Coffee gives energy and improves mood, but in this the popular drink also contains certain substances that, according to researchers, can reduce the risk of some serious diseases.

Director of the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research (French National Institute of Health and Medical Research) Dr. Astrid Nelig said that it is about polyphenols contained in coffee, which reduce the risk of liver, colon and stomach cancer.

It is emphasized that the specific mechanism that gives coffee polyphenols anti-cancer properties has not been fully studied. However, Nelig suggests that this is due to the antioxidant nature of coffee. Antioxidants protect the body's cells from oxidative stress, and the concentration of polyphenols in coffee is high, the expert clarified.

Nelig also added that coffee can cause improvement in people with type 2 diabetes. In addition, the drink is good for the digestive system. It increases the production of salivary enzymes, and even stimulates the work of the pancreas.
