All the coffee lovers should be throwing a coffee party right now because, according to a new study, coffee can increase life expectancy by at least 10 years. The non-coffee drinkers are at risk of dying younger to coffee drinkers in the coming years.

The study was conducted by JAMA, they have pronounced that it does not matter if it’s one cup a day or five; as long as you are drinking coffee, the chances of you being dead in the upcoming years are slim.

If you are a numbers fanatic, then drinking one cup of coffee a day decreases your chances of dying by 8% and if you are someone who drinks six to seven cups per day lowers the risk of death by 16%. We kid you not! However, if you are drinking eight cups of coffee or more every day then your chances of dying are decreased by 14%.

There has been plenty of talk about how drinking coffee can increase your life expectancy but also increase your chances of getting cancer, but that statement has been proven false by The World Health Organization. Furthermore, Dr.Erikka Loftfield from National Cancer Institute stated Our study provides further evidence that coffee drinking can be part of a healthy diet and offers reassurance to coffee drinkers”

Even though coffee has its benefits but that does not mean that you go overboard by drinking the countless amount of coffee daily. This raises a question which is how much coffee is good for you and how many cups you should be drinking in a day?

German scientists have proven that drinking four cups of coffee a day is good for your heart however, this might not work for everyone since every person has got a different medical history and for some people coffee is not going to work the same way it works for others.

Science Daily explained Our results indicate a new mode of action for caffeine,” said Haendeler, “one that promotes protection and repair of heart muscle through the action of mitochondrial p27. These results should lead to better strategies for protecting heart muscle from damage, including consideration of coffee consumption or caffeine as an additional dietary factor in the elderly population. Furthermore, enhancing mitochondrial p27 could serve as a potential therapeutic strategy not only in cardiovascular diseases but also in improving healthspan.”

There are many studies which also prove that drinking coffee helps to reduce inflammation from the body and decrease the chances of getting diabetes due to the improvement in how our body is able to use insulin. These researches could also possibly back up the claim that coffee can increase life expectancy.
