Coffee helps women age more healthily, 30-year study suggests
- Over a 30-year period, researchers examined how caffeine consumption from coffee during middle age influenced healthy aging in a large group of female participants from a longstanding health study.
- They defined healthy aging as living past age 70 free of 11 major chronic diseases, with good mental, physical, and cognitive health, based on data since 1984.
- The study found that typically consuming about 315 mg of caffeine daily, roughly three small coffee cups, was linked to a 2% to 5% higher chance of healthy aging per extra cup, up to five small cups.
- Dr. Sara Mahdavi explained that although previous research has connected coffee consumption to specific health effects, their study is novel in evaluating how coffee influences various aspects of aging over a period of thirty years, with findings to be shared at a 2025 conference in Orlando.
- The findings suggest moderate caffeinated coffee may support healthy aging but benefits are modest compared to overall lifestyle; not all caffeine sources like soda confer benefits and genetic factors influence outcomes.
