Removing Coffee From Your Diet Can Help You Lose..
I start every morning with a freshly brewed, 16-ounce cup of black coffee. Sometimes I will add a splash of oat milk to it, but I drink it black most days. So when I came across a funny Instagram reel talking about one’s love for coffee, I had to do my rendition.
I don’t know if you knew this, but research shows that removing coffee from your life will help you lose 60% of your will to live…
Jokes aside, coffee is one of the richest sources of antioxidants in the human diet. It even has more than red wine (1, 2)! Every sip of coffee delivers hydrocinnamic acids, potent antioxidants that help neutralize free radicals and protect your DNA from damage (3).
Antioxidants play a crucial role in human nutrition by protecting our cells and DNA from oxidative stress. Every time you breathe and use oxygen to create energy, the body produces pro-oxidants as a byproduct.
These pro-oxidants (free radicals) aren’t a bad thing in moderation. They are needed for the body to function correctly, but excessive free radicals can lead to chronic inflammation. Luckily, the antioxidants found in coffee can keep this balance in check. So cheers to another reason to drink your coffee every morning.
