It’s estimated that roughly 83% of adults in the United States drink, according to data from the National Association (NCA). That number is up from 78% just one year prior, indicating that more people are starting their day off with a cup of Hot Joe.
There’s a good reason for the growing number of coffee-drinkers: in addition to providing a quick pick-me-up, coffee actually offers some surprising health benefits. A study published in the Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology (CJASN) found that participants who consumed the most amount of sweetened sodas had a 23% greater risk of developing kidney stones. However, participants who consumed the most amount of coffee had a 26% lower risk of developing kidney stones.
You might be surprised to learn that drinking coffee can help with weight management. Caffeine — the key stimulant within coffee — literally burns fat. Furthermore, studies have shown that caffeine can boost metabolic rates by roughly 3-11%.
And when your metabolism is faster, you’ll burn fat and calories with greater ease.
Of course, most people drink coffee because of its delicious flavor — and there’s plenty of flavors available from which to choose. From traditional black and “morning blends” to French vanilla, hazelnut and more, the possibilities are endless.
