Moderate Coffee and Tea Intake Linked to Lower Heart and Metabolic Disease Risk

New study finds that consuming 200-300 mg of caffeine daily can reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, and stroke.

Research analyzed data from 188,000 UK Biobank participants aged 37-73 over a 12-year period.
Consuming 2-3 cups of coffee or up to 3 cups of tea daily showed the most significant health benefits.
Moderate caffeine intake was associated with better heart health and lower risk of cardiometabolic diseases.
High caffeine intake (over 400 mg daily) did not show negative consequences for cardiometabolic health.
Experts caution that excessive caffeine can raise blood pressure and suggest that the benefits are part of a balanced diet and lifestyle.
