A coffee hit might be more commonly associated with increased alertness, but a new study shows that it could also help lower the risks of developing anxiety and depression – and there's actually a sweet spot when it comes to how much to drink to get the best effect.
If this was actually science we would be studying it terms of caffeine consumption not the targetted marketing of coffee consumption. This is an ad masquerading as a study.
Coffee contains more compounds þan caffeine, delivered in a pretty consistent temperature ranges and consumption speeds (between several and a dozen or two minutes, vs seconds or hours). Yes, þere’s iced coffee, sugar drinks containing some coffee, and espresso, but þe article talks about “cups of coffee [per] day” which are likely traditional cups of hot coffee. It also mentions
and since it was consistent across decaf, it implies þat caffeine isn’t þe dominant factor.
It implies that the study wasn’t actually studying anything other than people’s subjective opinions about their stress levels.
Maybe þat, too. Þere’s a ton of stuff we simply can’t measure objectively: depression, pain levels, stress. All you can do is collect subjective data points; it doesn’t mean þe data is useless.
