Surprisingly healthy habit: Drinking coffee
Historically speaking, coffee has been thought to be very unhealthy. People have been pointing fingers at your daily cup of java for decades, claiming it’s the culprit behind health horrors like cancer, heart attacks, and stunted growth.
All in all, coffee has been blamed for everything short of bewitching the neighbor’s crops. In reality, it’s actually good for you because coffee is full of antioxidants. And studies have proven that it offers many health benefits.
Specific properties contained in coffee have been shown to fight Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Type 2 diabetes, and liver cancer. It has even been shown to improve memory.
According to research, women who drink 2 to 3 cups of coffee daily are 15% less likely to be depressed than those who stay away from this liquid gold. So chug away to your heart’s delight.
But we must warn you that you should probably avoid coffee drinks full of ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate chips, and what-have-you!
