Myth: In life, some people like to drink coffee, while others say that if you want to stay healthy, you'd better give up coffee. Is drinking coffee good or bad?

Truth: Scientists' systematic summary of relevant research results shows that most of the evidence supports the view that drinking coffee is good for health. The premature death rate, the incidence of type II diabetes and the reduction of some cancers are all related to drinking coffee.

For example, after summarizing 20 studies involving 970,000 subjects, it is found that compared with people who rarely drink coffee, people who drink coffee frequently have a lower risk of premature death (for whatever reason) of 65,438+04%. Even drinking 1 to 2 cups of coffee every day can reduce the risk by 8%.

However, some people need to pay attention to their coffee intake. Studies have proved that drinking a lot of coffee is related to the increased incidence of gastric cancer, which will aggravate heart disease.
