Benefits of Coffee for Life

A cup of coffee in the morning may provide more than just an energy boost. 



Coffee is one of the world's most popular drinks. Here are some of benefits of consume coffee 

Studies show that coffee drinkers have a much lower risk of several serious diseases. Here are the health benefits of coffee. 




Can Improve Energy and Make You Smarter


Caffeine blocks an inhibitory neurotransmitter in your brain, which causes a stimulant effect. This improves energy levels, mood and various aspects of brain function. 

After you drink coffee like Summer Expresso the caffeine is absorbed into your bloodstream. From there, it travels to your brain. 

In the brain, caffeine blocks the inhibitory neurotransmitter adenosine and it leading to enhanced firing of neurons. 

Many controlled studies in humans show that coffee improves various aspects of brain function — including memory, mood, vigilance, energy levels, reaction times and general mental function. 


Protect Your Liver


Coffee drinkers have a much lower risk of cirrhosis, which can be caused by several diseases that affect the liver. 

Your liver is an amazing organ that carries out hundreds of important functions. 

Several common diseases primarily affect the liver, including hepatitis, fatty liver disease and many others. 


Contains Essential Nutrients


Coffee contains several important nutrients, including riboflavin, Pantothenic acid, manganese, potassium, magnesium and niacin. Many of the nutrients in coffee beans make their way into the finished brewed coffee. 

A single cup of coffee that you can enjoy at our Arkopilago Coffee Shop are contains : 
· Riboflavin (vitamin B2): 11% of the Reference Daily Intake (RDI). 
· Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5): 6% of the RDI. 
· Manganese and potassium: 3% of the RDI. 
· Magnesium and niacin (vitamin B3): 2% of the RDI. 

Though this may not seem like a big deal, most people enjoy several cups per day — allowing these amounts to quickly add up. 



Can Improve Physical Performance


Caffeine can increase adrenaline levels and release fatty acids from your fat tissues. It also leads to significant improvements in physical performance and stimulates your nervous system, signaling fat cells to break down body fat. But it also increases epinephrine (adrenaline) levels in your blood. 

This is the fight-or-flight hormone, which prepares your body for intense physical exertion. 

Caffeine breaks down body fat, making free fatty acids available as fuel. 

Therefore, it makes sense to have a strong cup of coffee about half an hour before you head to the gym. 



Can Help You Burn Fat


Several studies show that caffeine can increase fat burning and boost your metabolic rate. 

Other studies indicate that caffeine can specifically increase fat burning by as much as 10% in obese individuals and 29% in lean people. 

However, it’s possible that these effects diminish in long-term coffee drinkers. 



May Protect You From Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia


Coffee drinkers have a much lower risk of getting Alzheimer's disease, which is a leading cause of dementia worldwide. This condition usually affects people over 65, and there is no known cure. 

However, there are several things you can do to prevent the disease from occurring in the first place. 

This includes the usual suspects like eating healthy food and exercising, but drinking coffee may be incredibly effective as well. 

Several studies show that coffee drinkers have up to a 65% lower risk of Alzheimer's disease. 


May Lower Risk of Certain Types of Cancer


Cancer is one of the world's leading causes of death. It is characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in your body. Coffee appears to be protective against two types of cancer: liver and colorectal cancer. 

Studies show that coffee drinkers have up to a 40% lower risk of liver cancer. 

Similarly, one study in 489,706 people found that those who drank 4–5 cups of coffee per day had a 15% lower risk of colorectal cancer. 


Can Fight Depression and Make You Happier


Coffee appears to lower your risk of developing depression and may dramatically reduce suicide risk. Depression is a serious mental disorder that causes a significantly reduced quality of life. 

It’s very common, as about 4.1% of people in the US currently meet the criteria for clinical depression. 

In a Harvard study published in 2011, women who drank 4 or more cups of coffee per day had a 20% lower risk of becoming depressed . 


May Help You Live Longer


Several studies show that coffee drinkers live longer and have a lower risk of premature death. Given that coffee drinkers are less likely to get many diseases, it makes sense that coffee could help you live longer. 

Several observational studies indicate that coffee drinkers have a lower risk of death. 

This effect appears particularly strong in people with type 2 diabetes. In one 20-year study, individuals with diabetes who drank coffee had a 30% lower risk of death. 

If you enjoy its taste, don’t hesitate to pour yourself a cup or more throughout the day at Arkopilago Coffee Corner at Grand Sahid Jaya Hotel, Jakarta.
