Coffee Consumption Linked to Longer Life Expectancy in Sedentary Adults: Study
Coffee lovers, rejoice! Your daily caffeine fix might just be the key to a longer, healthier life. Recent research published in the journal BMC Public Health has revealed a fascinating link between coffee consumption and longevity, particularly for those leading a sedentary lifestyle.
According to the study, non-coffee drinkers who spend six or more hours a day sitting face a 60% higher risk of mortality compared to their coffee-loving counterparts who sit for less than six hours. This highlights the potential benefits of incorporating coffee into your daily routine, beyond just the morning pick-me-up it provides.
The study, which followed over 10,000 adults in the US for up to 13 years, found that sedentary coffee drinkers had a 24% lower risk of death compared to non-coffee drinkers who sat for at least six hours a day. The anti-inflammatory properties of compounds found in coffee, such as caffeine and polyphenols, are believed to play a role in reducing the risk of metabolic problems and inflammation associated with sedentary behavior.
