Experts say coffee contains a number of useful nutrients, including riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), magnesium, potassium, and various phenolic compounds, or antioxidants which benefit  the human body in various ways.

Help  the body against diabetes

In 2014, researchers who gathered data on over 48,000 people found that those who increased their coffee consumption by at least one cup per day over four years had an 11 per cent lower risk of type 2 diabetes than those who did not increase their intake.

Reduce risk of cancer

Evidence based medicine also concluded that consuming any type of coffee appears to reduce the risk of liver cancer, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and cirrhosis.  Recent health report by CNN claimed that drinking up to three or four cups of caffeinated or decaffeinated coffee a day reduces the risk of developing and dying from chronic liver diseases.

Reduces risk of cardiovascular diseases

Study conducted by researchers in 2018 found that drinking three to five cups of coffee per day may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by 15%. Drinking one to three cups daily also seemed to be associated with lower overall mortality resulting from any cause.

Help in weight lose

There is some evidence suggesting that consuming coffee may help people lose weight. Although coffee may provide some benefits in reducing obesity, it is not a substitute for eating a balanced diet and exercising often.

Solution to inflammation

Coffee beans according to experts also contain polyphenols, which are a type of antioxidant. Antioxidants can help protect the body against free radical damage. Free radicals are a type of waste product that the body naturally produces as a result of certain processes.
