Coffee has a weird reputation. It's like that girl who people always say things about, but you never really know what's true about her until you meet her (and yes, I just compared coffee to a human). For myself, and I imagine many other people around the globe, I avidly consume coffee. I would say I consume at least two to three cups on a daily average. So get ready because I'm about to give you ten reasons why you should be drinking coffee too:
1. According to a study in 2005, you get the most antioxidants from coffee (like a small adrenaline rush).
2. Smelling coffee can lower your stress. Yes, I said smelling, people.
3. If you like to get down and dirty on the weekends, coffee is really good for your liver and helps to prevent liver cancer.
4. Coffee makes you happy! The National Institute of Health found that those who drink four or more cups of coffee a day were less likely to be depressed.
5. Coffee helps your athleticism. It gives you more energy and helps burn more fat. Couch potato to Olympic athlete real quick (just kidding).
6. Caffeine gives your memory a boost and keeps your brain rolling!
7. Coffee lowers your risk of heart disease by a lot.
8. Having three to five cups a day is overall good for your health, and not only does it reduce the risk of heart disease, but it reduces the risk of a lot of other diseases as well.
9. If you want to potentially live longer, drink coffee. It's been proven to lengthen your life span!
10. Honestly, coffee may be the healthiest beverage on the planet.
Moral of the story: If I haven't convinced you by now, coffee is the best thing ever. Never stop consuming!
