The researchers found a correlation between how much caffeine the women typically drank (which was mostly from coffee) when they were between 45 and 60 years old and their likelihood of healthy aging. After adjusting for other factors that could affect aging, such as their overall diet, how much they exercised and whether they smoked, those who consumed the most caffeine (equivalent to nearly seven eight-ounce cups of coffee per day) had odds of healthy aging that were 13 percent higher than those who consumed the least caffeine (equivalent to less than one cup per day).
Aw, dang, seems like it needs to be nearly black coffee. I like to drink my cream and sugar with a splash of coffee.
I used to be like this but once I found really good coffee beans (to grind myself) I only needed a bit of agave and an unsweetened oat milk creamer.
Part of the change is due to going vegan (no more mint Oreo dairy creamer) but it forced me to discover better flavors.
Yeah, I really should try some quality coffee. I’m usually just doing instant. Even gas station coffee usually tastes better.
Nice idea with the agave.
My tip for those starting away from instant is to get the aeropress as it’s a pretty low cost of entry and doesn’t take up much space. Get the XL if you need a larger cup. The V60 is affordable as well, but you’ll need something to pour the coffee with. Good luck on your journey.
Thanks!
I’m just using a Hario pour over coffee set, it was like $30 altogether.
Part of my story also involves getting away from Keurig because the machines are so unreliable and the K-Cups are so terrible for the environment.
Yeah, i got my set for the same price, but couldn’t control my pour, so i picked up the hario air.
Thanks!
Mmm… pseudo-science behind a paywall. Fuck off
Is https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10630722/ real science for you enough?
This announcement doesn’t exist in a vacuum.
Wait, what? I admit it’s not peer-reviewed, but it’s hardly pseudo-science. I even shared a gift article. Also, it was written by Alice Callahan who is a Times reporter covering nutrition and health and she has a Ph.D. in nutrition from the University of California, Davis.
Whoa, I average probably 4 per day, and people always tell me that is too much. 7 cups a day takes some effort.
Effort? I down at least 7 a day. I have a coffee in the evening too 😂
To be fair though, it is like, instant coffee lol so it isn’t the best
I usually do instant because I’m cheap and lazy. And I do like one after dinner to help me fall asleep.
By the 5th or 6th one, I’m usually tired of it for the day. During the week is 3-6, and weekends is 1-3.
