Your morning cup of coffee might offer some health advantages.

Having coffee in the morning may offer greater health advantages compared to consuming several cups throughout the day.

A recent study suggests that it may be more beneficial for you to enjoy coffee in the morning instead of throughout the day.

A team of researchers investigated over 40,000 adults in the United States who were involved in extensive studies focused on health, nutrition, and lifestyle choices.

Researchers identified two separate coffee consumption patterns: individuals who enjoy coffee in the morning and those who sip it throughout the entire day.

In general, the research indicated that individuals who consumed coffee solely in the morning had a lower risk of mortality compared to those who did not drink coffee at all and those who drank it throughout the day.

Details of a study on coffee consumption

Over one-third (36%) of the participants in the study were classified as morning coffee drinkers, while approximately 14% were identified as all-day coffee drinkers.

The research group, headed by specialists from Tulane University in the United States, monitored participants in the study for nearly ten years.

Throughout the follow-up duration, approximately 4,295 participants in the study passed away.

Considering multiple factors, the researchers discovered that individuals who consumed coffee in the morning had a 16% lower likelihood of mortality compared to those who abstained from coffee altogether.

They had a 31% lower risk of dying from heart disease.

All-day coffee drinkers showed no decrease in risk when compared to individuals who abstained from coffee entirely.

The researchers indicated that consuming larger quantities of coffee was "significantly" linked to a reduced risk of mortality, but this was only true for individuals who had their coffee in the morning, as opposed to those who sipped it throughout the day.
