Coffee is considered the most popular drink in the world. Nothing invigorates in the morning and helps to concentrate on work like a cup of coffee.
But even though scientists have proven the benefits of drinking coffee, an overdose makes the drink harmful.
Researchers at the University of Coimbra have been able to calculate the exact number of cups of coffee per day that prolongs life.
The results of the study were published in the scientific journal Ageing Research Reviews.
To do this, it was necessary to analyze 85 previously conducted studies around the world.
All scientific works were devoted to the topic of how coffee consumption affects health.
Coffee norm
Experts took into account all factors, as well as the composition of the drink, and came to the conclusion that it is three cups a day.
In this case, a person will receive the necessary amount of antioxidants that can protect cells from destruction.
The amount of useful substances is sufficient to restore the body after inflammation.
Additional years of life
According to the latest scientific data, coffee contains about 2000 bioactive compounds.
If you drink three cups of this drink a day, you can extend your life by 1.84 years.
Another nice thing is that these almost 2 extra years of life can be spent in good health, which is also not bad.
