How much coffee is too much? In this episode of Daily Value, we look at the link between coffee consumption and cognitive health. Drawing on a recent study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association (PMID: 39673298), we examine how bioactive compounds in coffee, such as chlorogenic acids and trigonelline, may protect against cognitive decline and inflammation.

Discussion Points:

  • Insights from the Swiss Atrial Fibrillation Cohort, showing enhanced processing speed and visuomotor coordination and attention in individuals drinking a certain threshold of coffee daily compared to non-coffee drinkers
  • a predicted cognitive age nearly 7 years younger in high coffee consumers.
  • Practical considerations for incorporating coffee into a healthy diet, including dosage, tolerance, and quality.
