Coffee is a popular drink made from the roasted beans of Coffea fruits
(Coffea arabica, Coffea canephora)
.
It contains caffeine and chlorogenic acid.The caffeine in coffee works
by stimulating the central nervous system (CNS),
heart, and muscles. Chlorogenic acid might affect blood vessels and how
the body handles blood sugar and metabolism.
People most commonly drink coffee to increase mental alertness. Coffee
is also used for diabetes, cancer, heart disease,
high blood pressure, dementia, and many other conditions, but there is
no good scientific evidence to support most of these uses.
