Coffee - is known as a drink that gives courage in the morning, but scientists managed to find out yet another of its properties. As research has shown, coffee is useful for men, as its regular use helps to prevent problems with erection. Scientists argue that coffee works like a known drug against impotence - improves blood flow to the genitals.
A new study was conducted at the Health Research Center, which is located at the Texas Institute. Experts are sure that black coffee can replace such an expensive drug as Viagra. In order to avoid accidents during sex, scientists recommend that men drink 2-4 cups of coffee a day, while the drink can help, even if problems with erection are already available, although coffee will not get rid of them completely.
The properties of coffee have been studied by scientists for a long time, it was already established earlier that it helps prevent melanoma and diabetes mellitus. To do this, you need to drink at least 4 cups of coffee a day, this is the amount of caffeine that reduces the likelihood of these diseases.
This study, perhaps, will please real coffee lovers and make those who do not like this invigorating and fragrant drink think about.
According to the research, coffee not only prevents the development of skin cancer, but also improves the health status of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Experts noted that such an effect is possible only if you drink on day 4 or more cups of high-quality black coffee without the addition of sugar.
Also, a few months ago, scientists found that lovers of a strong fragrant drink will live longer. Studies have shown that people who drink 4 or more cups of coffee a day die less often from cancers, heart and vascular problems, diabetes, viral infections.
Such results were obtained by scientists after a large-scale study in which about 100 thousand volunteers took part. Scientists observed the health status of participants for several years and found out that those who drank several cups of coffee a day were more healthy than those who did not drink this drink at all.
Scientists have found that 3-5 cups of coffee every day (about 40 mg) do not lead to health problems that are attributed to this drink in other studies, but help to slow down the development of cancer cells. True, coffee helps prevent just a few types of cancer, but it's also good.
Also, scientists noted that coffee lovers rarely commit suicide, it is probably due to the fact that coffee invigorates, improves mood, makes all the senses more vivid.
In the states, 65% of Americans pamper themselves with a cup of coffee every day during breakfast.
Disputes about the benefits and harms of a fragrant drink have been going on for a long time, but in any case, do not abuse this drink, as everything is good in moderation.
By the way, according to some information, coffee grains in 30-35 years on our planet can be cut in half, and after another 30 years completely disappear.
