Why Drinking Coffee Helps You Live Longer
New research reveals surprising health benefits for regular coffee drinkers....
We know, we know. It seems like everyday a new study comes along that says coffee will either zap your fertility or make you live forever. But scientists have now found a solid link between caffeine consumption and reducing elevated levels of inflammation, which triggers most of the major diseases attributed to "old age."
In a new study published in the journal Nature Medicine, a team at Stanford University analyzed blood samples from 100 participants, young and old. Most of the older participants had increased levels of activity in their inflammation-related genes; however, those who reported regularly drinking caffeine had very low levels of activity in their inflammatory gene pathways, more on par with younger participants.
