance. Perfect for the start of a productive day!

2. Rich in antioxidants

Coffee contains many antioxidants that fight free radicals in the body and thus protect your cells. For many people, coffee is even the main source of antioxidants in everyday life.

3. Good for the liver

Studies show that moderate coffee consumption (about 2-3 cups per day) can protect the liver - for example against fatty liver or liver cirrhosis. Coffee also helps to keep certain liver enzymes in balance.

4. Can influence cholesterol

Filtered coffee has no negative effect on cholesterol levels. On the contrary: it can support blood circulation. However, unfiltered preparation methods (e.g. French press, Turkish coffee) contain substances that can increase LDL cholesterol - so make sure you drink the right amount.

5. Stimulates the metabolism

Caffeine can increase energy consumption in the short term - in other words, it can give your metabolism a slight boost. But instead of seeing coffee as a "slimming agent", it is more of a little helper in everyday life.

6. Good for the mood

A coffee moment can really do you good - physically and mentally. Studies suggest that coffee drinkers are less likely to suffer from depression.

7. Long-term protection

Regular coffee consumption is associated with a lower risk of diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Not a miracle cure - but a small building block for greater well-being.

What should you look out for when drinking coffee?

• 2-3 cups per day are sufficient.

• If possible, drink without sugar or cream.

• Pay attention to the way you prepare it - especially if you have cholesterol or stomach problems.

• Always listen to your body - it will tell you what is good for you.

 Coffee is more than just a ritual - enjoyed in moderation, it can be a real companion for your health. So treat yourself to a little time out with a warm cup - you're doing yourself some good.
